WLAN does not work after router reset (Technicolor)?

I have a Technicolor TG788ivn router. Today I did a router reset because I forgot the admin password.

After the router restart, the lamp is now at wireless red. I can still connect to my laptop with the wireless, but at each page is then "no connection to the Internet".

I've already started and reset it several times. Unfortunately, does not bring anything.

Moment the following lights are on:

Broadband and internet both green

Wireless in red

Have just googled for a long time, tried a lot and the router has now been started & reset several times. Unfortunately, does not bring anything. Can someone help?

And will the problem be solved by buying a new router?

Si

You probably have a provider router. The asks at your ISP if you have booked wlan or not. That can take time. So wait and see. You can connect via cable to check the wlan settings. Otherwise, I would advise to own router

Du

So the wireless router including gabs at the rented apartment to quasi. I did not have to buy anything myself. So it could be a possibility. If the problem is solved immediately, if I now buy a new router, bswp. Ne Fritzbox?

Si

If you buy a Fritz box from the free trade then the ISP has nothing more to do with the WLAN.

Look at the links in the video description.

Du

Sorry, I do not know about it that way. The links I look at me tomorrow. But in short, your answer is: buy Fritzbox brings no solution?

Si

But bring the solution. Who is your provider?

Du

I have to ask the landlord. I'm still new here and so far gabs no problems. But I do not have to look for a new ISP when I buy the Fritzbox, right?

If it's green, it has an internet connection!

Wireless in red? Does the WLAN in unencrypted. (that's bad for security).

That means if you want to connect, enter unencrypted, and do not enter a password.

Better of course is a connection directly with a LAN cable, because then you need no Wi-Fi password. Set the old WLAN password on the configuration page of the router. First of all, set the encryption back to WPA2!

Here is a quote from a manual: Proceed as follows:

1. Open the web browser.

2. Switch to http://A1modem.home or to the IP address of the A1 WLAN Box "Technicolor TG788A1vn" (default: http://10.0.0.138).

3. If the A1 WLAN Box is protected with a user name and password, the A1 WLAN Box prompts you for input. Enter the username and password and click "OK".

Si

Right. To take the Fritz Box in operation, you need the data for the connection to the connection. Depending on the provider, the registration is different. Can't it be easy That has changed by the reset of the WLAN name?

Du

That's silly. I do not want to change the provider. He is already furnished by the landlord. I can still connect to the WLAN. And if I turn off the router is also the wireless away

Si

Huh? So first I did not say that the provider should be changed. And as I understood you, wlan does not work and now suddenly?

Si

Du

I've now put the PW back to the old via the IP address and set up WPA2. Now the lamp is also lit green. You were right!

I still have no connection to the internet. There's, if I check the connection:

DSL: yes.

ATM: no activity detected on your DSL line

Ethernet: No Ethernet activity detected

Du

Oops misread. To the WLAN: I can connect my notebook with it, but I get no Internet connection (despite the connection to the router)

Si

Then look in the other video.

Du

And which encryption version (WPA PSK, WPA2 PSK, or both?) I have to take?

Ma

Take WPA2 PSK is the most secure encryption.

Du

Can you possibly help me? I'm shown that DSL goes, Internet but not. Can I solve the problem by buying a new router (ne Fritzbox). I'm pretty sure I triggered the problem by rescuing the Technicolor Router

Ma

It is certainly a provider router, which is either somehow fully automatic.

Or you have to manually type somehow the DSL access data or enter a setup PIN.

Maybe just once restart routers (power down… Wait… Stream of it) it can take up to 10 minutes to a stable active DSL connection is.

Unfortunately, I do not know it better. Surely you must have got a hotline phone number of the Internet provider (= ISP). Call, they'll tell you how to do it.

Or look on the homepage of the ISP, there are often described the instructions for the initial setup.

Unfortunately, you have reset everything by the factory reset. So you need the instructions for the initial setup.

I google again for you, if you call me the company name of the Internet provider.

Du

Actually, I just wanted to change the NAT types. From Strict (Nat type 3) to 1 or 2. Can I handle it all now simply by buying a ne Fritzbox?

Ma

If you have now over the router no Internet connection, probably missing the correct DSL access data.

As I already wrote, either it is a provider router which receives the access data fully automatic or you have to enter them now according to the instructions of the ISP.

Even if you now connect a brand new Fritzbox, still missing the DSL access data. Ask the Internet provider or look on the homepage of the ISP, otherwise that will be nothing.
