So, I went to my local big box store and bought the cheapest router they had. Brought it home and plugged it in. Within a few seconds I was connected and browsing. Tried plugging the netduma into that router and connecting to it. Nothing again, also nothing on my computer when I plugged into the netduma in this configuration. The netduma is currently on its way back to amazon. Debating on whether to try another one or not.
