No Power to my Netgear Rangemax Next Wireless N-Router WNR834Bv2

Have you checked the sticker on the router? Sometimes they actually print the security key on a sticker usually on the back or on the underside of the router.

You can also get to the routers internal settings, which will allow you to see or reset the security key, by plugging your PC directly into the router and typing in:192.168.0.1 in your browsers address bar. This should take you into the logon screen for your router.

If you need any kind of technical assistance you can contact support cell at http://www.vtechsquad.com/

As per the information received it indicates that your router is rebooting intermittently. This clearly indicates fault with the router. I would recommend you to replace the router.

I hope this information allows you to resolve this issue. Please revert back for any more assistance on the same.

Go NETGEAR Router and configure.

If you haven't tried using the reset button, should be an explanation how to use it on the router in the manual, try that.
Also, try a replacement power supply to the router, if you can get hold of one. As this maybe faulty.
However, likely faulty router, maybe due to power surge, due to lightning/bad weather.

Has your router been reset/rebooted recently? It sounds like it's been set to send wireless. Or it's possible you didn't secure it with encryption or a password on the route and someone got into it and changed the settings. Try rebooting it first (unplug power cable for about 5 minutes, plug back in) if that doesn't work, try loggin into the router with it's IP address and check the wireless settings. If that doesn't work, there should be a pinhole on it somewhere for the reset button, us a paper clip to press it for 5 to 10 seconds and this will reset the router to factory settings.

Are BOTH the top two boxes ticked under "advanced wireless settings" ?

Having a name in the basic wireless settings box does not mean it cannot be hidden I have my SSID set under basic but hidden under advanced this is a small security measure on my part.
