verizon grey wifi icon on curve

ok i been reading these threads and im still lost. my wifi icon has been grey since yesterday and its not cool. im on verizon with a curve 8530 connected to netgear on my home router. it connects but wifi icon still grey and says wifi hotspot login then when i login it it just says connected. i need step by step instructions on how to fix this asap because i do not have limited data so im stuck

Sounds like a security issue on the router.

so what does that mean? what do i do?

i am updating to the latest software and we will see

Started for me last night. My post on page 3 of the thread titled "Wi-fi Hotspot Setup prompt problem" shows what worked for me.
