Did you power OFF both RBR and Modem for 30 seconds, then back ON with the modem first then RBR?

Yes and about a thousand variations.
Try a different modem or connect a spare router to the modem to see if it works, then connect the RBR to this spare router to see if it connects to the router, if not then the problem would be the RBR.

So I have been using a different modem since I posted the issue. For wired devices everything is working great. However for wireless devices I am having issues. The wired devices stay connected but I get a message that no internet access is available. I get the same message on an android phone, several iphone's, Surface tablets, and an ipad. All have the same message and cannot access the internet. Wow would it work only for wired devices?
