My iPhone Nighthawk App indicates it cannot detect my WiFi Network even though it is running. I get the same message from other Apps.
Is it just the iPhone that can't connect? What about other wifi clients?
I cannot find the login page for my Router on my MacBook.
What does that mean? You don't know what the login page is? You try to connect and it won't let you in?

I have unplugged my modem and router and it does not help. The lights on the Router are all on. I have an Ethernet Connection to my Mac and the Modem is connected to the router with an ethernet cable."
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
- Turn off and unplug modem.
- Turn off router and computers.
- Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
- Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
- Turn on computers and rest of network.
While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge.
You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:
Nighthawk Wi-Fi 5 (AC) Routers - NETGEAR Communities
You might like to search there for messages related to your problem.
I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.
In the meantime you could visit the support pages:

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.
Check for various troubleshooting tips.
You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.
I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
Thank you. Following that sequence got my App connected again, as well as other apps that were indicating there was no Wifi connection.
Could you advise how I access my Router Admin Page? I used to have it on my Mac, but can no longer see it.
I find it easier to monitor the router that way and it contains more information.
Thanks again, Jim

Answers to earlier questions would help.

Another question, what is the modem that sits between you router and the internet?
Try this?
