The CAX80 is a modem router. Turning of its wifi doesn't turn off the router bit.

It isn't easy to follow your message, so I am guessing that you have not set the MR60 in wireless access point (AP) mode.

If not, then you have piled router on router.

Two routers on your network can cause headaches. For example, you can end up with local address problems. Among other things, the other router can misdirect addresses that the Netgear router usually handles, such as routerlogin.net or the usual IP address for a router, 192.168.1.1.

This explains some of the other drawbacks.

Unless you have specific reasons for using two routers – to create two separate networks for example – it is often easier to use just one router and then to set up the second router as a wifi access point. Netgear advises this, as does just about every site you will visit.

You could put the CAX80 modem/router into modem only (bridge) mode and then use the second device as the router. Sometimes it is easier to put the second router into AP mode. But that has its own drawbacks:
