What is this Office network? Does the "Office" word means it has something to do with Microsoft?
What is Global protect? Do you mean GlobalProtect?
A few quick thoughts, if your office connection depends on some sort of VPN, you'll have to ask the people who made if for the settings you need to use.
Second, if you are trying to put two routers together you are asking for trouble.
Two routers on your network can cause headaches. For example, you can end up with local problems with addresses on your network. Among other things, the other router can misdirect traffic to addresses that the Netgear router usually handles, such as routerlogin.net or the usual default IP address for a router, 192.168.1.1.
This explains some of the other drawbacks.

Office is remote work. GlobalProtect is a VPN . The VPN settings are universal and other colleagues working in different cities are able to connect and work. I understand two routes cause signal interference and trouble. But this is now working with AT&T Modem/Router Wifi only even when NG Router is working for other devices. But the speed on AT&T Router is very low compared with NG router. I thought keeping AT&T router off and use it as modem only and connect to NG router will enhance the speed and connect to the remote network. But NG router is failing to connect.
