It might help if you told people what the modem is in front of this router. The model number could be useful. Is it, by any chance, also a router, with a set of LAN ports on the back?
The reason for asking is that a lot of people turn up here trying to put a router behind a modem that is also a router.
Having two routers on a network can cause headaches. The symptoms you see could be down to this. We won't know without more details.

I was having issues with a cm1000 which is not a router just a modem and a Netgear one at that. Sounds like the issues I was having

An Apple TV, or any other device, cannot connect to an CM1000 unless it is wired to the LAN port. That would rule out using the modem for anything else.
I see no sign in the manual that the CM1000 can act as a router.
