How is the router currently connected? Are you connecting it directly to the cable model (Cable modem > Ethernet cable> WAN Port of the RAX78)?
For the WiFi security, try setting it to WPA 2 only, and avoid using any mixed modes.
If possible as a test, give the WiFi radioon the netgear router a new SSID, and password (just to test if there is any weirdness with any saved WiFi networks on the client devices.

I can connect with an ethernet cable and connect to the internet. But, that defeats the wifi purpose.
I connect wireless but I had to disable all router security. Did this thru 192.168.1.1 & clicked wireless tab.
I tried using all security modes individually, including WPA 2, but internet was still blocked.
I'll try the SSID change, but I need to figure out how to do it.
