That means it isn't connecting to the internet. But you knew that anyway.
Have you tried a factory reset on the thing?
There is a manual for the C7000 somewhere at the end of this link:
>>> C7000 | Product | Support | NETGEAR <<<
See page 108.
The tech advised it that option would only wipe my wifi settings, so I didn't do that at the time.

This thing is still under warranty. Start the return process. And don't fall for any attempts to extract money from you. That's a famous Netgear scam.
If you registered the thing in the MyNetgear on-line system, start there.
Please PM me.
