The model number is 802.11 n Dual Bamd gigabit. The ring is a doorbell that can take video but it must be connected wirelessly to the house wifi

Does it have a model number? Does it come with instructions which
tell you how to connect it to your wireless network?
This stuff isn't magic. Some stranger can't walk up to your front
door with a Ring video/doorbell gizmo, and connect it to your wireless
network. It must be configured, somehow. Either you need to tell the
Ring gizmo which wireless network credentials to use, or else you need
to go through a WPS set-up procedure.
Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation. Get the User Manual. Read. Do something similar
for the Ring gizmo. - michaelkenwardJan 20, 2018Guru - Experienced User
OK. As long as you have the C3700 set up to broadcast its SSID, it is really down to the ring to make the connection.
If the ring supports WPS, then it may be a "press two buttons" thing.
There is a manual for the C3700 somewhere at the end of this link:

See page 53.
But that is just a guess. You will have to explain what you are doing. Or talk to the people who support the door bell. Perhaps there is a user group for that. Is this the device?
