Netgear c6220 wifi issue
I recently moved to new place, i used to have comcast cable internet, i was using netgear c6220 model for wifi. Now i switched to Spectrum that is the only internet available. Anyway i received modem from spectrum, when i connect my laptop to modem with wire i get internet, but when i try plugging c6220 router it initially showed me wifi signal but internet was not working. After trying restart, router reset now i dont even see wifi signal from router. Any idea how to fix it?

After pressing the reset button on the back of the modem for 15 seconds then release. Do you no see the default SSID name coming from the modem at all? If it doesn't appear, the modem should be replaced.

The C6220 is a modem/router combo device. It doesn't have a wan port to connect the spectrum modem to so you can use it in router only mode.
You can't go spectrum modem------>modem/router combo device.
Potentially you can just run the C6220 on spectrum but its only approved up to 100mbps speeds and they'd need to provision it. have they done so?
