Connecting LAN port #1 or #4 of the modem to LAN port #1 or #16 on the switch?
Ensure your inbetween LAN cable is of good working quality. CAT6 is recommedned. Swap out LAN cables for a known working cable between the modem and the PC to test.
The switch is unmanaged so should be plug in play with out any configurations.

I have tried connecting lan port #1 or #4 of the modem to lan port #1 or #16 on the switch and it still no internet. I have tried all different combinations and still cuts the internet out. I have also unplugged the router and switch and then rebooted both of them. Also have done a factory reset on the modem/router. I'm starting to wonder if the switch is bad. But I'm not sure why it would cut out the internet.

Try a different switch to see.
You did swap LAN cabling correct?
Try the switch with a different router if you have one, just connect them gether with a PC to see if it works. You don't have to connet the router to the internet or modem.
