New Problem with Netgear Router
I have an X6 8000 Netgear router that I use for coverage of my home. For a while, it worked fine with my FIOS Quantum Gateway. But starting today, I am having the following problem:
FIOS, itself, and the FIOS router work fine and is able to connect to the internet
The Netgear router, for local wifi works fine
The Netgear router and the FIOS router see one another
The Netgear router cannot see the internet (even though the light on the device is white).
There have been multiple attempts to reboot both devices. Anyone have any recommendations?

I suspect that plemans has hit the target.
What is the make and model of this FIOS Quantum Gateway?
You may like to investigate how to put it into bridge (modem only) mode.
