I was trying to mess with the DHCP settings to get the DNS to go through the Pi but couldn't get anything to work so I tried to go back. Now my ending IP for DHCP wont let me change the first three sets of numbers aka the 255.255.255  .

That's the "Subnet mask" not the LAN IP address.

I don't know a lot about networking but I saw something about setting up a pi-hole and thought it would be pretty cool. Turns out, I completely effed my Wifi. 

The easiest way out is probably to reload a backup of the router's setting. If you didn't create that before you started playing around the next best bet would be to reset the router.

Then talk to the Pi people about the best way to set up your router.

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.

You may have done that already. I can't tell from your message.

I mention it because Netgear gave up on supplying paper manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
