I'm lost. What has the phone got to do with this?

If you are talking about the wifi speed on your phone, 1 Gbps is unrealistic.
What is this cable box? A modem of some sort? What is it? Make and model?

So went to the netgear app and tried to login to and see what router getting for a ping, im unable to login as admin at all not for sure what password is! Went to netgear website login then did what it asked me to do, put in my serial number of the router it came to the asking my security password.
What "website" is this? If you mean the controls for your router, that is not a Netgear website it is the browser graphical user interface.
If you are talking about access to the browser's graphical user interface (GUI), the router's controls, these are on the label for your device, along with the default wifi login details. The username is fixed at admin. The default password is password.
If you are trying to use the "password recovery" option, there is a bug in Netgear's implementation of password recovery on some devices. You can get locked into a closed loop.
If password recovery is enabled, but you have not set the answers to the questions, it keeps sending you back to the beginning of the process. If you haven't already given the thing your personal answers, they are not in its memory and it has no way of knowing if they are correct.
If the standard factory password (password) does not work, then you will have to factory reset the thing to get back to that. Then either disable password recovery (check the manual for your device) or provide some answers to those questions.
