if the Netgear N450 modem/router is still acting as a router then the r7000 should be configured as an AP. Unless the N450 is configured as bridge only it is also a router so connecting the r7000 as a router causes the double nat. So either change the N450 to bridge or change the r7000 to AP.

CG3000Dv2? That's the only "modem", or Gateway, with that label.
