Double Nat R7000 and n450
I am computer literate, however, network illiterate. I'm going to explain my issue as best and simply as possible.
I have the following devices and the following attached to said devices:
...
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.

Yes. that is the correct model of modem I have. Sorry about that.
That is a router. So heed the words of myersw.
I see no built-in "modem only" mode for this device. So using the R7000 in AP mode may get rid of the "double NAT" issue.
