And your Netgear device is? A model number?
Connected with what to the device? Wifi? Wired?
What firmware version do you have on the device?
A number is more useful than "the latest". (It may not be by the time people read this.) There can also be newer versions, or "hot fixes", that do not show up if you check for new firmware in the browser interface.
It might also help if you told people what the modem is in front of this router, if there is one. The model number could be useful. Is it, by any chance, also a router, with a set of LAN ports on the back?
The reason for asking is that a lot of people turn up here trying to put a router behind a modem that is also a router. That can complicate troubleshooting.- Netgear device is? A model number?
Netgear R7000
Connected with what to the device? Wifi? Wired? I tried to connect my laptop to the netgear with the two options wired and wireless.
What firmware version do you have on the device? I reset the netgear many times and I don't have access to the router page to update it.And the modem?
If this is a modem/router that can interfere when the browser looks for the address 192.168.1.1.
That's why we ask for the make and model number. Many ISPs provide modem/routers to customers.

Two routers on your network can cause headaches. For example, you can end up with local address problems. Among other things, the other router can misdirect addresses that the Netgear router usually handles, such as routerlogin.net or the usual IP address for a router, 192.168.1.1.
This explains some of the other drawbacks.

It may be possible to put the modem/router into modem only (bridge) mode and then to use the second device as the router.Hitron models Bridge Mode - TekSavvy Community
Sometimes it is easier to put the second router into AP mode. But that has its own drawbacks:
Disabled Features on the Router when set to AP Mode | Answer | NETGEAR SupportIt may be that your R7000 spotted the CODA-4680 on setup and picked a different IP address. As some of the manuals say:
"If the router detects a conflict with a WAN IP address,it changes its IP address to 10.0.0.1 or 172.16.5.1"
You could try them.
