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.

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.

I don't know what that means or what you are doing. Your description needs to explain what you do step by step.
Is this the "modem" you have?
DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem Router | CODA-4680 | Hitron Americas
If so, it is a modem/router that is "Only sold through Service Providers".
This has its own login address. (By default it is 192.168.0.1.) So it is no surprise that your browser gets "lost" between two routers trying to tell it where to go.
To get it to work effectively with your Netgear router, you may .like to put it into modem only (bridge) mode:

When you have done that, remember to reset the Netgear router and set things up from scratch.
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
- Turn off and unplug modem.
- Turn off router and computers.
- Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
- Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
- Turn on computers and rest of network.
