If it really is a modem/router – Google isn't clear – that could be the source of the problem. The Hitron might also have a similar login address or it is intercepting attempts to get to 192.168.1.1.
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 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.
