Nighthawk 6700v2 Not Working pls help :c

I have contacted Netgear and they helped me get this fixed.
Thank you for helping me though :)

Thanks man,
But after contacting the ISP and Netgear itself, I managed to figure out the trick in the netgear config and managed to make it work, barely.
Now the internet that is stream through the nighthawk is really slow - 0.06Mbps (tested on speed test google). My Fibre 100 connection promises 100Mbps (I know it's Megabit, not megabyte). I'm not sure what to do now haha.

What did you do to get it working? Would be helpful for others with similar problem to know how to get it working.
What is the Mfr and model of the Fiber ONT on the wall?
Does it have a built in router by chance?
Disable QoS and IPv6 on the NG router. Use a LAN cable connected PC for all speed testing.

Turns out I had to change my VID (or VLAN) setting on and onto 10. I was just messing around this morning and that seemed to work. I can't give you the model right now as I am at school, but I can assure you that the Fibre ONT does not have a built in router. Once I get home (in about 6 hours), I'll the LAN, QoS, IPv6 (although I'm pretty sure this is off).

Maybe a configuration issue. Try with out using any VLAN configurations and test.

So I disabled ipv6 and QoS an connected the ethernet to my computer, I still get very low data transfer.:/
Has it got to do with the NG's regions as it is still says US? As for the ONT : It is a model type 200 from the company 'Chorus'. ( I get a yellow blinking light for LAN 1 which suggests a good connection apparantly).
