Dear Netgear community, esp Kitsap:

Thanks for the reply.

I apologize for not providing sufficient information.

I decided to contact Netgear support. I spoke with Anish, who said that he was in Southern India.

He solved my problem. Using the Netgear Genie interface, we put the Nighthawk in Router mode.

We disabled the existing router.

$99.99 well spent.

Glad you got it working to your satisfaction. Recommend you save a backup configuration file in case your would need to reset your R6700 some time in the future.
