Nighthawk R6700v2 - No internet from modem - Gets IP for a few seconds then WAN link goes down

    If your older router works fine, Probably your R6700 is bad.  I would go to a local store with NG routers and a good refund policy and check out out for a few days.

     

    Also need to check your network adapter card as well. Make sure it's able to connect to a router, modem and a switch at 1000mb and not 100Mb.
