I had to factory reset the router when i initially setup the router because no internet was coming through the router, was onm phone with netgear support for 45mins trying all kinds of methods before it started working, and the firmware has been reinstalled.

theres got to be some reason why the router wont let internet through bc the only way i get internet through router when it stops is by unplugging and plugging in power to modem and turning power on and off with router? is it something to do with the MAC address?
