Power off the router and disconnect it from the ISP modem.
POwer ON the router and connect one wired PC or laptop to the router.
Can you access the routers web page at 192.168.1.1 or routerlogin.com at all in any browser?
Does the wired PC get an IP address from the router at all?
If any of this fails, press the reset button for 10 seconds then release and setup the router from scratch.
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?

Hello,
Yes, I can access routerlogin.com. That is how I found about the internet port status.
I do get an IP but no internet traffic.
I have already power cycled the modem and router several times. I have a Netgear modem CM1000.
Just wanted to see if there was another alternative to resetting.

Reset and when the router is ready, pull the power plug for 15 seconds then back in. When the router is ready walk thru the setup wizard and after it completes, check the connection speed.
