OMG GUYS! FINALLY DID IT!!!!!!
My netgear wifi was giving me issue and not connecting to the 5ghz. And I had to restart my pc and or disabling the connection so it could connect withouht issue.

This was my step.
1. Turn off everything and disconnect everything entirely, and connected again with the cables.
2. Turn the Arris modem and reset it.
3.Turn off the Netgear and reset.
4. Turn the Netgear and reset it again.
5. Connect the yellow cable to the main modem
6. Wiat for everything to boot up and issue solve
Guys thank you SO much for all the help, even though it did took me a lot to figuer it out and or understand this issue. Thanks for the advices and the ideas, they help me also to understand a bit.
I din't have to do nothing inside the Arris gateway. Now I can acess the gateway of my netgear. And din't think with logic, I just wne bananas and disconnect and did the hardcore reset. Now I will go and watch a guide to set up everything on my netgear from the gateway.
P.s. Finally! honestly thanks, thanks. I'm happy.
Yes it is as is.
At the moment I am here in the gateway of the modem/router I have bought, trying to find the solution you have wrote. In the Lan set up to see what is the adress is assigned.
EDIT:
Should I edit the "Client IPv4 configuration"
In order to access the IP of the nighthawk router?
Is there is where I need to write the IP adress of the router so it allows it to open?
I don't know the model of your modem/router so I don't know what "Client IPv4 configuration" refers to.
You want to find the page on your modem/router that lists all of the attached devices and their IP addresses. That page may also have the settings to reserve IP addresses for devices, or there may be a separate page.
