Is anyone aware of any setting that might help router power up automatically?
Any settings that you can change are in the hands of the people who wrote your firmware.

Even if it is something that you can control in the Netgear browser graphical user interface, (GUI) there is no guarantee that it will stick with your firmware.
My experience with recovering from power cuts is that both the modem and router have to cooperate. If the modem takes too long to boot up, the router can time out before it can connect. Sounds like this could be what you see.
Might be worth looking at the modem, if there is one, rather than the router.
Thank you for your reply. I tried different firmware (first AdvancedTomado, then FreshTomato) its the same. But in my lab -when I simulate power outage - my R7000 starts automatically every time.
You'll need to refer to the mfr if your FW. This forum is for supporting of NG stock FW on NG products.
