Your ISP modem already has a built in router and wifi:

This would be a double NAT condition which isn't recommended. https://kb.netgear.com/30186/What-is-Double-NAT

Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge or modem only mode. Then use the NG router in router mode. You'll need to contact the ISP for help and information in regards to the modem being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ/ExposedHost or IP Pass-Through for the IP address the NG router gets from the modem.
3. Or disable all wifi radios on the modem and connect the NG router to the modem, LAN to LAN configure AP mode on the NG router.
the Wifi is already diabled on the Provider Router i dont have acces to that i need to Contact my Provider to send me an new one or to change in to Modem Mode... i wanna use my Nighthawk. Thank You very mutch for your help.
Ya disabling WiFi is not enough. You'll need to get the modem bridged, or try the other options.
Good Luck.
i will try it ill hope it will work.
