R7000 hook this up while at an area with no signal for phones and no cpu
I tried hooking this up in an area that i have spectrum internet but have no phone signal and no cpu. How are you supposed to do that since this should be plug and play when it's obviously not?

Not sure what actual issue your having.
There's always some install process but you haven't said whats failing, whats not working, or anything to go on other than you have an R7000 and no cell service.
(fyi, a router isn't going to provide you cell service)

The problem I am having is i can't set it up because my phone says no internet connection. And since i don't get cel signal i can't use the app because of no signal. Though my phone finds the router but no internet connection so can't use app or anything.

You can set it up using a web browser either on your phone or on a pc.
You don't need to set it up using the app
