R7000 new install. Getting 'no router found'.
I can see the router being broadcast on my phone, but it has no internet connection. It should connect to my existing home router. I cannot access the router using ANY of the methods mentioned. Route...
What modem/gateway are you connecting it to?
If you're connecting it to a previous install or router, try the 10.0.0.1 address while connected to the r7000.
If you're in a double nat it changes its ip address and sometimes routerlogin doesn't work because of the double nat.
A double nat happens when you cascade more than 1 router.

Fixes? There’s 3 options but only use 1.
1. Put the modem/gateway in modem only/pass through mode. This disables its routing functions.
2. Leave the modem/gateway in router mode but put the Netgears IP address into its DMZ. This forwards the data to the netgear. You can either leave the modem/gateway’s wireless enabled or disabled. Just make sure its using a different wifi channel to prevent interference
3. Put the Netgear into access point mode. This disables its routing functions. Wifi/ethernet still works but it does disable some features.

Thanks for the reply. However I cannot do any of those functions as I appear to have zero access to the Nighthawk.
