        That is not the make and model of a modem or ONT.

         

        It is the name of an Internet service provider. Over the years most ISPs have handed out dozens of different devices with different features.

    Has a power OFF of the Hitron EN2551 modem and the R7000 for 1 minute then back ON with the Hitron modem first then R series router been performed? 

    Be sure your using good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended.

    Swap cabling out and test. 


    Not connected is an indication of bad cable or ISP modem not giving too service to the router.
