Unable to do a fresh set-up wizard install on my Nighthawk AC1750

I did find out the IP address by doing an ipconfig and it led me to the "routerlogin.net" page that I can already access. I am still greyed out and locked out of setting up my QOS, Set-up Wizard, and most other functions I had before the build. Now what is an NIC? I am not really computer literate but do manage for most things.
