Setting RS600 Router

Recently purchased a RS600 router.  Followed the instructions that came in the box with the router.  And still unable to get the internet.  I connected the computer to the modem and could get the internet, but when connected to the router, no internet. 

Using the nighthawk app, doing the startup check, it says the cable is connected, but no internet connection.  I did this several times with no success.

And how can use the routerlogin sit to manually log in if I cannot create/join the network?

    Thank for for responding so quickly.  Are you able to connect to the RS600 using a computer (page 22).  There should be a menu item for Internet Setup.

    Since a computer connected directly to the modem got an internet connection, it would seem that the Internet Service Provider (ISP) does not require a login (user name/password).

    What modem/gateway are you connecting to the RS600 to?
