I am not sure if I have any wired devices. The printer is wireless, which is not working at this time, and the internet is working. I pressed the wi-fi button but nothing happened.

You pushed and held it for at least 2 seconds? Not just clicked it?
Try a hardwired device to see if the c7000 is still working and if you can access the gui

Yes, I have held the wi-fi button for more than 2 seconds. What would be an example of a hardwired device? I know what GUI stands for, but not sure what you mean about accessing the GUI?. What could possibly have the modem/router suddenly stop working while sending a signal? Could it be possible that the modem/router is going out? I appreciate your help with this, and have to confess that I am mildly literate with hardware and apps, so my questions may seem elemental.

hardwired just means a device connected via ethernet. You can log into the router through the browser and check the ssid (wireless name) settings and to see if they're enabled
