The old D7000 v1 had a separate Ethernet DSL port which saw and connected to my Fibre connection in the Openroach box on the wall. The v2 doesnt have that port and now need to use LAN port 4. However port 4 does not see the internet connection exists and so won't connect to my ISP. I have also tried a 3rd party modem\router and that also see the internet connection (that modem\router also had a separate ethernet DSL port). Ay suggestions as to why Port 4 wont see the connection?
TIA

That is the WAN port. The V1 and V2 variants of the D7000 both support this.
Did you read the section in the manual Change the Physical WAN Connection Preference?

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.
While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge.
You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:
