Orange light - no idea what symbols mean
We’ve just purchased our first netgear modem router, I have an orange light on the router but can’t find any information as to what that symbol actually means to see what the issue is. It’s the middle light, round circle.
Out netgear genie has said we have internet connection detected however it won’t move past the login page.
Thank you!

Did it come with a model number? Look at the product label. And you
connected it to what?

"can't find"? Where did you look? Here's a radical idea: Visit
http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look for
Documentation. Get the User Manual. Read. Look for the LED
descriptions. Further reading might also be helpful.

"Our"? Which "genie"? Ever helpful, Netgear uses the name "Genie"
for more than one thing. Netgear routers have a web-browser interface
called "Genie", and Netgear offers application programs for various
computers/tablets/phones, which are also called "Genie". (I'd stick
with the web-browser interface.)
Now that you've said what "it" won't do, perhaps you could say what
you're doing, and what happens when you do it.

Re: Orange light - no idea what symbols mean
If you visit the support pages:
you can feed in the model number and find all the documentation for your hardware.
The Quick Start guide is usually a good place to start.
