WNR 2000v5 - Unable to create LAN Connection

Hello,

 

i have problems with my ethernet connection. I rolled my Router back to factory settings. Wi-Fi is working fine, but i can't connect any device with LAN. I've set my router as a AP. It's connected to my modem. I don't use static IP Adresses etc. If i connect for example my PS4, or Android TV via cable, it's impossibel to get a connection. Any advice?

If you are connecting to a real modem - not a router / modem combo, then you will never get an Ip address, and never get out to the internet. You should confingure the AP as a router, if you are connected to a true modem.

So it looks like a router / modem combo  and supports a phone.. From the front panel of  the Netgear router, what lights do you have on? Manual Pages 7 and 8.
