How can I fix a router that gives signal, but not internet

My router will give off wireless signal, but it does not give internet access. I've tried restoring to factory settings, but that won't work either. Is there any way to fix this? if you have any idea for our Netgear router

Which router is this? Firmware on it?

What modem are you connecting to?  (model number and firmware)

ISP?

Hi @AnderwDavis 

 

Your Netgear A6200 is a WiFi adaptor, which is meant to be used with computers and laptops that do not have WiFi technology on-board. In order for your adaptor to work on your laptop/computer, you still need a WiFi router which in turn would have to be connected to your internet source (e.g. a cable modem.)
