I have been using the router for about 3 months and the WiFi network disappeared. Luckily I can still connect through my Spectrum supplied modem+router. I tried resetting the Nighthawk multiple times and then tried to go through the install again. I can not complete the install because I can’t find the Netgear WiFi to connect to. Please help.

Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look for Documentation. Get the User Manual (at least). Read. Look for the LED descriptions and "Troubleshoot". Pay particular attention to the "WiFi LED" and the (poorly identified?) "WiFi button". Did you press it? Further reading might not hurt, either.
Re: Rax45 - Router name doesn’t show up to connect to
Thank you for the response. I did go through all the online material and troubleshooting. Yes, the lights are on. However still no signal to connect to.

_Which_ "the lights are on"? With my weak psychic powers, and your detail-free descriptions, progress here might be tough.

For what, exactly, are you looking?

"tried"? An actual settings reset (holding the Reset button down long enough to have its intended effect) should restore the SSID(s) to the default(s) shown on the product label. In any case, if the radios are working, then one or more SSIDs (with strong signals) should appear and disappear from the list of availables on a working wireless device when the power for the RAX45 is applied and removed.
It's also possible for the RAX45 hardware to fail, but it'd take more than "I can't find" to convince a skeptic of that.
