Nighthawk X6 R8000 internet access problem

I just got the Nighthawk X6 R8000 router, to replace the WNDR3800 router model that was working perfectly.

 

The new router, is not allowing internet access using dynamic IP and DNS settings.   U using static IP, shows that the router's internet port is functioning properly, yet I do internet is not functioning.

 

Reverting back to the WNDR3800 router is working perfectly!

 

Any ideas what I could try out to solve this?  please! thanks
