boot up the router with nothing connected. Hardwire into it with a computer to a lan port (not wan). Go to routerlogin.net  or 192.168.1.1 (default ip address). from there you should be able to login to the router.

The att fixed wireless device, does it have its own routing function built in? Are you running your R6120 in AP mode or in router mode? you might be running into a double nat situation if the att device is running as a router as well as the netgear router.

Yes at&t has its own router my point to point is connected with ethernet to that and is sent to my router, I cant make any changes in the AT&T router, as it is locked by AT&T , I can not figure out how to access the settings on my router to change to access point

Thank you for the help I believe it worked I was able to login and change the router to access point,  I will know for sure when I go over to my cabin and hook it up there,  but it does work here wired into my house router.

Really appreciate the information, thank you again
