R6900 Nighthawk setup wizard disabled

I used Nighthawk R6900 in the USA for a while. Everything worked fine. Now i am using same router in India for ACT ISP. To configre PPPoE, option 'Internet setup wizard' is disabled. I need this option, to avoid frequent login of ACT ISP protal page. Please suggest ASAP.

Hi rkinhyd76,

 

Make sure the router is not setup as an access point. 

 

Check this KB below. Uncheck the "Enable AP mode".

Thanks for suggestions. I am not using modem. From the wall point, i am directly connecting to router and using WiFi. I tried to follow the steps as per link, at 

"STEP 3. Under the Basic Tab, click on the Internet." Internet hyperlink is disabled. Please suggest. Thanks in advance.
