X6S Config HELP pls R8000P

Just bought my first netgear product. Upgraded from old AirPort Express

 

Does anyone know why there are so many function that I can't click on the page?

It looks like your R8000P is running in AP (Access Point) Mode. I couldn't find the online manual but, on other routers, the setting to change it is at ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Wireless AP.

It strongly recommended that only one device operate as a router in a home network. Disabling AP Mode on the R8000P might leave you with two routers.

Your picture will take time to land.

 

What page? What functions?

What else is on the network? The  modem, for example. This might explain why the R8000P is in AP mode.
