wifi not working r6700

I called my cable company to troubleshoot and they couldn't find a problem on their end. The Nighthawk app shows "Internet: Online" but I can't connect to perform any troubleshooting or updates.
The router is r6700 AC1750. On the face of the router only the first 2 lights are lit. Any suggestions?

What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed on the router?
Normally modems and routers are designed to be ON and online 24/7. There would be no need to turn them off each night. Doing this maybe causing hardware stress and faults.

Re: wifi not working r6700
Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
