    So here is what I did, and now it’s all working.  Unplugged everything.
    Plugged modem back in and waited 2-3 minutes, all lights stable.  Plugged Nighthawk
    in, plugged yellow cable to WAN, to connect with modem.   Waited 2-3 minutes
    for lights to stabilize.
    Only thing I did differently on my 10th attempt to connect, was to NOT plug Roku box in. 

    I went to Netgear genie to verify it was connected.  Then I connected each device.  IPhones, iPad, MacBook. 
    After all were connected and verified connected to internet, I plugged Roku in, went to settings, connected Nighthawk.  Everything is now working.  I don’t know if hooking Roku too soon caused this problem, but it was the only thing I did differently.  Thanks for all the help!
