Can't get internet connection (MR60 mesh router and CM2050V cable modem)

This is really weird.     We have Comcast with the CM2050V cable modem.    Connected to that is the MR60 mesh router.    The the mesh router is all the connected devices.   This has been working for years.

 

Until a power outage a few days ago.

 

The cable modem seems to be working.    If I connect my laptop directly to it. I get a 75.x.x.x address and I have a working internet connection.

 

 The mesh router seems to be working.    I can connect to it and things like printing over the local network are fine.

 

BUT, the MR60 router doesn't seem to get connected to the internet through the cable modem.   Why can my laptop do that directly, but the MR60 won't.   It won't get a DHCP address...

 

Also weird, with laptop connected to the MR60 via ethernet (not by wifi) it seems to connected a little bit in that I can get email from POP, though the latop says no internet connection.   So, is it partly working in small bursts?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
