New Around Here
My router can't renew its WAN IP. I'm not sure why its doing this but the modem itself can provide internet perfectly fine. Its a CGN3ACR and my ISP is rogers.

The router is in bridge mode. Last night my sister couldn't get any internet from the router and moved her cord from the router and plugged it in directly to the modem. Ever since that happened the router won't renew its WAN IP. Pic here. It just keeps saying "renewing" and never renews.

Things I've tried:

I power cycled a bunch of times now.
I hard reset both the router and the modem. I put the modem back into bridge mode each time.
I called Rogers and they checked bridge mode was properly enabled. The internet will work if I plug something directly into the modem. It works like that for my laptop but not my pc.
I tried to copy the MAC address of my laptop(At least I think it was, I did so while on my laptop).
I have windows 10 so I had to manually activate telnet, then put in the "killall -SIGUSR2 ...." command, it wasn't recognized.
I tried to update the router to the latest firmware from their site. Right now I'm using merlin's latest firmware 380.61.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Clear the Clone MAC Address field in the GUI and apply the changes. Turn off the router. Turn off the modem.

Wait at least 30 minutes and then turn on the modem. Wait 10 minutes and turn on the router.
 
Thanks, that fixed that problem.
-_- I feel stupid now because I've tried so many things and nothing.

There is another problem now, nothing connected to the router (wireless or wired) will get any Internet. I'm kinda scared to do anything, will just a regular router reboot fix things?

Try turning the clients off and on first (if you hadn't already). Then try a reboot from the router's GUI.

I don't know enough about your network setup to make any other guesses.
 
Ok, I tried it and it doesn't work. Tried to reboot the modem as well, didn't work. Any other information I can give?

Did you reset the router to factory defaults after you installed the firmware? If not try that (but don't reload settings from old backups). That often cures "unexplainable" problems.
 
Okay, I tried that and a few power cycles and it didn't work. Could the router be faulty?

edit: Wasn't able to fix it in the end, got an AC87U and it works perfectly fine.
