Base Station not obtaining IP address

[vyperphi696]

I've had my Arlo system for about six months no problem. Then it stopped connecting to the internet. Arlo support sent a new base station and set up normally and still didn't connect. 

Arlo support suggested I speak with ISP (AT&T) to open specific ports. This was new to me since I didn't need to do this on the initial setup. When I spoke to ATT, they couldn't find the IP address of base station, so they couldn't help open a port. I could see MAC address, but no IP address (see attached).

After some manipulation to network setting in my router, I turned off ipv6 and it worked initially but I had to unplug the router to move it. Now Arlo won't connect no matter what ipv6 settings are.

I don't know how to get my router to assign an IP address to Arlo. I've reset, rebooted, restarted ALL devices and nothing changes. 

Any ideas?

What is the ethernet LED status on the router LAN port?

Yes.

I figured it out. Seems I needed to reset my router to factor settings. Not sure what AT&T did to cause so much trouble, but I'm just glad it works. 

Thanks for your response!
