Are you sure you left it long enough to boot fully? Takes a good few minutes to boot and connect to the internet.

OK. Network problem most likely on VM's side (since you're still getting those red lines on your BQM). Hard to be sure because you didn't have a BQM running at the time while in modem mode. Having that kind of thing setup first before you test is useful for proving things one way or another.

after 10 times unplugging and re-plugging and using the reset pin hole on the side of the router, finally got it working again on router mode.
what is going on here? this thing has a mind of its own..
i was lucky i could get it running again before ppl come back from work.

That sounds normal as you don't know how to use modem mode.
When in modem mode 192.168.0.1 will not work. The address changes to 192.168.100.1. See instructions for how to enable and disable modem mode here:

Factory reset (pin hole) is not the only way out of it.
