Thanks so much for posting this solution! I fortunately had a 1GB switch laying around to try this out. I was about to return the hEX Refresh! :D You’re welcome! I figured only one aneurism was enough as far as this matter was concerned :lol:. I’m glad to at least help someone else with the same is...

No, I was not aware that ETH1 is treated completely different, but I’m definitel...
Hello. I figured I would post something about how I fixed this problem after wracking my brain for half of a day and to save others the same fate. I have FIOS, and I pay for 300/300. When I replaced my old setup (Orbi RBR50) with the hEX refresh connected directly to my Verizon ONT, I noticed that m...
