Yeah this matches with the information I found but I was hoping their might be a solution which enabled me to use BT's Digital Voice.

Hi, We've been on FTTP for awhile now and recently BT turned off our old copper network. As a result we're now required to plug our phone into the BT Smart HUB in order to utilise our phone via Digital Voice. However, this isn't something I want to do as I utilise my own router running pfsense...

My original post on this thread is exactly what you are suggesting I believe. See: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/zenwifi-ax-mesh-wifi-red-led-disconnected-from-internet.77582/#post-747144 "What I believe I have setup is inline with the guidence of using a switch and Mesh Wifi according to...

Would you be able to draw a diagram of how you would alter my setup. Sorry bit of a visual person and it would be super helpful to me. Also I can confirm my ZenWiFi unit is in AP mode:

I'm starting to think my issue was simply a coincidence now. As usual services appears to have been restored.

Potentially not related to this thread, unless ofcourse you are correct @tgl . But here is why my setup is the way it is. See this thread from February where I tried to get my network working and since finding this arrangement I've not had a problem...

Mine also looks like this:

Potentially a coincidence, but since this upgrade I've noticed my WiFi network has been dropping out regularly across multiple different devices. Anyone has similar issues? Annoyingly I've also introduced a new devices to the network which could be the cause but I can't think why it would be...

Okay, the above was causing issues with speed, but I think it gave me the answer I needed. Which is the Asus ZenWiFi AX router in Access Point (AP) mode needs BOTH the WAN plugged into the modem AND the LAN plugged into the switch. My final solution is as follows and looks to be working well...

Okay a potential fix for my issue appears to be the following setup as the red LED disappear on plugging in an ethernet from Asus Router WAN to Modem LAN:

I've now changed my setup but the results are the same. As you can see the Node is now effectively directly connected to the Router via the patch panel. The router is then connected to my switch. However, what seems to cause the red LED is not the switch but the port I use on the router. It...

Another update, I've now plugged with Wifi mesh router into my modem. So my setup now looks like this: This setup gives a white LED when I'm plugged in via the Wifi mesh router WAN port. However, if I plug into the LAN port (as this guide says I should...

Okay, small update. I've removed the node and reset the WifI mesh router. The router LED is now "white", I.E. functioning as it should be. The setup now looks like this: As you can see, the switch is still in the same place. So if it were an issue, I'd expect to see the same problem. So I can...

I've tried plugging directly into the switch on another port. Results in the same issue. I've had no issues with the switch itself and any other form of networking which goes through it, so I can't see how the switch would be at fault. But perhaps it is indirectly through the fact the Asus...

Hi, I'm having some trouble with my Asus ZenWiFi AX Mesh WiFi setup. The Asus ZenWiFi AX marked as "Access Point(AP) mode" is displaying a red LED. From looking at here: https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1044577/ It would seem that equals "Disconnected from internet". This is confusing as the...
