    Asus ZenWiFi XT9 wired port connectivity issues

    Recently purchased a pair of XT9 devices off Amazon. While setting up I've ran into an issue that I can't figure out. Wired devices plugged directly into the main XT9 using ports 1-3 are not able to talk to other wired devices. Doesn't matter if they are 100M devices or Gig devices. Those wired...

    I have an Orbi system. It is on the latest update. I use fibre with no username/password or anything, it just works. I did drop my router before having these issues, but I also changed ISP at the same time. The drop was only a few inches and everything seemed fine. I was using it in AP mode...
