RT-BE86U Ethernet issue?

Squiggles

New Around Here
Howdy.
I've got an RT-BE86U that I used to replace my ageing and failling RT-AC68U.

It works pretty much flawlessly for my usage. Pretty much....

I have a strange issue where, when I reboot the router, it appears that it hasn't come up.... Except it has.

The router is connected to my modem via the 2.5G LAN port, a seperate LAN port connects it to my Netgear GS108 switch.

When I reboot, I can't connect to the router or the interner from my PC connected to the Netgear switch via cable. So I think it's down, but a wireless device can connect, access the router and net. That's very odd.

Power cycling the switch restores wired connectivity to the router. (I've just thought I havent tried just unplugging and re-plugging in the LAN cable on the router to see if that brings it back but still....)

Anybody else noticed any weirdness? As I said, it works pretty much flawlessly, it only occurs when I reboot the router which gets a tad annoying :)

Thanks!
