Connect to router (RBR50) with ethernet

Question

I am able to connect to the satellite with an ethernet cable; however, I am NOT able to do the same with the router. For a wired connection do I need to set my laptop's IP to a particular static IP?

Hello loremipsum

What is happening with your wired connection when plugged into the router? Do you not get a IP address on your laptop?

and have you tried all 3 available lan ports on the router , i did have a strange issue at one time where one of the ethernet ports wouldnt work , i think it was port 4

I did try two different ports. When I was connected I couldn't reach the router's login (orbilogin.com) or get any website to load.

I just connected my FS &amp; AD server to port 4 and made RDP connections, ran speedtest, etc. Worked fine. &nbsp;48 port switch connected to port 1. Ports 2 &amp; 3 are open.
