You're not talking the other port on the modem are you? If so, the SB8200 from arris can only use 1 port unless you have the following:
1. A router with wan aggregation. Which the RBK23 kit isn't.
2. A ISP that allows more than 1 public IP address. The vast majority don't allow more than 1 public ip address.
So just to clarify, the switch is connected to the orbi and not to the modem, correct?
