Orbi RBK50 and Dish Hopper

I have had trouble with installing a new (second) satellite to my existing system - it initially connected but then had a magenta ring of death.  Through trial and error I found that having the my Dish Hopper, which uses MoCa and I believe a DHCP handler, wired into the satellite was causing the issue.  I presume this is due to DHCP assignment capabilities, but don't know.  

 

The system has been working fine with the Dish only connected to the network via wireless.  Would like to hardwire it though for Sling and Dish Mobile transfers.

    Every time you connect the DISH box to the satellite via ethernet it causes the orbi satellite to crash?
