RBR20 Ehternet port doesnt't work after firmware upgrade

I installed the newest firmware to my RBR20 (v2.5.1.16). After the reboot of the system, the ethernet port on the router doesn't work anymore. I have attached a netgear gs105 switch attachted to it. Any ideas?

  • Issue solved. When I connected a device directly (without NG gs105 switch), it did work. Problem was the switch. Bought a new one (TPLink) and everything works again.

      Interesting, what rev version is the GS-105 switch? Was the switch just bad?

      Glad you got it resolved.
