Nighthawk M1 Passthrough Mode + Ethernet

Hello,

 

What hope is a simple question, when enabling the IP Passthrough feature I understand it disables the Wi-Fi, but does it also disable the Ethernet port?  I want to have the IP address assigned byt he Cellular Carrier tied directly to the Physical Ethernet port I have connected to the M1.  Is this possiable?

 

Thanks,

        I found out that you can not have it tethered at the same time you are trying to use the ethernet are you doing that?
