Orbi NBK752: Unable to use LAN/WAN port as LAN in mobile only mode
Sorry for this repeat of a nearly identical topic which was closed without being resolved. I have set up the NBR750 of my NBK752 for mobile only connection. Everything works, except the LAN/WAN...
Thank you for your replies. Unfortunately one seems to have disappeared while I was writing this reply.
I agree that the port should not be marked LAN/WAN if it cannot be used as a LAN port.
Unfortunately I only have the Netgear Orbi App in French but if you select LTE uniquement in Paramètres/Paramètres du réseau mobile/Type Internet it says :
Le port "WAN/LAN" est configuré en tant que port LAN uniquement
Roughly translated this means :
If you select Only LTE in Parameters/Mobile network parameters/Internet type it says :
The WAN/LAN port is configured as LAN only
So this seems to me to be a bug.
Is there a way of reporting bugs to Netgear and what are the chances of getting it fixed?
Agreed, page 26 of the User Manual appears a bit ambiguous (to me).

What would be the purpose of labeling the yellow port "LAN/WAN" if it can be used only as a WAN port?
How is the system currently configured? (Failover or Always use LTE?)
