Buy why would it make any difference? If I plug into the Asus port it works. The Asus is linked to the Netgear switch. If I plug into the Netgear switch it fails. What is the Netgear switch doing to the packets to stop it working?
Isn't double NATing a minefield. Would I set the HG to deliver just 1 IP in the pool - that of the Asus?
Would I set WAN-side address allocation as Normal or passthrough? At the moment, I have the Asus delivering x.x.x.4 to .250. It's on .3, with the HG612 as .1
This was how it was recommended on another board.

Assume the PHY link on the port speed makes sense (same speed as on the Asus), the device does get an IP address assigned by DHCP (check the Asus router DHCP table/connected devices), check the switch ARP table for the device MAC address, ... have an eye for the IGMP Multicast settings for the VLAN in use. Allow IGMP multicast, and don't block unknown multicast.
