Verizon LTE modem + Netgear Switch?
Can Netgear GS608 switch (or similar) be connected to one of the LAN outputs of a Verizon LTE Internet+Phone (aka Broadband+Voice) to successfully expand the number of wired devices? I have 2 PCs, 3 A/V components and a network drive that need to exchange video content among each other (40GB files) and/or from Internet (1GB streaming), and I want to avoid Wifi slow-down.
Hi jeffs95033,
Welcome to the community! :)
You may connect the GS608 switch to one of the LAN ports of the router and it should work fine since the purpose of the switch is to extend your local network. This will not affect the wireless connection.
