Can Nighthawk Wifi 6 Mesh router ethernet port be connected to a switch, to connect more devices?
I have a Nighthawk Wifi 6 Mesh router. It only has 1 hardwired ethernet port to be used as a backhaul to 1 satellite, or to another client device. Can I instead plug a switch into that router's ...
Can you show how I cable this up please. I have my wifi linked by internet into the Nighthawk Mest. Do I link the router to the ethernet port?
You must already have a Cat-5 cable running into the internet port of the MR60, router.
That leaves the Ethernet port open on the MR60. Simply run a cat-5 (or Cat6) ethernet cable from the Ethernet port of the router to an open port on your ethernet switch.
