Orbi 750 Series Tri-Band WiFi adding NETGEAR 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Plus Switch

Be sure to disable any and all IGMP protocols on the switch and if present in the switches menus, any Green Ethernet options. 

Be sure to use good quality LAN cables. CAT6 is recommended.

The only problems people see with switches are when the satellite is connected to the router through some switches.

If the satellite remains connected directly to the router, then switches can be connected to both the router and satellite so that many devices can connect to the network.

The switch should not be connected to the modem.
