the SB8200 has 2x ethernet ports. But most ISP's only allow 1 device to be connected to it.
Try this. Factory reset the sb8200 and the RAX. This ensures link aggregation isn't running or causing issues.
then power off them both and disconnect the coax from the sb8200.

Give it 2 minutes to boot.
Then try setup on the router.
