CM2050V 2.5 Gbps Multi-Gig Connection to RAX200
Hello,
I am not sure which connection I need to make on the back of my RAX200 in order to use the 2.5Gbps from the modem. Do I connect the modem to the multi-gig port on the back of the RAX200 or to the internet port? I know I must also change the settings in the router's configuation page to 2.5 multi-gig.
Thanks!

Please post about this here for your model router:
https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-Routers-with-WiFi-6-AX/bd-p/en-home-routers-nighthawk-wifi-ax6I would review the installation guide and user manual for the RAX200. I believe the 2.5Gb port can be used for the WAN side. You'll need to check for any configurations though.
Good Luck.Thanks. I will try.

If the cm2050v is already activated, then connect it to the multigig port on the back of the rax200. you'll need to change the wan port in the settings to the multigig port and reboot both devices after its been changed.
I've done it with my cm2000 on both my rax200 and my raxe500. works great.
