NETGEAR C6300 LAN Issues
I have the modem/router combo C6300 docsis 3.0 and when i plug it in to the wired network for the house nothing happens. the lights on any of the outgoing ports dont light up and devices plugged in via hard line arent getting internet. the wifi works just fine though. i'd like the hard line to work too. any thoughts? i've tried various cables and that doesnt appear to be the issue. thanks.

Are you trying to use the C6300 as a modem/router or as a router? How are you connecting it to your network?
im using it as a modem/router. right now i am connected using the wifi. I would imagine I should be able to do both wifi and LAN as I have with previous netgear routers.
I see. You can access the Internet via Wi-Fi but not via Ethernet. Hmm, if the Ethernet lights on the C6300 are not lighting up and you have tried different cables, then it's possible that the C6300 is defective.
