EX6100 & EX6150v2 Ethernet Port Issue
Hello, I'm trying to find an answer to what is going on with my extenders' Ethernet (RJ45) Ports. The Ethernet port on both extenders, have an Amber and Green LED on them. And up until around 24-...
Have you tried to factory reset the units and do the setup again?
DarrenMYes, I've tried factory reset multiple times.

I've recently seen that the devices appear not to recognize a TiVO when it is connected to them. It took a bit to learn this because when the EX6100 & EX6150v2 connected to the network, when spoofing the MAC Addresses the IP addresses changed to 0.0.0.0. Once I created a static IP for the primary MAC, on the router, I was able to login and see that neither device recognized the wired connected device. However, the connected TiVO still transmits data through both EX6100 & EX6150v2.
It seems like the Amber LED, on the Ethernet port, may be an indicator that the Netgear device does not recognize the connected wired device.
