Nighthawk S8000 Switch - Can not Connect
I am having problems connecting to my switch. Setup as follows: Internet comes into Virgin Hub 3 in modem mode Network cable from hub 3 to Nest Wifi Network Cable from Nest Wifi to S8000 sw...
Forgot to add, the reason this is important right now is that since replacing Google Wifi points with Nest Wifi points, my Phillips hue and Energenie hubs will not connect to the network, despite power cycling every single network device.
These are the only things which will not connect, I assume that in the past I set a static IP for them and for some unkown reason the hubs can not find those IPs any more.
Update - Managed to log in to the switch after holding the reset button for 5 seconds to reset it to DCHP mode.
The hubs are connected to the network, but will not connect to the internet :(
