Thank you so much Feobrien !
I did connect the "yellow" port to my router - and use the other as a pure LAN for my laptop. This connection works ok, but get disconnected from time to time.

Again, a huge thanks !

Hi Feobrien,
just a short heads-up : I´ve reset my hw and just tick in the box Access Point in the router portal. Seems to work properly now.

A huge thanksk for your support - it was super helpful.
