Re: M6 Pro connection to existing router
Hi @Harvey1010 ,
I don't know much about Lynksys EA 7300, but can you try with another Router (if you have one) and check if that works?
I just tested with Netgear's RBR50, connected to my M6 and it works very fine.
Please let me know if you get same behavior when you connect another router to M6.
You can also reset the Lynksys router and try again.

Re: M6 Pro connection to existing router
Hi @Harvey1010 ,
Follow these steps to setup your M6 Pro as modem to your Linksys router.
- Plug LAN cable from M6 Pro to WAN/Internet port of your Linksys router.
- Power up the M6 Pro without a battery. Use the supplied power adapter and cable.
- Power up the Linksys router.
If the Linksys router's IP range is set to 192.168.1.x then I recommend you change the IP range on either the M6 Pro or Linksys router to something else to avoid any IP conflicts. I also recommend putting the M6 Pro into IP Passthrough Mode if you are going to use the M6 Pro permanently plugged into your Linksys router.
