I still acting up even with it set to streaming plugged into port 2 . I did notice all lights are blinking nonstop for each port that has something plugged in.

@Danny80916,

 

I did notice all lights are blinking nonstop for each port that has something plugged in.

Is it just normally blinking blue or fast blinking blue?  If all of the port LEDs are normally blinking blue, it means that traffic is detected which is normal.  Otherwise, if all of the ports being used and their corresponding port LEDs are fast blinking blue, it means that the S8000 switch detected a network loop. As reference, read pages 6-7 of the Nighthawk S8000 user manual here about the LED descriptions. 

 

Kindly answer the questions below:  

 

a. Is there another switch connected to the S8000 switch? If yes, what is the brand & model of the switch? 

b. How is everything connected?  It would be best if you post a screenshot or image of your detailed network setup. 

c. What is the current firmware version of your S8000 switch?
