    Amber means the port is running at 100 Mbps instead of 1000 Mbps.  You should check the cables.  They could be bad.

     

    Also, I have disabled the Netgear Router WiFi radio and are using only the Unifi access points for WiFi transmission. Could I use the Netgear Router as an additional access point by assigning the same SSID as for the Unifi access points?


    Yes, you can.  Just be sure to use a different Wi-Fi.  Otherwise, there will be competition for airtime.
