Hi

I have a BE85 configured in AP mode and using one of the 2.5g ports to wire the BE85 to an internal switch.  The Deco is provided an IP via DHCP. Everything works correctly.

The same switch also has an 10g SPF+ port.   I tried to simply disconnect the 2.5g wire and plugged new fiber between both SPF+ ports.  Once rebooted the BE85 assumed the IP address of 192.168.1.1 rather then taking on a DHCP address.   The networking appears in order as i can connect to 192.168.1.1  via a browser where the router web page would come up, instead i'm getting the BE85 login page.   The APP cannot find the deco.

I turned off the BE85, disconnected the SPF+ connection and reconected the 2.5g ports and it booted correctly in AP mode with the it's correct DHCP provided address.

Can the BE85 be configured in AP mode with the SPF+ port providing connectivity to the internal network?  Do i need to reconfigure the Deco with the APP by starting over the configuarion?

thanks for insight.
