Archer AX1450 Wi-Fi 6 Router no internet when using router mode
Device: AX1450 Wi-Fi 6 Router
Purchased: Yesterday
Issue: No internet connectivity when in router mode. (Constant orange light)
I'm upgrading from an Archer C54 which was easy to set up.
For the Archer AX1450, I tried to go through the same setup process which was to connect the modem to the WAN port and connect the LAN to my desktop.
I logged in with the ADMIN password and went through the setup. When it got to the end, it would not connect to the internet at all.
I tried backing out, reseating the ethernet cords, using a different cord, and resetting the config to default. Same issue. I went back into the settings and switched the router's Operation mode to Access point mode and connected it to the Archer C54 and it started working.
I was able to get the firmware updated to the latest version and I tried again. Same issue. The port can't be burnt seeing as it works in a different mode.
I'm not sure if I should just return this or not.
Does anyone have any pointers on what I should do?
