Hello all,

 

I realize this issue has been discussed in other threads, but none of the suggestions worked. I am looking for more ideas before I decide to move on from Deco, although I dread rebuilding my network. I just moved, and the decos worked at the previous residence.

 

Setup:

 

  • Starlink Gen 3 (bypass mode)
  • 3 Decos (XE75, Deco XE5300 (main), Deco S4)
  • Wireless mesh works perfectly

 

Problem:

 

  • The ethernet ports (besides the feed from the Starlink modem) are not working. Ethernet port (besides the feed from the Starlink modem) are not working. I need to connect an unmanaged switch.

 

Troubleshooting so far:

 

  • I tried various ethernet cables.
  • I connected to each available port on all three decos with no success.
  • When I connect a Windows laptop, I look at the network status, which says "No Internet" and "invalid IP configuration."
  • I connected directly to the Starlink modem to verify it's not giving out IP addresses (double NAT). It's in bypass mode and didn't provide an IP address to the laptop.
  • I changed the IP addressing range to 192.168.69.50 - 192.168.71.250 
  • Changed Primary DNS to 1.1.1.1 and secondary to 8.8.8.8

 

Current Settings:

 

  • Operation mode: Wi-Fi Router
  • No static routing
  • IPTV/VLAN Disabled
  • Mac Clone Disabled
  • DDNS Disabled
  • LAN IP: 192.168.68.1 Subnet Mask 255.255.252.0
  • No Address Reservations
  • No Port Forwarding
  • SIP ALG enabled
  • UPNP enabled
  • Firmware up to date
  • Automatic reboot at 3 am
  • System time matches the phone
  • QoS disabled
  • IoT network disabled

 

I'm about to give up and go back to Google Wifi. 

 

Any troubleshooting tips are greatly appreciated!

What do you mean by "I need to connect an unmanaged switch."?

 

If I understand, wireless clients receive an IP address from the Deco, but wired clients do not.

 

What does the wired Windows laptop show as response to "ipconfig /all"?

 

How are your Deco interconnected?  I suggest testing with a single Deco, powering off the two other Decos.
