Need help with TL-SG108 set-up
Hi All,
I'm trying to hardwire my house and get off wifi so I bought the TL-SG108.
I thought it was plug and play but I'm having difficulty getting all my devices to work.
Right now it functions in successfully sending internet to my wifi, but all other attempts to plug computers and iOS devices in directly at the same time have failed. I have purchased adapters for Mac iOS devices and they show "ethernet" as connected in the settings but the internet does not work in the apps.
I also tried connecting my Macbook Pro and chromebook to the switch without success.
I tried manually setting DHCP but I don't really understand how it works and I was getting nowhere.
Can someone give me a step-by-step way of successfully setting this up? I'm moderately tech savy but this network world is new to me and I haven't been able to really grasp how DHCP works.
I use comcast/xifinity and own the NETGEAR Nighthawk Cable Modem with Voice CM1150V - For Xfinity by Comcast Internet & Voice | Supports Cable Plans Up to 2 Gigabits | 2 Phone lines | 4 x 1G Ethernet ports | DOCSIS 3.1
Thank you.
Brook

@Doc2485 A little tough to get on phone for me with kids around. Thanks anyway for your help. I will research an appropriate router for that speed, and if you think of anything please let me know. Thanks again!
