Tags: #Network Connectivity #2.5G port
Model: Archer AX72 Pro  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.2.2 Build 20230831 rel.64410(4555)

Hi, 

I wonder if 2.5G port on Archer AX72 Pro can be used as "out" port. I'd like to connect internet to 1G port and to use 2.5G port to connect to my PC which also has 2.5G port. 

Is it possible? 

Regards

David

Hi, the answer is Yes. You could select login the web interface of the router and go to Internet page to change Internet Port from 2.5Gbps WAN/LAN to the 1Gbps WAN/LAN, then the 2.5Gbps will act as LAN port.

  @Sunshine 

Hello Sunshine,

Thank you - it worked :) 

I have one more question. I can't find the Link Aggregation option where it's supposed to be. Do you know why?

Hi, upon checking, AX72 Pro doesn't support the Link Aggregation feature, while AX73 support it.
