No,you're referring to the EWAN port which is for connection to a
modem for fibre access, etc.
I'm plugged into the 4th LAN port and have also tried the others in
order to eliminate the faulty port potential.
Did you get your modem installed onto an already established O.S. or
was it detected during the install procedure.
My /home is on an external expansion drive and I'm considering a
re-install if that detection procedure would pick it up.
I'm sure that once it had been detected, there'd be no further problems.
Thanks,
Weaver.
