Hi everyone.

I'm trying to set up EasyMesh with Ethernet backhaul on my main router (VX1800v with firmware 250417) along with another router (AX23 with firmware 20250814). EasyMesh works great over Wi-Fi. The problem occurs when I connect an Ethernet cable. The AX23 starts flashing red, and the VX1800v loses its internet connection. The same thing happens when the AX23 is set up as an AP.

I tried connecting the cable to both the WAN and LAN ports on the AX23. After further testing, I found that when connected via cable, the VX1800v changes its IP range. Sometimes it’s 192.168.1.0, other times 192.168.7.0, but neither the mesh nor the internet works.

Thanks for help.
