Hi all - I recently bought a 5 port gigbit switch so I could hardwire several devices. I found that I could not get my Arlo Base Station to connect if I plugged it into the switch...but it connects fine when it's directly plugged into the modem. I've switched out the cables, checked the connections, and I can't figure out a solution. I've read a couple of posts from others online that have had the same issue. Does anyone know of a solve? Just a bug? Thanks in advance

I have bases connected through gigabit switches with no problems. Are these managed switches or just plain cheap ones like I use? WHen connecting the base to the switch, what are all the LEDs showing?
