Ethernet/Coax vs Ethernet
dagrom
Enthusiast - Level 1

is this what you would expect to see in the network information for an ethernet only gigabit service? the "Ethernet/Coax" seems wrong to me since there is an "Ethernet" column.

can someone confirm that this is correct or if not how to address the issue?

Yes it is normal. The router has two Broadband connections, WAN ethernet or WAN coax. Any speeds 150 mbps and above has to be on ethernet from the ONT. It shows "Connected" because of the WAN ethernet is connected. The Coax and connection on the right side of the page is the LAN side and would show connected if there were STBs or other MoCA devices connected. Ethernet would show up if anything was connected to the LAN ports.
