I need help configuring a routerboard 450G. My ISP is provide me service on a Cable modem which is connected to a Cisco 1900 switch. When I plug my ubiquiti M2 and M5 antenna in the Cisco switch that is connected to the modem I can route to the internet.
When I connect my RouterBoard 450G to the same modem as the Cisco switch and plug in my M5 and M2 sector antennas I’m unable to route our to the internet. I have DHCP enable on the router as well as NAT since the Cable Modem is giving out a NAT priviate address.
How do i configure the router to work with the cable modem receiving a private IP from the modem to work with my M antenna’s the router is running version 5.14 software
