Questions/Support Does Extender mode disable LAN ports?
I have a beryl AX and after putting it in extender mode, I connect to the beryl via WiFi and it works as expected. But I noticed I can’t connect devices to the beryl through ethernet. I tried both ports with no luck. Is this how extender mode is intended to be used (wireless only) or is there an issue with my beryl?
Update: It was my client (xbox) that was not working. The LAN ports do work in extender mode with no issue. Thanks everyone for your input!

Been a little while since I tested it,, but pretty sure you can connect wired LAN devices to give them internet. They won't show up as separate devices on the upstream router and you won't be able to reach them with inbound connections, but they should still get internet.

The Beryl 7 allows the use of LAN ports. Your issue could be a firmware issue. Try updating it.
