Hi, i recently got a new connection which has a HFC termination device with a single WAN port that needs to go to my ISP router.
The termination device is in a room with a single Ethernet port wall plate which connects where my ISP router is where i also have a bunch of other devices connected.
Problem is, the room with the termination device also has a set top box (pay tv) which needs ethernet. I've tried using a splitter on both ends and connecting the LAN and WAN ports but it doesn't work.
Even when using the splitter and using only the WAN to WAN connection, it shows no connectively. I'm assuming the WAN port needs more than the standard 4 pins??
I can't fit the ISP router in the same spot so i can't see any other options?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated
thanks
