Linksys Atlas MX8500 using the 2.5gbps port on the XB8
So, is the 2.5gbps port on the modem only use to connect a device? I was hoping to fed it to a multigig switch, then go into the linksys while having my PC at 2000mbps. Then having the Linksys connect to that same switch.

Hello! I am assuming that you are using the routing capabilities of the MX8500 and your XB8 is in bridge mode. If that is the case, you need to put your switch behind the router. A modem is only going to provide internet to one device. Your router is responsible for directing internet to multiple devices.
