Storm Ready Wired Backhaul

There was no documentation, and support had no ideas on this.

I wanted to confirm Storm Ready Wifi will work as failover for a wired network.

Connect the red port on Storm Ready to the red port on the XB8 with an Ethernet patch cable.

The red port on the XB8 is the only 2.5 GB port, so I think you lose wired 2.5 speed in this configuration.

I have WiFi turned off on my XB8 as I’m using my own wireless access points.

You get a four bar status as to how strong the Verizon signal is. There’s no dBm and I can’t find an admin portal if there is one.

You’ll get texts when it switches back and forth between wired internet and cellular.
