Question about Netgear Nighthawk M5

I am trying to connect a Philips Hue Bridge to the Netgeart Nighthawk M5 via the Ethernet interface, which also acts as a hub. Everything is working properly, but the bridge is not recognised by the Netgear or is probably not assigned an IP address by the DHCP server. Does anyone know if and how an IP address can be assigned via the M5? I can see all devices connected via WiFi in Admin, but not the bridge connected via the cable. Is there a way to configure the LAN port in the M5? Thanks for an answer.

Hello gallus,

Have you tried connecting another device to the internet port (e.g. laptop) and see if it gets an IP?
