Does the internet gateway stay connected to your router or is it just during the setup that it needs the Ethernet connection?

It needs to remain connected in order to send open/close commands, via web browser or smartphone app. Also sends push notification to smartphone of events.

It stays physically connected to the router to stay on the internet (not through wireless router). FYI, I suppose the Chamberlain gateway has some other wireless connection to the garage controller, since the gateway does not have to be wired to controller, or even at the garage.

It must stay connected to your router in order to communicate with the switch.

Yes your gateway must stay connected to your router. Your gateway connection allows you to remotely operate other wireless Chamberlain/ Liftmaster devices via internet.

You don't need an ethernet cable from this router to your PC. You only need an ethernet cable from the cable company modem to the router.

That is correct, does not matter where you plug the ethernet in from the router or modem. Just need to get the internet into the switch and then it does the rest, pretty easy plug and play. Other outlets can then be plugged into to any device requiring internet. Hope this helps

No. If you are just setting it up take the ethernet connection out of the back of your router and plug it into the Trendnet device to run through the CD installation. Then when it's done, put the ethernet back into the router and then go plug your Trendnet in whatever you are connecting wirelessly and your done. I just literally did it since someone hit the reset button and erased all my initial setups :).

It might help using a high speed Ethernet cord, if you have one I would try seeing if there's som wrong with your router other than that I don't know because my router is up stairs.

This should be the default set-up. There are three set-ups: Bridge, Ethernet adapter, and Repeater. I have only set these up as repeaters, but am planning on switching at least one to Ethernet. Here is a link that was quite helpful to me: http://www.thinkbroadband.com/hardware/reviews/74-asus-ea-n66.html

As stated it connects via a patch cable or ethernet cable up to couple of of hundred feet to the router. It will auto configure.

I don't have any of that issue with mine. I have the base set close to my router an several others close to a few of my other pc,s an had no instances of losing internet.im using Comcast for my ip.

Not at all. I replaced an older Cisco router with this but after less than 2 months I have to reset it everyday or no internet connection. I am going to be replacing it as the support from ASUS is terrible to say the least. No more ASUS products for me.

No. It is essentially and Ethernet splitter. I have a Ethernet line run to a room in my house from my router, this allows me to connect multiple devices to that Ethernet line instead of a wireless connection.

Yes. Just connect one of the ethernet ports from back of the gateway to the ethernet input port in the Airport. But that is duplicating the features of gateway unless you are specifically needing the features of the Airport. I simply stopped using my Airport once we got the gateway working to our satisfaction.
