wow, yeah crazy...well I am sure Fraser and his team will hopefully get you figured out. I guess we will see...

this is what is worrying me about your home router...

no, so if you have a pc at home, and you connect that pc in one of the Huawei ports. you can go to settings and check that lan port properties in the pc to see what the link speed is...

I would say this is odd to be a defected port, as usually defect is hardware related and the outcome will be no connection at all. but I seen weirder stuff before.... usually the uplink will give you the speed that is getting from the host (your router)... can you connect your router cable from any of the 2 lans to a pc and see what the speed are? not bandwidth speed but link speed... again just suggestions...:)

there are 2 ports in your home router, lan/wan and lan (bottom and top), once you make them only lan, they work just like a regular router. if you plug any of the 2 in the R2 uplink...they both show only 100?

What I meant is the router he has is a cellular modem/router (based in the model number he provided previously)…I am thinking his internet provider is cellular (sim card)…looking at this model online, it only has two ethernet ports...wan/LAN and LAN. If he is using cellular (SIM Card), then the WAN/LAN port in his router needs to be set as LAN, not anything else. I could be wrong as I don't really know what his home network really is, but working with cellular/router devices before, this was always an issue for me. Again just a suggestion, hopefully he can get it resolved soon

I think the OP is using cellular as the source of internet, I also think all ethernet ports should be set as LAN in the system settings. I seen this in PepLink devices before. Just a suggestion...
