I got connected with xfinity with my SB8200v3 and I used 1 ethernet port to connect a switch to. I have 3 PCs connected to the switch but only 1 is getting internet. I tried looking into the setting of the modem and the app but neither one will give me any options. I have been trying to look this up and can’t figure out anything other than I might be in bridge mode but can’t figure out how to get out of bridge mode if I am.

SB8200v3 only 1 connection even with switch

SB8200 is just a cable modem so connecting switch to the modem LAN port will not provide multiple IP to get internet on all ethernet ports on the switch so you need to connect router to the modem ethernet port then connect switch to the router LAN port to access internet all ethernet port on the switch.
