Can I hard wire 4 Ethernet cables into one base unit? null

Nest Wifi router has 2 Ethernet ports. One of the ports connects to the modem's WAN port to receive the internet connection, and the other port can be used to wire a device (laptop,desktop PC, etc.). You can wire a switch with 4 Ethernet ports to the available port of the router.

Support says yes but the info provided is useless. When I follow instructions I get nothing. Additionally if it did work the switch says it's only 10/100 no gigabit transfer. Support says nothing about this.

No. It only has space for one Ethernet cord.
