How do I connect Cerbo GX Ethernet connection to both Router and MFD?

I want to connect my Cerbo GX with both:

1. a router for remote control via internet and

2. a Raymarine Axiom Pro MFD,

but there is only one Ethernet Plug on the Cerbo.

Is it possible to use an Ethernet Y-Adapter to get both devices connected (and proper working)?

Thanks for answering!

Cheers

Chris

Hello eneurg, I did the same on the CCGX. I use a USB Wifi dongle for Internet access via WFi and the Ethernet cable to make the connection to the MFD.

(on your Cerbo, since it has built-in WiFi, there is no need for the USB wifi dongle)

This works perfectly.

Regards, Rob

EDIT MV: I added the Cerbo note between ( and )
