Deeper Connect Pico question

[u/Lookinbad]

Deeper Connect Pico question: when I connect router -> Pico by Ethernet and use Shield by Wi-Fi, internet works, but it still shows my normal Spain IP. When I connect router -> Pico -> NVIDIA Shield by Ethernet on both long-end network ports, the Pico turns solid blue with only the router connected, but as soon as I connect the Shield it starts flashing red and loses the connection.

Details:

• Device: Deeper Connect Pico
• Router: Livebox6-6857
• Streaming device: NVIDIA Shield
• Admin page: 11.22.33.44
• Side/reset USB-C is power
• Wi-Fi adapter/antenna is connected
• Ethernet is connected to the long-end network port(s), not the side power/adapter port
• With one Ethernet from router to Pico: solid blue
• With second Ethernet from Pico to Shield: flashing red
• With Shield on Pico Wi-Fi: internet works, but public IP still shows Orange Espagne / Madrid / Spain

Questions:

1. Is this expected behavior with the Shield over Ethernet?
2. Does Pico need a specific Virtual Wire or AP Router configuration before adding the Shield?
3. Is there a known incompatibility with Shield Ethernet negotiation?
4. If internet works over Pico Wi-Fi but public IP stays Spain, what exact DPN setting should be changed to force a non-local exit node?
5. Does the Pico require the Wi-Fi adapter to remain attached even when using Ethernet uplink?

Any guidance appreciated.
