SOHO can't connect to a confirmed working internet connection

I recently bought a Pepwave Soho but it cannot connect to the DLink modem required by Time Warner.

[li]The following setup works perfectly:[/li][LIST]
[li]Cable in wall ----> DLINK DCM301 ----> Laptop (Ubuntu)[/li][/ul]
[li]But this doesn’t:[/li][ul]
[li]Cable in wall ----> DLINK DCM301 ----(in WAN port of SOHO)—> SOHO ----> Laptop (Ubuntu)[/li][/ul]
[/LIST]

I can connect via 192.168.50.1 to view the control panel, but the WAN Connection Status is always a spinning gif saying “Connecting…”.
The Wifi works fine, I can connect to it on my phone - just no internet connection :frowning:

I’m pretty sure Time Warner here in NYC is just a simple default settings DCHP connection, but this doesn’t work. I tried playing around with PPPoE using a Time Warner email address from before but that didn’t work either.

Can anyone help diagnose the problem? I can provide screenshots/pictures etc
