Here is w3wilkes information from a previous post. I assume that this is true in wireless and hybrid, but must not be true for bridged. The thing that is curious about your problem is after reset, the controller/receiver communication results in a failure when the receiver is connected to ethernet but no wifi present, however, when you provide wifi, it succeeds. I am not knowledgeable enough of what the inner working of the setup is doing to identify what is different, what your test indicates. The only wildcard could be if it's an intermittent issue, and it was only by chance that it succeeded. Maybe you can try to replicate to confirm. Maybe someone else more knowledgeable can comment. In the mean time, make sure you are standing close to the receiver with the controller when you are trying to setup. I have a receiver in my detached garage that I have to take the controller out there to get it working, but once setup, it runs off the wifi fine..
