Wifi issues

Hello, I unplugged my wifi modem completely yesterday and now I can’t remember which LAN port to use. Does anyone have any ideas?

The WAN port should be connected to the incoming Ethernet cable if present (i.e. you have Fibre). Else you would connect the phone jack to the router.

 

LAN port 1 would be connected to another router if you have set up Port 1 bridging. Otherwise it does not matter which Lan port connects to which device, as they are fully interchangeable. See this document for more details.

Hey Justin

 

You can use any of the yellow ports (those are the LAN ports) behind the modem. Then there's the WAN (white) port. What modem are you using?
