6.5 The Ethernet WAN Screen
Use the Ethernet WAN screen to convert LAN port number four as a WAN port for Ethernet
Internet access and to restore it back from a WAN port to a LAN port.
It’s not enough to just enable LAN 4 as a WAN port here. You must also go to Network Setting >
Broadband screen and create a new interface for it with the Type as Ethernet and
Encapsulation as IPoE, and it’s advisable to enable NAT.
Note: You cannot have DSL and Ethernet WAN connections working at the same time.
Click Network Setting > Broadband > Ethernet WAN to display the following screen.
