Hi

 

Warning: newbie

 

Can someone explain to me what the first port tagged WAN is? The router only has 5 physical ports, so what is this used for? And what does "USB Modem" mean?

 

Thanks

Hi  @JRohde 

It is the USB WAN.

USB modem is a product that you can use it for cellular signal and use it as a USB dongle for Internet.
