Hello. I use the mobile WAN internet connection (through mobile carrier) capability of TP LINK NX510v v.1 and I want  to use WAN/LAN3 port to add a 3rd device wired to internet. When I connect an ethernet cable on port the device is not connected to internet. How can i make WAN to change to LAN from router settings?

I guess that WAN/LAN3 port is used as output only when is connected to an access point. So I cannot share internet from this port.

Hi,

 

If it works in mobile WAN mode, the WAN/LAN port should work as the LAN port and be able to connect end device.

 

You can try to reboot the device and also test with different Ethernet cables and wired devices.

If you get this router from your ISP, you can contact them for further support.
