Model: ER605 (TL-R605)  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.2.1

I've been using Omada for a while but haven't so far explored advanced features, so sorry in advance for probably silly question... I connected my old AP to port 2 of my TL-R605, which is set as WAN/LAN1 (which will serve as a backup). The AP provides DHCP, the WAN port gets the IP address... So far, so good. But I would like to be able to connect to AP's web UI from my LAN - is it possible somehow? Like e.g., to map IP/port from WAN to some port on the gateway?

  @ZdenekM You should be able to freely connect to things outside your firewall.

 

You should automatically getting routes to the IPs directly connected to your WAN ports.

 

How are you trying to connect to the AP and what happens when you try?

  @Alex789 Thanks for reply. For some reason, it now works, so it was probably some unknown issue :) I just wasn't sure whether it is supposed to work or some extra step is required...
