Last week, I discovered another quirk. Or, maybe to folks doing networking it makes total sense and I'm the one with the quirk.
For reasons that are too long winded to get into, I had to change the RAX120 from being a DHCP server and Router into just being a "Wireless AP" (which I also learned is very different from a "bridge"; my last wifi router was a "bridge" for the same long-winded reason, so I guess the terminology changed since that old wifi router came out)
Guess what? When you change it from Router to Wireless AP, the LA ports MOVE!
To do LA with a RAX120 that is a router, use the WAN Port and Port 1.
To do LA with a RAX120 that is a wireless access point, use Port 1 and Port 2.
