It does not matter of the clients are connected to the extender wireless access point radios or to the LAN port - the MAC address translation will happen anyway.

In either case, the LAN port will be bridged trough a WIFi connection - unless the extender does run in FastLane mode, it's configurable which uplink band is used:
Should this band not have an uplink connection - here it's the 2.4 GHz which as none (so the above does work) - the LAN port would not have a connection to the primary router and the Internet.
Information about details are everything - without it's hard to help.
- Well it works when I connect to it over WiFi but not through the port. I'll check the settings.
