Your a waste of time and you should stop trolling. So some of us dont speak networking or know all the proper terms, you dont have to be so brash or arrogant. But that's ok because I dont spend my time wasting it on waiting for you to answer instead of lenghty conversations.

"LAN" and "wired" are spelled differently for a reason.
"LAN" = "Local-Area Network". That would include both your wired and
wireless connections. The LAN Ethernet ports on your router are labeled
"LAN". There are no places to hang labels on wireless connections, so
they are not labeled "LAN" in the same way, but they're still part of
your LAN.

It may be apparent to you. With my weak psychic powers, it's not
apparent to me, hence the question. I'd expect it to be easier to
answer the question than to argue about how irrelevant the answer might
be. My time is apparently more valuable to me than it is to you. I'd
prefer to waste less of it this way.

Again, with my weak psychic powers, that tells me exactly nothing
about what you did or what happened when you did it.
Did I miss something, or do we still not know what the LED indicators
on the R6400v2 indicate? Plenty of other unanswered questions, too.
Look for "?".

It has no maker or model number? Really?
