R7800 reboots in AP mode

For a long time my R7800 was working fine in normal mode.   Recently I got a firewalla and then put R7800 in AP mode .   if I do that, the system stays on only for a few minutes and then reboots....

WAN port is not connected as it is in AP mode. 

Then try connecting the WAN port to the router instead of one of the LAN ports.
