Set up lan port 1 as wan port for netgear R7000

Question

I have a netgear r7000 router. Recently, my wan port doesn't seem to be working. I wonder if there is a way to configure the lan1 port to replace the line lan port. Thank

What Firmware version is currently loaded?What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too? Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended.
