Unable to set Wan IP Address

Netgear ProSafe SRX5308 VPN Firewall

I cannot set an ip address on my wan2,3,4 interface.

I can set it on my wan1 interface as the default interface to the internet.

 

As I cannot set the ip addresses on wan interfaces 2,3,4, I cannot set up any routing between the wan interfaces

They are not being done automatically by the router itself -  it does not recognise any ip addresses on these wan interfaces 2,3,4

These wan router interfaces are not being setup as a failover interfaces but as a wireless connection to the wan3 interface 

which then routes to the wan1 interface (yet to achieve) and then out to the internet.

 

I allow incoming connections to the wan3 interface in this scenario.
