cannot connect WAN
For the model number, I have the RAX45. Couldnt find that in the list so went with RAX40 above (as the closest to it).
Orignal setup - hooked my WAN line from service provided into an AirCube which then transmits WiFI. My provider uses a fiber/wireless hybrid network, with a dish mounted on the roof. What I get is an RJ45 plug.
1) I can take a cable, plug into Gigbit Ethernet output port on AirCube, and plug that line into the Internet port of the NetGear. Everything works just fine that way.
2) If I take the WAN line from service provider and instead of plugging into AirCube, plug into Internet port on NetGear, I get nothing. i would fully expect this to work. Not sure if this is a setting issue or maybe I just have the wrong netgear router.
Would like some guidance/suggestions on this. thanks

Re: cannot connect WAN
The Aircube is an access point, not a router.
have you tried putting the netgear in access point mode?
