Good afternoon everyone.
I have Plustnet hub two and I am trying to connect my router to it through WAN. It seems I cannot not enable the WAN port in hub 2. Any tips?
Many thanks in advance.
Leonio
Fixed! Go to the fix.

The WAN port on the Hub 2 is to connect it to the Internet via a modem or ONT ( fibre modem )
What are you trying to achieve ?

Hi MisterW,
WAN port on Hub 2 looks like this below.

I am connecting to the internet through the DSL.
I am trying to archive WAN connection through my own router GT-AX6000. Operation mode: Wireless router
It suppose to look like this on YouTube video:
https://youtu.be/6eqBhxIJ2ow?t=442
But on mine it shows the cable is connected but there is no WAN IP and looks like this 0.0.0.0.
Is there a way to enable the WAN port from the hub 2?

OK, so you need to
1. set the Hub 2 to bridge mode
2. Connect the WAN port of your router to a LAN port ( any of 1 to 3 ) on the Hub 2
3. Configure your WAN connection on your router for PPPoE with your plusnet username & password
Nb the username is your account suffixed with @plusdsl.net

No. In bridge mode it is effectively a dsl modem. WiFi is disabled.
The led will show pink when connected in bridge mode
