NX200: switch LAN3/WAN

Model: Archer NX200

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.4.0 3.0.0 v60a2.0

I've got an NX200 5G router. I couldn't figure out how the LAN3/WAN port would work as an LAN port. The other two LAN ports work well.

I didn't change something at the preset settings on port forwarding / DHCP / DNS / ...

Is there a setting somewhere to change the WAN port to be the LAN3 port?

Tried already to restart it. When I connect the same device with the same cable to the LAN1 or LAN2 port it does work.

Thanks

I solved it on my own with the help from an other customer anserwing my question at Amazon:

Go to settings / Advanced / Internet --> delete all entries in the table "internet settings". Then the LAN3 Port will be changed from WAN to LAN3.

Even TP-Link support didn't knew that - they gave me the option to get a new device...

Additional information: It does recognize the cable. But the port is listed as WAN and not LAN3. So, there might be an option somewhere to switch that? Couldn’t find it yet…

@123421 I have this same problem with my new NX200 router, as I def need all those 3 LAN ports for my hubs. I went to see firmwares available, and got confused as the latest published firmware was older version..so I thought to pick up biggest in version number - a mistake! It seems that EU version 1_4_... Is not recognising 3 LAN ports, whatever you do. But when I installed latest, but older firmware version 1_3_... router started to work smoothly and all LAN ports are now in use!

@CountBobular

What should I do if I want to change the LAN/WAN port from default WAN port to LAN port?
- Log in to the web management page of the router, and go to Advanced > Network > Internet to verify the default gateway. If it is in Auto mode, delete the profile from the Internet Setup list and click Save. Then the default WAN port will change to LAN port
