Firewalla Gold has 4 Ethernet ports. Port 4 is the default WAN port in Router Mode, and the default port connecting to the router in Simple/DHCP Mode.
If you'd like to change the ethernet port used for WAN Connection into other port, please follow the steps below:
- Stay close to Firewalla Gold, and make sure the Red security dongle is connected to the USB port on the Gold.
- On Firewalla App -> Network Manager, tap Edit on the top right corner.
- Tap a LAN connection to open the detail page, tap any port you'd like to use for WAN connection to un-select it (e.g. Port 3), tap Done.
- Tap the WAN connection, change the ethernet port from Port 4 to Port 3.
- Tap Done -> Save.
- Unplug ethernet cable connected to Port 4, and plug it into Port 3.
- Wait for 1 minute and pull down the screen to reload the App.

It would be nice if when you change the WAN port, the Yellow Ring would move over to the new WAN port being used rather than staying on Port 4.
I realize thats the default WAN and just mirroring what is physically on the front of the Firewalla, but I still think it would be a nice indicator that you've successfully moved the WAN port.
