just like the title, do I plug the FWG gold lan 4 into a LAN port on the Alien, or the WAN port on the Alien, if I want my Alien mesh system to run in bridge mode, and let the FWG do all the routing?

thanks

  thank you, I have read that, I am just a bit unsure if I connect the cable to the aliens WAN port, or one of its LAN ports if I want to use the FWG as my router, and my Alien MESH in bridge mode(wifi only)

  thanks again, love this product!

  Here's my setup:
  Cable modem->FWG port 4->FWG port3->Alien wan port

  FWG router mode
  Alien bridge mode

  Hope this helps!
