Does anyone know that whether there is a model of AP-7131 which the WAN is physically disable in the factory ? There are 2 AP-7131 tri-radio in my office. Both of their WAN ports are inaccessible. When I checked the WAN stats pages, they showed up "Enabled" but the links were down. I have tried to reset the units, however, the WAN ports were still "Enabled" but links down. Regards Antony

How are you powering up the AP?
Hi Chris, Alex Thanks for advising. I was using af POE. I'll check with using at POE. Regards Antony
What level of power are you using to supply the units? The WAN port can be disabled if you are running off 802.3af power only. CSH
Antony How are the AP-7131Ns being powered? How did you configure it, i.e. are you using all 3 radios? Depending on the power source (802.3af or 802.3at) you might have some of the interfaces disabled. This can be found on the AP-7131N Installation Guide:
The Power Injector (Part No. AP-PSBIAS-1P3-AFR) is a high power POE Injector delivering up to 30
watts. The access point can only use a Power Injector when connecting the unit to the access point’s
GE1/POE port. The Power Injector is separately ordered and not shipped with an existing AP SKU.
An AP-7131 and AP-7131N can also be used with the 3af power injector (AP-PSBIAS-1P2-AFR).
However, AP functionality is limited when powered by an AP-PSBIAS-1P2-AFR, since the AP has
Ethernet connectivity limited to only the GE1 port. Hope this helps.
