I regularly use ether1 as a WAN and disable ether2, as I might want to use it as another WAN port later. Keeps things neat and tidy.
Not the purpose I want it for, so the question remains - can I just enable
Of course! : ) Just watch out for some scripted or automated task that might be configured to disable again under some conditions... e.g. check system->scripts and system->schedule and tools->netwatch in particular. Since you say that you didn't do the original config yourself, there's no guessing why anyone would set it like that - other than did it 'temporarily' for some reason (like to access the router admin interface without putting the connected device on the LAN) and then forgot to 'undo' it ; ) Cheers! Mike. the
port in the bridge?
