The next step of the configuration will be done over SSH/CLI. For this example we'll be using "PuTTY" - a free SSH client that can run on Windows.
Open "PuTTY", enter the router's LAN IP address into the "Host Name (or IP Address)" field and click 'Open'.

vi /etc/config/network
Then hit the "I" key on your keyboard to enable editing.
There are two distinct configurations described below. One is a [[#Static_IP|static IP]] configuration for setting the new WAN port manually, the other is [[#DHCP|DHCP]] - for automatic network configuration of the new WAN port. Follow only the instruction that suits your needs.
