    Very great video but from 1:34 minute there is a mistake on the first router on the left side saying "WAN". It should say "LAN".

      You have an eagle's eye!
      Indeed, there's a typo in the top LAN network. It should read "LAN" next to the 192.168.1.1 IP address, not "WAN".
      Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

      LAN ports are designed for connecting devices within your local network, allowing them to communicate with each other. WAN ports, on the other hand, are used to connect the router itself to the internet, typically through a modem or an upstream router.

    So I want to plug my BMS controller into a WAN port on the router or LAN?

      For connecting a BMS controller to your network via a router, you typically plug it into a LAN port on the router. LAN ports are designed for connecting devices within your local network, allowing them to communicate with each other. WAN ports, on the other hand, are used to connect the router itself to the internet, typically through a modem or an upstream router.

    Can someone who worked on my macbook be connected thru this and I not know??

      No - that is highly unlikely, unless some sort of malware is installed on the MacBook

    does not explain very much. What the config differences? these are important. For instance: how do you configure a RPI port to act as a WAN interface?

    Should I plug my Ethernet cable into my lan or wan/lan port

      You need to connect your home network devices to the LAN ports on your router. WAN is only used to connect the router to the modem.

      Hello, whether you should plug Ethernet cable into the LAN or WAN port depends on the specific results you are trying to achieve. LAN ports are used for devices that are part of your internal network, such as computers, printers, gaming consoles, etc. WAN port is used to connect your router to the internet, typically via another router or modem provided by your internet service provider (ISP).
