Default Is the WAN port a LAN port with ethernet crossover?
Is my hunch correct the the WAN port on wifi routers is a LAN port but with an internal ethernet crossover? If so, can I convert it to a standard LAN port by attaching a PC to it with a cross-over cable (effectively canceling out the cross-over connection)?
