WLAN port? Do you mean WAN port?
You can try to set it up. Just change the VLAN and username, password. |

So one of the LAN port on the router provided by Unifi is faulty, so you want replacement for it?
Is that it? |

Most routers that are provided by the ISP is firmware locked to their own settings. Mostly using proprietary AGILE config or TR69 to customize their own settings which will only respond when key in specific settings.Time to get a good router and test out what a 3rd party router can offer, or if not, you can always rely on the used market for good and reliable. |

No more other usable ports or what?You got extra router, so reroute via LAN. Or you just want to use single router? |

the easy way is to turn the router to AP mode and plug into the LAN port and extend another SSID and turn off the SSID from your spoilt router.
