cAPac no nternet

So, I have just repurposed a cAPac and configured it with the Quick Set in Home Dual mode but it will not give me Internet access. I have not made any additional configurations beyond the Quick Set wizard where I set up both wlans and set up the WAN connection as automatic.
Are there any further configurations necessary to get access to the Internet?
The WAN port on the cAPac (eth01) is connected to a bridged router that on other devices I have tested just bridges the WAN public IP and DNS to the router. On other devices it works fine by just setting the router to Automatic for the WAN port. Not sure if this is the problem or if DNS or firewall rules need to be configured on the cAPac.

Your configuration will tell more: /export file=anynameyoulike
Be aware, though profiding the option, a cAP ac is an accesspoint.

OK, I'll download and send the config.
Do you mean to say that you would be inclined not to use the cAPac as a router but rather just as a wireless bridge?

Thanks for the reply. This is now solved. It was a faulty cable - nothing to do with the cAPac. So this AP really does work with the default config right out of the box.
