In IP Passthrough mode on the FWA510, all internet traffic is directed to the first LAN device you connect to it. This means that only the LAN device receives the internet IP, bypassing the Network Address Translation (NAT).
Given this setup, Wi-Fi connectivity does not work in Passthrough mode because the Wi-Fi devices do not get internet access. To facilitate Wi-Fi connectivity, it's recommended to use Router mode. In Router mode, both LAN and Wi-Fi devices can share the internet connection as expected.
