Q1. What should I do if I want to use 1 Gbps WAN/LAN port for internet service?****

to the modem via an Ethernet cable. If it is not, contact your internet
service provider.

whether the internet IP address is valid or not. If it’s valid, go to Advanced
Network > Internet, click Advanced Settings, select Use the Following DNS Addresses, set the primary DNS to 8.8.8.8, and set the secondary DNS to 8.8.4.4. If it is not, check the hardware connection or contact your internet service provider.
