Hello, I need to change the default GW on my Fortinet 80E, this FW also acts as a wifi controller, my question is this disconnect the AP? Or does it not matter?

Thanks a lot

    No if your AP's are on local networks.

    Hello, thanks for the quick reply, 10 Wlan APP are in the LAN where I have to change the IP address of the GW other 5 are in another VLAN. If I change the IP address from 192.168.0.254 to 192.168.0.253 (LAN) I do not have to change it anywhere?

    Changing the LAN Adress of the Fortigate is not the same than changing the default gateway.
