Questions:
1. Is the AP just an AP or is it a wireless router you are using as an AP? You need this AP to function as only an AP so that it will allow comm to go up to the Gate. You also need to make sure it isn't doing any vlan tagging or anything.
2. Do you have a DHCP server enabled on the internal interface that the AP is connecting to?

1. it is a wireless router i am using as acces point. this router is my internet connection on wan1.
2. the dhcp is not enabled in fortigate.only in the AP
i solved it with creating a rule for wan1 > internet for DHCP protocol. now it works.
but now i have to forward a port, that i can reach a device from external. is this possible with the 40c in transparent mode ? the port forward is allready configured in my router (fritz box).
can anyone help me ? i think port forward is not possible on transparent mode. is this true ?
