Router as a WAP?  I've done this numerous times: ignore the WAN unless it
has an 'access point' mode which turns the WAN into a LAN port.  Program
LAN as part of the LAN subnet and plugin the switch connection to the LAN
of the WAP Router.

Don't use WAN, leave that page un-programmed or set to some other unused
subnet if it requires IPs.
