Did you modify just the /etc/config/lime* files or also the others?
I have no idea if this can be done also via the web-ui (I don't think so).
Ah ok! So it's a Ubiquiti NanoStation M2 LoCo

There are two ways in your case:
* configuring LibreMesh for using that ethernet port as WAN (as Pau is
going to write in the web); * otherwise
just plugging the cable from the gateway device into the
secondary port of Nanostation M2 (your model has 2 ethernet ports,
right?)
No, I have the little M2 which only has one ethernet port. I do have eth0 and eth1 interfaces though
For the LoCo XM model (as well for other models with just 1 ethernet
port) the "bullet" image should be used [1]. For XW hardware with one
ethernet port (also stuff like newest AirGrid models) there's a
"loco-m-xw" image.
If you see two ethernet could be because you used the "nano" image.
I suppose that there's no problem of having an unused eth1...?
