Because it is not supported unless you have a business licence.

I have the xg86w, and it works fine with wifi, no additional license, but you have to set up the wifi correctly, takes a few steps.

Hallo Manuel,

den AP sieht man erst, wenn man die Bridge erzeugt hat. Das ist bei den internen WLAN-APs etwas seltsam.

Also in dem Link oben einfach mal die Schritte der Reihe nach abarbeiten.
