Ubiquiti AP, Unifi can't find it, i'm an idiot

Ok, so this is what I have
Edge Router X plugged into Pc on Eth1 (runs fine) Wan+2Lan2
Eth0 is Modem
Eth2 is Poe injector which is then plugged into an ubiquiti Unifi AP AC PRO.

The problem, the router detects that the AP is plugged in, but it does not get assigned an ip address (idk if this matters or not) and the Unifi Software does not detect that the AP is plugged in, so no WiFi,
The AP when plugged in flashes white till it gets to the solid white state (if this helps)
I have don't nothing else with the Edge Router X or AP, i'm probably just a newb and missed something stupid.

Did you assign a subnet and gateway address to eth2? I'm assuming they aren't bridged in your config

Eth1-4 are all bridged, I got it to find the ap after switching to basic instead of wan+2lan2 but it failed to adopt the ap

ok, been on vacation just starting back at it, my AP is now adopted and has its own ip address according to unifi, my edgerouter isn't showing one for it (nor does it for pc but i think its cause they're both hooked up via dhcp?)
But anyways i cannot figure out how to setup a wireless netowork via unifi for the ap, its connected and adopted, it lets me change the name, etc... but i'm not seeing an option to create a network, it gives me options under network to configure ip (set to dhcp)
Wlans both 2G & 5G are both set to default, Radios for 2G and 5G are H20 & H40, but i can't find anything to create the wifi network name, password etc.....
