Hi and welcome,
1/. you put the in bridge mode
2/. the UTM is setup with a PPPoE interface where you put your ISP login details
3/. You create a general firewall rule internal network -> any protocol -> external network -> allow
4/. you create MASQ internal network -> external interface
5/. You enable dhcp in the services tab
6/. you connect your AP which you have configures (assuming it is not a Sophos AP) to a small switch.

Basic setup and you are on your way. From there you can enable other features as you understand them.
