This guide describes installation for the WNHDE111 5 GHz Wireless-N HD Access Point/
Bridge or the WNHDEB111 HD/Gaming 5 GHz Wireless-N Networking Kit.
1.
Familiarize yourself with the features of the Wireless-N Bridge.
The mode switch can be set to:
•
Auto
. In Auto mode, the Wireless-N Bridge will automatically sense and set its
own mode. It will run in AP mode if connected to a router or gateway. Otherwise,
if connected to any other wired device(s), it will run in Bridge mode. (The
Wireless-N Bridge is set to Auto mode from the factory.)
•
AP
. In AP (access point) mode, the Wireless-N Bridge will act as an access point.
In this mode, the Wireless-N Bridge should be connected to a router.
•
Bridge
. In Bridge mode, the Wireless-N Bridge is connected to your other wired
device(s) and will connect wirelessly to the Wireless-N Bridge being used as an
access point.
2.
Verify that:
•
You have Broadband Internet access through a powered-on router or gateway.
