Section 2 - Installation Bridge Mode In the Bridge mode, the DAP-2020 wirelessly connects seperate local area networks (LANs) that can't easily be connected together with a cable. For example, if there are two wired LANs separated by a small courtyard, it would be expensive to bury cables to connect between the two sides together. A better solution is to use two DAP-2020 units to wirelessly connect the two LANs. In the Bridge mode, both DAP-2020 units do not act as APs. Note: The Bridge mode is not specified in the Wi-Fi or IEEE standards. This mode will only work using two DAP-2020 units. Communication with other APs (even other D-Link APs) is not guaranteed.
