Using the Configuration Menu (continued) Advanced > Mode The DWL-2000AP can be configured to perform in any of four modes: a Wireless Access Point; a Wireless Client; a Wireless Bridge; or a Multi-Point Bridge. 1 Access Point mode is the default setting. This mode is used to create a wireless LAN. 2 Wireless Client mode will transform any IEEE 802.3 Ethernet device (e.g., a computer, printer, etc.) into an 802.11b wireless client, if you are connecting to another DWL-2000AP when it is acting as an Access Point. 3 Wireless Bridge mode will allow you to connect two LANs together. The wireless bridge will only work with another DWL-2000AP. 4 Multi-Point Bridge mode will allow you to connect multiple wireless LANs together. Other wireless LANs must be using DWL-2000APs. 17
