Use the Router as a WiFi Access Point Only By default, the router functions as both a router and a WiFi access point (AP). You can set up the router to function as an access point only and let it operate in the same local network as another router. When the router functions as an access point only, many of its router-related features are disabled. Tip If you want to change the router's function, use a wired connection to avoid being disconnected when the new function takes effect. Manage the Advanced WiFi Features 115
