WiFi 6 AX1800 Dual Band Wireless Access Point WAX204 The page adjusts. 7. Click the Setup bridge mode wireless settings button. The Wireless Settings pop-up window displays. 8. Enter the WiFi settings of the WAX204 access point, WiFi router, or AP that is connected to the modem (that is, the other device): a. From the Choose a Wireless Network menu, select the WiFi band that the other device is using. b. In the Name (SSID) field, type the WiFi network name (SSID) that the other device is using. c. In the Security Options section, select the radio button for the WiFi security that the other device is using. d. In the Password (Network Key) field, type the passphrase (WiFi password) that the other device is using for the SSID to which you want to connect the access point. 9. Click the Apply button. Your settings are saved. The pop-up window closes. 10. To change the device name of the access point, enter a new name in the Device Name field. By default, the device name is the access point model (WAX204). If you use two WAX204 access points and you want to distinguish the names, you could, for example, change the name to WiFi bridge or something similar. 11. To let the access point that functions as the WiFi bridge get an IP address and DNS addresses dynamically from the other WAX204 access point, WiFi router, or AP that is connected to the modem, leave the Get IP Address Dynamically and Get DNS Server Address Dynamically check boxes selected. We recommend that you leave the Get IP Address Dynamically and Get DNS Server Address Dynamically check boxes selected. However, if you are sure that you must use a static IP address, use an IP address from the LAN IP address pool of the WAX204 access point, WiFi router, or AP that is connected to the modem. To specify a static IP address for the access point that functions as the WiFi bridge, do the following: a. Clear the Get IP Address Dynamically check box. The Get DNS Server Address Dynamically check box is automatically cleared. b. Enter all static IP address information and, if applicable, static DNS address information.
