Figure 3-7 Operation Mode
AP Client Router -
In this mode, the device enables multi-users to share Internet from WISP.
The LAN port devices share the same IP from WISP through Wireless port. While connecting
to WISP, the Wireless port works as a WAN port at AP Client Router mode. The Ethernet
port acts as a LAN port.
AP Router -
In this mode, the device enables multi-users to share Internet via ADSL/Cable
Modem. The wireless port share the same IP to ISP through Ethernet WAN port. The
Wireless port acts the same as a LAN port while at AP Router mode.
Access Point -
In this mode, the device can be connected to a wired network and transform
the wired access into wireless that multiple devices can share together, especially for a
home, office or hotel where only wired network is available.
Multi-SSID -
In this mode, the device can create up to 4 wireless networks labeled with
different SSIDs and assign each SSID with different security or VLAN, especially for the
situation when the various access policies and functions are required.
Repeater(Range Extender) -
In this mode, the device can copy and reinforce the existing
wireless signal to extend the coverage of the signal, especially for a large space to eliminate
signal-blind corners.
Bridge with AP -
In this mode, the device can be used to combine multiple local networks
together to the same one via wireless connections, especially for a home or office where
separated networks can't be connected easily together with a cable.
Client -
In this mode, the device can be connected to another device via Ethernet port and
act as an adaptor to grant your wired devices access to a wireless network, especially for a
Smart TV, Media Player, or game console only with an Ethernet port.
