the recommended default
setting (Disabled) for the
DHCP Server function of the
DWL-900AP+. If you wish to
use the DWL-900AP+ as a
DHCP server (not
recommended if you already
have a DHCP enabled
router/gateway on your
network) then select Enabled.
Enter the IP Address range
and click Apply, if you have
made any changes.
The DWL-900AP+ can be operated in 4 different modes to meet your networking
needs. The default setting is Access Point mode.

A unique
hardware address
that identifies a
device on a
network. It is
assigned at the
factory and
cannot be
changed. Usually
you will find this
address on a
sticker on the
device or on the
packaging.
Note
: If you select to use the DWL-900AP+ in Wireless Client mode, you will need to input the Wireless
MAC Address of the Access Point you wish to associate with.
The Wireless Bridge and Multi-point Bridge mode are proprietary modes that will require DWL-
900AP+’s for both locations.
If you select to use the DWL-900AP+ in
Wireless Bridge
mode, you
will need to input the Ethernet MAC Address of the remote DWL-900AP+ rather than the Wireless MAC
address.
