Bridge vs Router
Each 450U-E when configured as a bridge uses a single IP address for Ethernet and Wireless connections. A Bridge
connects devices within the same Ethernet network - for example, extending an existing Ethernet LAN.
A Router The IP addresses for the Ethernet and the Wireless sides must be
different. In this example, the wireless link is part of LAN A, with the Client (Station) unit acting as the Router between LAN
A and LAN B.
Alternately, the Access Point could be configured as a Router. The wireless link is then part of LAN B.
