NETGEAR Wireless N150 Access Point WN604 Reference Manual
Advanced Configuration 5-7
v1.0, March 2010
• Wireless Point-to-Multi-Point Bridge. Select this only if this WN604 is the “Master” for a
group of bridge-mode wireless access points.
The other bridge-mode wireless access points must be set to point-to-point bridge mode, using
the MAC address of this WN604. They then send all traffic to this “Master”, rather than
communicate directly with each other.
When you click the Edit button, you must enter the profile name and the MAC address
(physical address) of the other bridge mode wireless station in the fields provided (see
Figure 5-5 below). WEP, WPA-PSK, or WPA2-PSK are supported. WPA2-PSK can (and
should) be used to protect this communication.
The AP can associate with wireless clients if this option is enabled.
• Client mode. In this mode the access point acts as a client. It is used to extend the LAN of
clients that do not have wireless connectivity
The screens used to configure these options are located by selecting Wireless Bridge under the
Configuration tab.
Follow the steps below to configure bridging on your WN604:
1. Click the Enable Wireless Bridging checkbox (see Figure 5.4 above).
2. Select one of the following options:
