Router
In this mode, this device can provide shared Internet Access to all your LAN
users. Also, by default, it acts a DHCP Server, providing an IP address and
related information to all Wireless and LAN users.
Access
Point
The device links your Wireless Stations to your wired LAN. The Wireless
stations and devices on the wired LAN are then on the same network, and
can communicate with each other without regard for whether they are
connected to the network via a Wireless or wired connection.
You need to have a DHCP Server on your LAN to provide IP addresses to
the Wireless clients using this Access Point.
Notes:
• Generally, you should NOT use access point mode. Only select this mode if you are sure
this is what you want.
• After changing the mode, this device will restart, which will take a few seconds. The
menu will also be changed, depending on the mode you are in.
• For details on using Access Point Mode, see Chapter 8.
