Chapter 3: Choose the Operation Mode

The Wireless Client

Under this mode, your Synology Router works as a Wi-Fi dongle (that is, a Wi-Fi client) and relies on the Wi-Fi

signal from another router or access point for Internet access.

The Wireless Client mode is recommended in the scenario below:

• When you need Internet access, but a wired connection is hard to set up between your Synology Router and

another router/ISP modem

Below is the suggested usage:

• Clients have to connect to the Synology Router (at the LAN port) with a network cable for Internet access.

Note:

1. Under this mode, your Synology Router must be within the range of the Wi-Fi source (e.g. a Wi-Fi router). If not,

the received Wi-Fi signal may be weak and affect the connection quality.

2. Wireless client devices cannot connect to the Synology Router to access the Internet.
