AP Mode

5.1 Overview

This chapter discusses how to configure settings while your NBG-417N is set to AP
Mode. Many screens that are available in Router Mode are not available in AP
Mode.

Chapter 6 on page 61

for an example of setting up a wireless network in

AP mode.

Use your NBG-417N as an AP if you already have a router or gateway on your
network. In this mode your device bridges a wired network (LAN) and wireless
LAN (WLAN) in the same subnet. See the figure below for an example.
