ASUS Wireless Router

Chapter 3 - Software Configuration

Wireless (Cont.)

AP Mode

AP (Access Point) Mode configures the ASUS Wireless Router for a specific
application. By default, the ASUS Wireless Router is configured as an
Access Point which enables wireless mobile clients to connect wirelessly
to a wired Ethernet network. The following options are available from the
drop-down list:

AP Only: the ASUS Wireless Router acts only as an Access Point.

WDS Only (WL500g/WL500g Deluxe): the ASUS Wireless Router
can only communicate with other Access Points.

Hybrid: Hybrid allows you to use the ASUS Wireless Router both as
an access point and as a wireless bridge.

Channel

Both Access Points in Wireless Bridge mode must be set to the same channel.

Connect to APs in Remote Bridge List (Yes/No)

Select Yes to connect to access points in the remote bridge list.

Allow anonymous? (Yes/No) (WL500g/WL500g Deluxe)

Select Yes to allow users without accounts to connect.

Note: If “Connect to APs in Remote Bridge List” and “Allow Anony-
mous” are both set to “No”, it means that this AP will not connect with
other APs and therefore the AP mode setting will return to “AP Only”.
