AP Modes

Access Point Only

The ASUS Pocket Wireless AP is set to Access Point Only mode by default.
In this mode, the device only performs as an AP that connects wireless
clients to a wired Ethernet network. The picture below illustrates the device
in Access Point Only mode.

Hybrid-Active

When set to Hybrid-Active mode, the ASUS Pocket Wireless AP actively
connects to all APs specified in the MAC address list upon startup to form a
wireless bridge while maintaining connection with the wireless clients in its
own network. The MAC address list is enabled when the AP mode is set to
Hybrid-Active.

requests from other APs to form a wireless bridge. The MAC address list is
disabled when you select this mode.
