The AirStation may be used as either a full wireless router or a simple access point. The

switch has three positions:
ON (Router Mode) - The default LAN-side IP address is 192.168.11.1 and DHCP and NAT are

enabled.
OFF (AP Mode) - The default LAN-side IP address of the AirStation is 192.168.11.100, and

DHCP and NAT are disabled. The WAN port becomes a fifth LAN port.
AUTO - The AirStation will attempt to detect another router on the network. If one is

detected, it will switch to AP Mode, but get its IP address from the router’s DHCP. If no

router is detected, then the AirStation will switch to Router Mode. AUTO is the default

setting, and is recommended for most users.
