4.4 Router Mode Settings

Operation Mode -> Setup

This section will explain WAN port settings and other functions that are available only in
WISP router and AP Router mode.

4.4.1 WISP Router Mode

The WISP Router mode is also known as Client Router. The wireless side is connected to
the remote AP as in Client Infrastructure mode. Between the wireless and LAN is the IP
sharing router function. This is used to share WISP connection. The WAN is on the
wireless side.

4.4.2 AP Router Mode

In AP Router mode, the POE port of the WHA-5500CPE will turn into the WAN port. The
wireless interface will become the LAN side. It will turn WHA-5500CPE into a wireless
router. Since the Ethernet interface becomes WAN; if your PC is connected to the POE
port, the management IP will change to the WAN IP (192.168.2.1). The remote
management will be automatically turned on to allow you managing the device from the
POE WAN port.
