2.1 About the Operation Modes

This device provides four operational applications with Access Point, Bridge, Client (Ad-hoc) and Client
(Infrastructure)
modes, which are mutually exclusive.

This device is shipped with configuration that is functional right out of the box. If you want to change the
settings in order to perform more advanced configuration or even change the mode of operation, you can use
the web-based utility provided by the manufacturer as described in the following sections.

2.1.1 Access Point Mode

When acting as an access point, this device connects all the stations (PC/notebook with wireless network
adapter) to a wired network. All stations can have the Internet access if only the Access Point has the Internet
connection.
See the sample application below.

To set the operation mode to Access Point, please go to “Mode” field and select the “AP” mode.
