W IRELESS C LIENT
The 11n Router can operate as a wireless client on one SSID interface,
which enables a connection to another Wi-Fi network, such as a Wireless
Internet Service Provider (WISP). When the wireless client (or WISP mode)
option is enabled, the client SSID interface functions as an external
gateway WAN port, and the other SSID interface and LAN ports all function
as the local network within the same IP subnet.
