Chapter 2: About
Operation Modes
This device provides operational applications with AP, Gateway 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 MANUALLY switch to the mode you desired by the manufacturer as described in the
following sections.
Operation Modes

then the device will reboot automatically into the mode you have selected.
Access Point Mode
When acting as an Access Point (AP), this device connects all the stations (PC/notebook with wireless
network adapter) to a wireless network. All stations can have the Internet access if only the Access
Point has the Internet connection.

Gateway Mode
When Gateway (GW) mode is selected, the device will enter gateway mode. And the wireless
connection will be set up from a point-to-point local LAN into a point-to-multipoint WAN.
5
Client Mode
If set to Client (Infrastructure) mode, a device connects to each other through an access point or a base
station (gateway or router.) This device can work like a wireless station when it’s connected to a
computer directly, so that the computer can send packets from wired end to wireless interface.
