Using the Access Point Mode
Note: This advanced feature should be employed by advanced users only. The Router can be
configured to work as a wireless network access point. Using this mode will defeat the NAT
IP sharing feature and DHCP server. In Access Point (AP) mode, the Router will need to be
configured with an IP address that is in the same subnet as the rest of the network that
you will bridge to. The default IP address is 192.168.2.254 and subnet mask is
255.255.255.0. These can be customized for your needs.
