Mode switch settings Auto. Auto is the factory default setting. In Auto mode, if it senses it
is connected to a router or gateway, it automatically sets itself to run
as an AP. Otherwise, if connected to any other wired device, it
automatically sets itself to run in Bridge mode.
AP. When switched to AP (access point) mode, it acts as an access
point. In this mode, connect it to a router. The free Ethernet port can
be used to connect other equipment to your network via an Ethernet
cable.
Bridge. In Bridge mode, connect devices to it via Ethernet cables
and they will connect to your wireless network. Typically, when a unit
is set to bridge mode, it will be paired with a WNHDE111 working in
AP mode.
