types of operation mode.
Router
The wired Ethernet (WAN) port is used to connect with ADSL/Cable modem and
the wireless NIC is used for your private WLAN. The NAT is existed between the 2
NIC and all the wireless clients share the same public IP address through the WAN
port to ISP. The default IP configuration for WAN port is static IP. You can access
the web server of device through the default WAN IP address 172.1.1.1 and modify
the setting base on your ISP requirement.
Bridge
The wired Ethernet and wireless NIC are bridged together. Once the mode is
selected, all the WAN related functions will be disabled.
WISP (Wireless ISP)
This mode can let you access the AP of your wireless ISP and share the same public
IP address form your ISP to the PCs connecting with the wired Ethernet port of the
device. To use this mode, first you must set the wireless radio to be client mode and
connect to the AP of your ISP then you can configure the WAN IP configuration to
meet your ISP requirement.
The wireless radio of the device acts as the following roles.
AP (Access Point)
The wireless radio of device serves as communications “hub” for wireless clients
and provides a connection to a wired LAN.
AP Client
This mode provides the capability to connect with the other AP using
infrastructure/Ad-hoc networking types. With bridge operation mode, you can
directly connect the wired Ethernet port to your PC and the device becomes a
wireless adapter. And with WISP operation mode, you can connect the wired
Ethernet port to a hub/switch and all the PCs connecting with hub/switch can share
the same public IP address from your ISP.
WDS (Wireless Distribution System)
This mode serves as a wireless repeater; the device forwards the packets to another
AP with WDS function. When this mode is selected, all the wireless clients can’t
survey and connect to the device. The device only allows the WDS connection.
WDS+AP
This mode combines WDS plus AP modes, it not only allows WDS connections but
