FIREWALL RANGE EXTENDER MODE (WWAN) OVERVIEW
Firewall Range Extender mode functions similarly to a router that connects to a Wi-Fi network instead of wired
to a modem. It is a Range Extender that creates a secure firewall between the Source Network and the
Extended Network. In addition to a firewall, the Firewall Range Extender also features its own DHCP server for
assigning IP addresses to connecting users. All devices connected to the Extended Network (wired and
wireless) are protected from the Source Network and the Internet. The Extended Network and Source Network
are two completely separate networks.
