setting is “Auto”, not every Access Points can support “Auto” mode. If the authentication type on the Access Point is known by 

the user, we suggest setting the authentication type the same as the Access Point. 

Data Encryption 

In client mode, the device supports WEP and WPA Personal/Enterprise except WPA2 mixed mode data encryption. For more 

information about the detail data encryption settings, please refer the security section. 

AP Client Router (WISP) 

The AP Client in Router (or WISP) mode is similar to the basic AP client, but instead of all the interfaces being bridged 

together, the WLAN interface is treated as the WAN connection and the ethernet interface is treated as the LAN. NAT is 

enabled and any connections made through the ethernet port are masqueraded behind the WLAN interface.  

 

In “Basic Settings” page, change the Mode to “Client” mode. And key in the SSID of the AP you want to connect then press 

“Apply Changes” button to apply the change.  

 

Check the status of connection in the “Status” web page
