The FreeWave Fusion Wi-Fi Bridge is 

designed to create a seamless Wi-Fi access 

point (AP) anywhere on a ZumLink network. 

This allows Wi-Fi devices and sensors to be 

connected in remote and rugged locations, without 

extra wiring or special networking. 

This guide will walk you through the first-time setup and 

configuration of the Fusion Wi-Fi Bridge, connecting the device to a ZumLink network  

and introducing the device’s Wi-Fi parameters and functionality. 

This guide assumes a level of familiarity with ZumLink networks. If information about 

setting up a ZumLink network is required, please visit
