Connecting to the Internet Router via LAN Cable
You can use a LAN cable to connect the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater to your
wireless access point or to an Internet router without wireless LAN
functionality.
Use this connection option in the following cases:
•
The Internet router does not support wireless LAN.
•
The wireless access point (Internet router) and the FRITZ!WLAN
Repeater are too far away from each other for a wireless LAN con-
nection.
•
Sources of interference, for instance concrete ceilings, prevent
establishing a wireless LAN connection.
