Ethernet/Bridge Settings
To enable the Ethernet-to-Wireless function, also called Wireless Client, go to the
Ethernet/Bridge
Settings
page and enable
Ethernet Bridge
. When it's enabled, the LAN and WLAN will use the same IP
configuration (use the same IP address, netmask and gateway settings).
ATTENTION
In dynamic IP environments, the NPort will send three requests every 30 seconds to the DHCP server until
the network settings have successfully been assigned. The first request will time out after one second; the
second request will time out after three seconds, and the third request will timeout after five second. If the
DHCP server is unavailable, the NPort will use the factory default network settings.
