Client configuration
As a wireless client, the NTC-40WV is able to connect to another wireless access point to gain network or internet access. The
Client configuration page provides the ability to turn on or off the wireless radio, find nearby access points and configure a
connection to an access point.
The NTC-40WV may run both Access Point and Client simultaneously, however, since they share the wireless channel, both client
and access point must use the same channel.
