1.2.3 Access Point Mode
You can also set the G-220 v3 to access point mode. In access point mode, your G-220 v3
functions as an access point. This allows you to set up your wireless networks without using a
dedicated AP. The following figure shows a network example.
Figure 3 Application: Access Point Mode
In the example, the G-220 v3 is installed on computer A and set to operate in access point
mode. Computer A provides an Internet connection to the wireless LAN, so wireless stations
B and C can access the Internet.
1.2.4 Changing G-220 v3 Mode
To change between the modes, select either Station Mode or AP Mode in any ZyXEL utility
screens.
