Client Universal Repeater mode network Configuration
When the APO1200/APO1215 configured as an Access Point and Client Station simultaneously, the Wireless
General and Advanced Setup also used simultaneously. But the Security Type can be different. In the other
word, the channel or other settings will be the same between APO1200/APO1215 to Main Base Station and
wireless client to APO1200/APO1215, but security type can be different.
