Table 4.1. Description of Unit Type
Item Description
Access Point
The device serves as a base station for client devices to connect to under the access point.
Virtual AP settings can be configured for VAP1 to VAP4.
Station
The device serves as a client device (slave station) to connect to a station access point.
Only VAP1 settings are used.
Repeater
The device operates simultaneously as a repeater access point and a station and it serves as a
repeater. VAP1 settings are the access point settings. VAP2 settings are the station
settings.
On wireless networks that use repeaters, the channel and wireless networking specification
must be the same for all devices. On networks that use two or more repeaters, configure the
"Preferred AP" and "Connections to Non-Preferred APs" functions in the advanced settings
and take care to specify the connection destination clearly so the repeaters do not loop. We
also recommend that you set "Wireless Connection Mode" to "Advanced Infrastructure".
Repeater Independent
This setting is available when the unit type is "Repeater". When "Disable" repeater independent, behavior
of the repeater access point (VAP1) and the repeater station (VAP2) are linked. Repeater station (VAP2)
is not connected to an access point, repeater access point (VAP1) will not work. In addition, the channel
configuration is ignored, and operate on the same channel as the access point to which the repeater station
(VAP2) is connected.
