5.4 | SMC2482W Operating Modes
The EZ Connect Turbo Wireless Bridge has 3 operating modes to
provide a flexible wireless solution for any situation. The
support modes are:
• Point-to-Point Bridge
• Point-to-Multi-Point Bridge
• Access Point
Below is an outline of each operating mode and a basic
configuration.
Point-to-Point Bridge
The operating mode is configured when you need to connect
two locations with a wireless connection. This operating mode
needs to be configured on both units. To configure a Point-to-
Point connection you need the MAC address of each SMC2482W
unit. To setup this connection, follow the steps below:
1. Log into the SMC2482W Windows Utility or Web-based Utility.
2. Set the operating mode to: Point-to-Point
3. Set the MAC Address of the SMC2482W that you are connecting
to in the MAC Address text input box. This is the MAC
address that is listed in the Status section of the SMC2482W
Web-based Utility.
4. Install the Wireless Bridge units in each location, and then
connect the LAN port on the Wireless Bridge to a port on the
wired network in that location.
Point-to-Multi-Point Bridge
The operating mode is configured when you need to connect
more than two locations with a wireless connection. This oper-
ating mode needs to be configured on each SMC2482W used.
To setup this connection, follow the steps below:
1. Log into the SMC2482W Windows Utility or Web-based Utility.
2. Set the operating mode to: Point-to-Multi-Point
3. Install the Wireless Bridge units in each location, and then
