The Mini Broadband Router has two basic operating modes that can be set
through the web-based management interface. For information on setting
the mode suitable for your network environment, see
“Operation Mode” on
page 50
.
◆
Router Mode — A gateway mode that connects a wired LAN and
wireless clients to an Internet access device, such as a cable or DSL
modem. This is the factory set default mode.
◆
Bridge Mode — An access point mode that extends a wired LAN to
wireless clients.
In addition to these basic operating modes, the wireless interface supports
Wireless Distribution System (WDS) links to other Mini Broadband Routers,
and a wireless AP Client Mode for a link to another wireless network. These
advanced configurations are not described in this section, see
“Network
Planning” on page 25
for more information.
In a basic configuration, how the Mini Broadband Router is connected
depends on the operating mode. The sections in this chapter describe
connections for basic Router Mode and Bridge Mode operation.
