WiPG/WiCS Device Installation
3.3 Network Connection Mode (Option B)
Ethernet connected, own Wi-Fi signal on
wePresent can be connected to a network via the Ethernet/LAN port located in the back of the
wePresent. In network connection mode Option B, the wePresent will continue to broadcast a Wi-
Fi signal which acts as a wireless access point (WAP).
The gatekeeper feature can be used to restrict WAP connectivity allowing the WAP to act as an
additional network access point, or as an alternative (restricted) access point for guests.
This scenario allows guest users to connect to the wePresent’s in-room Wi-Fi signal, while internal
users connect over the corporate (wireless) infrastructure.
Recommended Enviroment
Office or school with many access points currently
installed. Network connection mode Option B is a good
option in environments where more than 10 WiPG/WiCS
units are closely deployed. Also ideal for scenarios where
no corporate Wi-Fi AP exists or the corporate Wi-Fi is not
open to guest users.

NOTE:
If wePresent is broadcasting its own Wi-Fi signal, the Gatekeeper security feature allows to
customize network connectivity over wePresent’s Wi-Fi signal. You can restrict network
access – allow all / block all / internet only – according to network’s security level.
