Universal Repeater Mode
5.1 Overview
In universal repeater mode, your WAP3205 v2 can act as an access point and wireless client at the
same time. The WAP3205 v2 can connect to an existing network through another access point and
also lets wireless clients connect to the network through it. This helps you expand wireless
coverage when you have an access point or wireless router already in your network.
In the example below, the WAP3205 v2 ( A ) is configured as a universal repeater. It has three
clients that want to connect to the Internet. The WAP3205 v2 wirelessly connects to the available
access point (
B ).

After the WAP3205 v2 and the access point connect, the WAP3205 v2 acquires its IP address from
the access point. The clients of the WAP3205 v2 can now surf the Internet.
