Repeater Mode
6.1 Overview
In repeater mode, your WX3310 can connect to an existing wired 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 WX3310 ( A ) is configured as a repeater. It has three clients that want to
connect to the Internet. The WX3310 wirelessly connects to the available access point ( B ).

After the WX3310 and the access point connect, the WX3310 acquires its IP address from the access
point. The clients of the WX3310 can now surf the Internet.
