Operation Modes and Connection Examples Access Point and Access Point WDS Mode The Access Point Mode is the default mode of the device. It enables the bridging of wireless clients to wired network infrastructure and enables transparent access and communication with each other. The illustration below shows a typical resources sharing application example using this device. The wireless users are able to access the file server connected to the switch, through the access point in Access Point

Station Mode In Station mode the device acts as a wireless client. When connected to an access point, it creates a network link between the Ethernet network connected at this client device, and the wireless Ethernet network connected at the access point. In this example the workgroup PCs on the ethernet network connected to the Station device can access the printer across the wireless connection to the access point where the printer is connected.

Station WDS Mode Station WDS mode is similar to Station mode. The difference is Station WDS must connect to access point configured to Access Point WDS (or RootAP) mode. Station WDS is mainly use for point-to–point connection between 2 buildings or locations as far as several kilometer away. Point-to-Point Point-to-MultiPoint An access point setup as Access Point WDS An access point setup as Access Point WDS (or RootAP) and other as Station WDS (or RootAP) and several other device

Router Mode In Router Mode, the device also operates as a router. Either the wireless or Ethernet can be setup as WAN connection to a broadband modem. Wireless as WAN is known as Station + Router mode (or Wireless Routing Client mode) and Ethernet as WAN is known as AP + Router mode (or Gateway mode). Device supports several types of broadband connections Static IP, Dynamic IP and PPPoE. For setup details refer to the respective section. The illustration below shows the Ethernet port

Repeater WDS Mode Repeater WDS Mode to mainly to extend the wireless range and coverage of the wireless network allowing access and communications over places generally difficult for wireless clients to connect to the network. In Repeater mode, the access point acts as a relay for network signals on the network by regenerating the signals it receives, and retransmitting them to main network infrastructure. Detailed information on the Repeater mode is available in the Repeater Setup s

Antenna Alignment The physical environment of the antenna must be examined when aligning the antenna. Obstructions, available mounting locations, and other factors must be considered. Many objects such as forests, buildings, and hills, can obstruct the antenna, reducing the signal strength. The antenna can be installed at a height above such obstructions, and aligned so that antennas are directed at each other by taking into account the horizontal angle and the vertical angle of the an

Installation Direction The directional antenna radiates the signal towards the front of the unit. The unit should be installed in a position whereby the front of the unit faces the direction you wish to send the signal to. Therefore the direction you wish to send the signal to has to be considered before going on to the next step of starting to set up the access point.
