Access Point Mode

In the Access Point mode, the DAP-1350 acts as a central connection point for any computer (client) that has a 802.11n

or backward-compatible 802.11b/g wireless network interface and is within range of the AP. Clients must use the same

SSID (wireless network name) and channel as the AP in order to connect. If wireless security is enabled on the AP,

the client will need to enter a password to connect to the AP. In Access Point mode, multiple clients can connect to

the AP at the same time.

Wireless Client Mode

In the Wireless Client mode, the DAP-1350 acts as a wireless network adapter for your Ethernet-enabled device (such

as a game console or a laptop). Connect your Ethernet-enabled device to the AP using an Ethernet cable. The AP

Client mode can support one wired client.

Example:

Connect a gaming console using an Ethernet cable to the DAP-1350. The unit is set to Wireless Client mode

which will wirelessly connect to a wireless router on your network.
