Overview

This chapter discusses how to configure settings while your NBG4604 is set to

AP

Mode

. Many screens that are available in

AP mode.

Use your NBG4604 as an AP if you already have a router or gateway on your

network. In this mode your device bridges a wired network (LAN) and wireless

LAN (WLAN) in the same subnet. See the figure below for an example.
