Overview
This chapter discusses how to configure settings while your NBG4604 is set to
AP
Mode
. Many screens that are available in
Router Mode
are not available in
AP
Mode
.
Note: See
Chapter 5 on page 57
for an example of setting up a wireless network 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.
