Using the Access Point Mode
Note: This advanced feature should be employed by advanced users only.
The Router can be configured to work as a wireless network access point.
Using this mode will defeat the NAT IP sharing feature and DHCP server.
In Access Point (AP) mode, the Router will need to be configured with an
IP address that is in the same subnet as the rest of the network that you
will bridge to. The default IP address is 192.168.2.254 and subnet mask is
255.255.255.0. These can be customized for your need.
1. Enable the AP mode my selecting “Enable” in the “Use as Access
Point only” page. When you select this option, you will be able to
change the IP settings.
2. Set your IP settings to match your network. Click “Apply Changes”.
3. Connect a cable from the “Modem” port on the Router to your
existing network.
5. For a home or small business user, select “WPA-PSK” under
“Network Authentication”.
6. Select “TKIP” or “AES” under “Data Encryption”. This setting will
have to be identical to the Router that you set up.
7. Type in your encryption key in the “Network key” box.
Important: Enter your pre-shared key. This can be from eight to 63
characters and can be letters, numbers, or symbols. This same key must
be used on all of the clients that you set up.
8. Click “OK” to apply settings.
