Router Mode; Wireless Settings - Dell 2350 User Manual

Router Mode

The Dell Wireless 2350 has two operating modes: Gateway mode and Access Point mode.
Router Mode
Gateway mode allows your router to create a wireless network to access the broadband router.
Wired and wireless network devices share the same Internet connection through the Internet
port in the Gateway mode. However, some ISPs may request you to do the additional setup,
such as PPPoE, before using your router to access the Internet.
Access Point (AP) mode allows your router to act as a bridge between wireless devices and
Ethernet devices in the existing network. All wired and wireless devices are located in the
same class C subnet. Internet port is useless here. Thus, Access Point mode is here to help
you set up a single isolated network.
NOTE: If the device is put in AP mode, the Internet Connection Settings will not be
available.
The Gateway mode is the default setting in Wireless 2350.
