Description
This mode allows wireless clients to connect to access point and
exchange data with the devices connected to the wired network.
Mesh Root – VigorAP must connect to a gateway with an Ethernet
cable.
Mesh Node – VigorAP can connect to other mesh root via wireless
connection. A mesh network creates one set of links automatically
and calculates the most optimal wireless path through the wireless
network back to a wired mesh root.
VigorAP can act as a wireless repeater which will help you to extend
the networking wirelessly. The access point can act as Station and AP
at the same time. It can use Station function to connect to a Root AP
and use AP function to service all wireless clients within its coverage.
