What is a Wireless Bridge?
A wireless bridge is actually a "mode" in which your Wireless Router
can directly connect to a secondary Wireless Access Point. Note
that you can only bridge your Wireless G Router (model F5D7230-4,
F5D7235-4, F5D7231-4P, F5D7231-4) to a Belkin Wireless G Range
Extender/Access Point (model F5D7130). Bridging with access points
of other manufacturers is not supported at this time. You can use the
bridge mode to extend the range of your wireless network, or add
an extension of your network in another area of your office or home
without running cables.
Range Extension
Range extension will extend the wireless coverage area in your home
or office. The example on the next page illustrates use of bridging to
extend the range of your wireless network. In this example, the Router
is set up to connect to an Access Point located in another area.
Laptops can roam, or move between the two wireless coverage areas.
*Wireless Range Extension and bridging will not work while in 125
HSM mode.
