In the HotSpot Mode, the DIR-505 acts as a wireless network adapter for your Ethernet-enabled device (such as a Laptop or an
Internet Tablet). If you are going to connect an Ethernet-enabled devices to your DIR-505, move the switch to "Wi-Fi HotSpot
Mode". Then, plug the DIR-505 into a wall outlet and verify that the power LED is lit. Wi-Fi Hot Spot Mode has NAT which allows
an IP network to maintain a public IP address separately from your private IP address. Additionally, it enhances private network
security by limiting the access of external computers in the private IP network space.
