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 802.11g Router (model
F5D7230au4, F5D7231au4P, F5D7231au4) to a Belkin Wireless
802.11g Range Extender/Access Point (model F5D7130au). 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.
