Configuring Repeater Mode - NETGEAR ProSafe WG102-500 Reference Manual

• A computer on any LAN segment should be able to connect to the Internet or share
files and printers with any other PCs or servers connected to any of the three LAN
segments.
Note: You can extend this multi-point bridging configuration by adding
additional wireless access points that are configured in point-to-point
mode for each additional LAN segment. Furthermore, you can
extend the range of the wireless network with NETGEAR wireless
antenna accessories.

Configuring Repeater Mode

Select this option to enable the wireless access point to operate as a repeater only without
communication with other wireless clients. All traffic is sent to the remote or "downstream"
wireless access point. Up to four profiles can be configured.
The following figure shows an example of a repeater mode configuration.
