Multiple APs wired together provide a network with a better
coverage area and performance - by using the same ESS_ID.
E.g. Within a company, each department accesses a public file
server through its own AP.

Extension of Wired Network

AP can connect to the wired network through WAN ports, or
connect to wireless clients through wireless ports.
E.g.: In a company, using APs to quickly setup a network for a
newly added department is an efficient way to extend the
existing wired network.
