The EWS330AP has the ability to operate in various modes. This chapter describes the operating modes of above three models. Access Point Mode In Access Point Mode, the EWS330AP behaves like a central connection for stations or clients that support IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n networks. The stations and clients must be configured to use the same SSID (Service Set Identifier) and security password to associate with the EWS330AP. The EWS330AP supports up to eight (8) SSIDs per band (16 total) at the same time for secure access. 2.4 GHz 5 GHz Client...
AP Mesh Mode Under the AP Mesh mode, the EWS330AP can be used as the central connection hub for station or clients that support IEEE 802.11 b/g/n network. Under this mode, the EWS330AP can be configured with the same Mesh SSID and security password in order to associate with other EWS330AP, as well as connect with clients under the same SSID and encryption signatures. For example, you would use one band to connect Access Points in range with Mesh mode and the other band to broadcast traffic on the network. WS330AP...
