Bridge Mode - Amped Wireless ATHENA-R2 User Manual

Network Settings: Bridge Mode
A Network Bridge creates a connection between two separate
networks wirelessly. The Bridge connects to a Wi-Fi network (either
2.4 or 5GHz network) of the existing network and provides wired
connections to expand the network further. All devices connected
to the Bridge are on the same subnet and local network as the
existing network. Note: The Network Bridge does not create
another Wi-Fi network to connect to, it only provides wired
connections to expand a network.
To enable Bridge mode, click the checkbox titled Enable Bridge
Mode. Next select a Network (SSID) to connect to wirelessly. If the
network has a security key, enter it in the Security field.
Configure the network settings for the network that you are
connecting to. Most networks will have a DHCP server that will automatically assign an IP address for you.
However in the case that the network you are connecting to does not, you can enter the IP settings manually.
The IP must be in the same subnet as the network you are connecting to in order for Bridge mode to operate
successfully.
