On this screen you can change the Access Point's mode of
operation. In most cases, you can keep the default setting
- Access Point. You may wish to change the Access Point's
mode of operation if you want to use the Access Point as
a wireless repeater to extend the range of your wireless
network. You may also wish to change the Access Point's
mode of operation if you want to use the Access Point as
a wireless bridge; for example, you can use two Access
Points in Wireless Bridge mode to connect two wired
networks that are in two different buildings.
