ETWORK
The Wireless-N Access Point/Repeater is designed as an access point that
extends an existing wired network to support wireless users. It also
supports use as a wireless repeater/bridge that can extend the range of the
network or connect to remote LANs.
This chapter explains some of the basic features of the Wireless-N Access
Point/Repeater and shows some network topology examples in which the
device is implemented.
The Wireless-N Access Point/Repeater can provide an access point service
for an existing wired LAN, creating a wireless extension to the local
network.
A Wi-Fi wireless network is defined by its Service Set Identifier (SSID) or
network name. Wireless clients that want to connect to a network must set
their SSID to the same SSID of the network service.
