Configuration Guide Fast Internet Access Work Modes The device works in AP mode. The device performs L2 forwarding and does not support the DHCP function. In AP mode, the device often networks with devices supporting the routing function. IP addresses of downlink wireless clients of the device are assigned and managed by its uplink device (supporting the DHCP function) in a unified manner, and the device only transparently transmits data.
