Introduction

SMC's EZ Connect Wireless Access Point/Bridge (SMC2682W) is an
11 Mbps wireless bridge that allows two or more remote Ethernet LANs
to be merged into a single virtual LAN. Workstations on each of the
remote LANs may communicate with each other as though they were on
the same physical LAN.
The Wireless Access Point/Bridge can also function as an access point and
provide transparent, wireless data communications between the wired
LAN (and/or within the wireless network) and fixed, portable, or mobile
devices equipped with a wireless adapter employing the same radio
modulation.
This solution offers fast, reliable wireless connectivity with considerable
cost savings over wired LANs (which include long-term maintenance
overhead for cabling).
