24.10 System Operation Mode Overview
The Sys OP Mode (System Operation Mode) function lets you configure your NBG5615 as a router
or access point. You can choose between Router Mode, and Access Point Mode depending on
your network topology and the features you require from your device.
The following describes the device modes available in your NBG5615.
Router
A router connects your local network with another network, such as the Internet. The router has
two IP addresses, the LAN IP address and the WAN IP address.

Access Point
An access point enabled all ethernet ports to be bridged together and be in the same subnet. To
connect to the Internet, another device, such as a router, is required.
