APPENDIX E — WIFI CONCURRENT CONFIGURATION AS ACCESS POINT AND CLIENT
As of firmware version 1.1.7, the WiFi interface of the Fusion router can now be enabled in Access Point mode and
Client mode at the same time. (In previous firmware versions, the two modes were mutually exclusive and this was not
allowed.)

WIFI CONCURRENT MODE

The most important limitation you must be aware of when working with the Fusion router in concurrent WiFi Access
Point mode and Client mode is that the WiFi component of the Fusion has only one radio.
Figure 86 In Concurrent WiFi mode (both Client and Access Point active), the Fusion WiFi Client can only connect to external access points using
the same channel that the internal Access Point is configured to use.
In concurrent mode, the channel used by the WiFi access point of the Fusion router must be the same as the channel
used by the external WiFi access points. The WiFi client automatically scans for access points every 60 seconds instead
of every 5 seconds to reduce interference with the Fusion's WiFi access point.
