The ENH220EXT has the ability to operate in various modes. This chapter describes the operating modes of the ENH220EXT. Access Point Mode In Access Point Mode, ENH220EXT behaves likes a central connection for stations or clients that support IEEE 802.11b/g/n networks. The stations and clients must be configured to use the same SSID (Service Set Identifier) and security password to...
Client Bridge mode. Since the computers are on the same subnet, the ENH220EXT can broadcast to reach all end-devices. If you use the client bridge mode for the ENH220EXT, you can use the AP Detection feature to scan for Access Points within range. When you find an Access Point, configure the ENH220EXT to use the same SSID and Security Password as...
WDS AP Mode The ENH220EXT also supports WDS AP mode. This operating mode allows wireless connections to the ENH220EXT using WDS technology. In this mode, configure the MAC addresses in both Access Points to enlarge the wireless area by enabling WDS Link settings. WDS supports up to four (4) AP MAC addresses.
ENH220EXT device. Use this mode when two wired LANs located a small distance apart want to communicate with each other. The best solution is to use the ENH220EXT to wirelessly connect two wired LANs, as shown in the following diagram.
