TL-WA500G 54M Wireless Access Point User Guide

)

Note:

AP provides five operational modes: Access Point, Client, Repeater, Bridge (point to point), Bridge

(point to Multi-point).

¾ Access Point - The Access Point mode allows wireless stations including AP clients to

access.

• Enable SSID Broadcast - Checking the Enable SSID Broadcast box will enable

Wireless Access Point to broadcast its name (SSID).

¾ Client - The Client mode allows one or more remote LANs to connect a central LAN, and

thus creating an extended virtual LAN. In this way, any station of the Remote LAN can

successfully communicate with any station of the central LAN, as if all of them belong to the

same physical LAN. Wireless Stations can’t associate with AP Clients.

• Enable WDS - Checking the Enable WDS (Wireless Distribution System) box will

forward all traffic from wired networks in the format of WDS frames consist of four

address fields. The AP client can connect to AP with WDS enabled or disabled. If WDS is

disabled, three address frames are used. If your AP supports WDS well, please select

the option.

• SSID - Enter the SSID of AP that you want to access. If you select the radio button before

SSID, the AP client will connect to AP according to SSID.

• MAC of AP - Enter the MAC address of AP that you want to access. If you select the

radio button before MAC of AP, the AP client will connect to AP according to MAC

address.

¾ Repeater - The wireless Repeater mode allows the AP with its own BSS and with WDS

enabled to relay data to a root AP, to which it is associated. The wireless repeater relays

signal between its stations and the root AP for greater wireless range. Please input the MAC

address of root AP in the field of MAC of AP.

¾ Universal Repeater - The Universal Repeater mode allows APs without WDS function to be

communicated with.

Note:

If the available AP can’t support with WDS, you may select Client mode without WDS or Universal

Repeater mode to associate with the AP.
