6.4 AP Client Setup
If AW5500 is being added to a wireless network where Access Points (AP1) from other
vendors already existed, AW5500 could be set to AP Client mode to connect to that AP1 and
bridge the Ethernet clients to AP1. This setup is similar to Scenario #2, except that WDS is not
used. This is because WDS from different vendors might not be compatible.

For more information on how to configure your AW5500 for this topology, please refer to AP
Client Mode.
Note: wireless coverage is dependent on the environment.
