2 Overview
2.1 Product Introduction
Thank you for choosing the SMCWEB-N2 Wireless N Universal Repeater.
SMCWEB-N2, a pocket router, is case-shaped, easy to carry, and easy to install.
Its wireless transmission rate is up to 300 Mbps. It is a high-performance and
IEEE802.11b/g/n-compatible network access device that can provide reliable and
convenient network access service for individual users and SOHO (Small Office,
Home Office). It features Web-based GUI, allowing users to easily modify settings
to connect the device to ISP (Internet Service Provider) and conveniently perform

In addition, SMCWEB-N2 has a three-way switch on the side panel that enables
users to change the device’s working mode among AP, Repeater, and Client. In the
AP mode, the device functions as a wireless router to achieve wireless connection
for the wired LAN. In the Repeater mode, the device provides the URM (Universal
Repeater Mode) function for users to expand wireless coverage of the existing AP
in a quick and easy way. In the Client mode, the device functions as a wireless
network adapter but it can provide a better transmission and connection
