Before starting to configure this Access Point, you may realize the used scenario under varied operating modes. The EnStation5-ACv2/EnStationACv2/ENS500-ACv2/ENS500EXT-ACv2 is built in EnGenius EnJet solution, AP can transmit data more efficiently, avoid collisions,and reduce latency and packet losses. When EnJet enable, it can be configured as an: Access Point, Client Bridge or WDS (AP & Station) or Access Point, Client Bridge or WDS (AP, Station & Bridge) when EnJet disable.
Client Bridge Mode The AP/CPE essentially acts as a wireless adapter that connects to an access point to allow a system of wireless access to the network in the Client Bridge mode. Since the computers are on the same subnet, the AP/CPE can broadcast to reach all end-devices. If you use the client bridge mode in the AP/CPE, you can use the AP Detection feature to scan for Access Points within range.
WDS AP Mode The AP/CPE also supports WDS AP mode. This operating mode allows wireless connections to the AP/CPE 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.
WDS Bridge Mode In WDS Bridge Mode, the AP/CPE can wirelessly connect different LANs by configuring the MAC address and security settings of each AP/CPE 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 AP/CPE to wirelessly connect two wired LANs, as shown in the following diagram. WDS Bridge Mode can establish up to four WDS links, creating a star-like network. Note: WDS Bridge Mode does not act as an Access Point.
WDS Station Mode Station mode expands the WDS by receiving a wireless signal/service and sharing it through the Ethernet port.
