Device Mode
Select the desired device mode for the router:
Router - In this mode, this device can provide shared Internet Access
to all your LAN users. Also, by default, it acts a DHCP Server,
providing an IP address and related information to all Wireless and
LAN users.
Bridge - The device links your Wireless Stations to your wired LAN.
The Wireless stations and devices on the wired LAN are then on the
same network, and can communicate with each other without regard
for whether they are connected to the network via a Wireless or wired
connection.
After changing the mode, this device will restart, which will take a few
seconds. The menu will also change, depending on the mode you are in.
