4 Building a Wireless Network

The ECB350 has the ability to operate in various operating modes. The ECB350 is the ideal device in which you can build your WLAN. This chapter describes how to build a WLAN around your ECB350 using the operating modes of the ECB350.

4.1 Client Bridge Mode

In Client Bridge Mode, the ECB350 acts as a wireless dongle that connects to an Access Point to allow a system wireless access to the network. This mode requires you to connect the Ethernet port on your PC to the ECB350 LAN port.

If you use the client bridge operating mode, use the ECB350 Site Survey feature to scan for Access Points within range. When you find an Access Point, configure the ECB350 to use the same SSID and Security Password as the Access Point to associate with it.
