Wireless Range Extension and Bridging

What is a Wireless Bridge?

A wireless bridge is actually an operation “mode” you can use to extend the range of your wireless network, or add an extension of your network in another area of your office or home without running cables.

Note: We can make no guarantees that this feature will interoperate with hardware from other wireless manufacturers.

Note: Please make sure to download the latest firmware version for the Router for

optimal performance at: http://web.belkin.com/support.
