Wireless-G Access Point

Wireless Bridge. This mode connects two physically separated wired networks using two access points (use additional access points to connect more wired networks). This feature only works with another Wireless-G Access Point (model number: WAP54G).

Figure 7-7: Wireless Bridge Diagram

To configure a Wireless Bridge environment, select Wireless Bridge, and enter the MAC addresses of the wireless bridges/access points in the Remote Wireless Bridge’s LAN MAC Addresses fields. You will also need to set the remote wireless bridges/access points to Wireless Bridge mode.

Change these settings as described here and click Save Settings to apply your changes, or click Cancel Changes to cancel your changes. Click Help for more information.

IMPORTANT: In Wireless Bridge mode, the Access Point can ONLY be accessed by another access point in Wireless Bridge mode. In order for your other wireless devices to access the Access Point, you must reset it to Access Point mode. The two modes are mutually exclusive.
