Also known as the base station, it links your AV receiver (wireless client) with a PC or network. Access points fall into two categories: the bridge type that only performs data relay in a local area network, or the router type that has a built-in router functionality.

To achieve a wireless network connection, it is necessary to perform the wireless LAN setup. The setup can be done either automatically or manually. You use your AV receiver as a wireless client (wireless terminal) and connect it to a PC or to the Internet.
