Disable Wireless

To deny access to the AP+4 network by

LAN Interface

wireless devices, select this check box. When

 

you disable the wireless LAN, the WLAN LED

 

on the front panel stops flashing, indicating that

 

the AP+4 is no longer broadcasting its SSID.

Band

Select:

 

2.4 GHz B if you have a network of 802.11b

 

devices

 

2.4 GHz G if you have a network of 802.11g

 

devices

 

2.4 GHz B+G if your network includes both

 

802.11b and 802.11g devices

Mode

Select a wireless operating mode:

 

AP. In this mode the AP+4 handles local

 

network traffic wirelessly and through its four

 

LAN ports, and communicates via its WAN port

 

to an ADSL modem, cable modem, or other

 

Internet-connected device.

 

Client. In this mode the AP+4 connects via its

 

LAN ports to up to four game consoles or

 

computers, and links them wirelessly to a

 

Zoom X6 or other wireless router.

 

WDS. In this mode the AP+4 acts as a

 

Repeater in WDS (Wireless Distribution

 

System) mode.

 

Note: The AP+4 can act as a Repeater in

 

either Universal Repeater mode (see below) or

 

WDS mode. Most users who want to configure

 

the AP+4 as a repeater should choose

 

Universal Repeater mode, because it is easier

 

to set up than a WDS network and it provides

 

better performance. (See Error! Reference

 

source not found.).

 

AP+WDS. In this mode the AP+4 acts as both

 

an Access Point and a Repeater in WDS

 

mode.

 

 

Network Type

(Client mode only) Select Infrastructure or Ad

 

Hoc.

SSID

Enter the AP+4’s SSID (network name). All

 

wireless devices should use the same SSID.
