Overview

You can use the AP+4 as a Router/Access Point, Universal Repeater, Ethernet Client or Wireless ISP.

As a Router/AP, the AP+4 handles local network traffic both wirelessly and through its four LAN (Local Area Network) ports, and communicates via its WAN (Wide Area Network) port to an ADSL modem, cable modem, or other Internet- connected device.

As a Repeater, the AP+4 is placed near the edge of a wireless network – for example, a Zoom X6 network – and wirelessly links up to 200 more devices to the network.

As an Ethernet Client, 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.

As a Wireless ISP, the AP+4 can connect up to four wired PCs or game consoles, give them Network Address Translation protection, and connect them wirelessly to an access point. If you select this mode, use the Wireless Basic Setup page to configure the AP+4 as a wireless client.

See Setting Up the AP+4 on page 8 to choose an operating mode.

This User Guide provides instructions for connecting and configuring your AP+4 and setting up wireless and wired local area networks. It includes details about security, firewalls, Virtual Private Networks and administrative tasks.
