1.7 ZyXEL G-220F Modes

You can set your ZyXEL G-220F to operate in either wireless station or access point (AP) modes.

In wireless station mode, your ZyXEL G-220F must connect to a peer wireless station or an AP to take part in your wireless network.

In access point mode, your ZyXEL G-220F functions as an access point. This allows you to set up your wireless network without using a dedicated AP device. Up to 16 wireless stations can associate to the ZyXEL G-220F to form a wireless network. Refer to Section 1.7.1 on page 23 and Chapter 4 on page 50 for more information.

Note: With WZC, you cannot use the ZyXEL G-220F as an access point.

1.7.1 Change ZyXEL G-220F Mode

To change between the modes, select either the Station Mode or AP Mode option in any ZyXEL Utility screens.
