1.2.2 Access Point Mode

You can also set the AG-220 to access point mode. This allows you to set up your wireless networks without using a dedicated AP. The following figure shows a network example.

Figure 3 Application: Access Point Mode

In the example, the AG-220 is installed on computer A and set to operate in access point mode. Computer A provides an Internet connection to the wireless LAN, so wireless stations B and C can access the Internet.

1.2.3 Changing AG-220 Mode

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

Note: This feature is not available in the Windows Vista utility. The Windows Vista utility only operates in Station Mode.
