In Client Mode, the WG602v4 will operate as a Client bridge only and send traffic to the remote AP (Infrastructure Mode) or peer device (Ad-Hoc mode):
- Infrastructures - In this mode, the WG602v4 operates as a wireless client bridge that can only connect and send traffic to an access point.
- Ad-Hoc - In this mode, the WG602v4 communicates on a peer-to-peer basis. There is no structure of fixed points in the network.
To set up this type of point-to-point configuration:
- Configure AP1 in Point-to-Point mode with the MAC address of AP2 and deploy it on LAN Segment 1. If you check the Enable Wireless Client Association checkbox, wireless clients will also be able to use AP1. If the Enable Wireless Client Association checkbox is not selected, only computers on Ethernet LAN segment 1 will be able to use AP1 to communicate with AP2.
- Configure AP2 in Point-to-Point mode with the MAC address of AP1 and deploy it on LAN Segment 2. Use the same security and channel settings as AP1. If you check the Enable Wireless Client Association checkbox, wireless clients will also be able to use AP2. If the Enable Wireless Client Association checkbox is not selected, only computers on Ethernet LAN segment 2 will be able to use AP2 to communicate with AP1.
- Verify connectivity across the network.
If you enabled wireless client association on both APs, a computer on either AP should be able to connect to the Internet or share files and printers of any other PCs or servers connected to the network.
