The Wireless Ethernet Adapter Mode

Similarly to the Access Point Client mode, the access point used in this mode,
is able to communicate wirelessly with another access point to perform
transparent bridging between two networks.

However here, the Wireless Ethernet Adapter connects a single wired
workstation only. No client software or drivers are required while using this
mode.


1.3.6

The Wireless Bridge Link Mode

The Wireless Bridge Link mode allows point-to-point communication
between different buildings. It enables you to bridge wireless clients that are
kilometres apart ( eg. within 100 metres between two buildings ) while
unifying the networks. In this scenario, you may configure two of the access
point units to perform transparent bridging between two buildings.
