3. Operating Modes 3.1 Introduction to Operatin g Modes 3.1.1 Traveler’s AP Mode The Access Point (AP) mode is by defa u lt the out-of-box operational mode. When the user resets the system to the de fault manufacturing settings, the operational mode also reverts to AP mode.
3.1.2 Repeater Mode Repeater mode extends the range of a wireless net work. Repeater nodes re-transmit the signal of an AP or wireless router to effectively extend the range of that AP o r wire less router . Wirele ss clients ca n asso ciate w ith the re peate r.
3.1.3 Point-to-Point (P2P) Mode Two SMCWTK-G devices, each in Point-to-Point (P2P) mode, can establish a wireless connection between two wired networks, as shown in Figure3 . The two SMCWTK-G devices operating in P2P mode do not allow client associations.
3.1.4 Point-to-Multipoint (PMP) Mode A SMCWTK-G de vice operat ing in Poin t-to-Mu ltipoint (PMP) mo de can wireless ly connect t wo or more wired networks, as shown in Figure4 . The root SMCWTK-G device (LAN 1) operat es in PMP mod e, and the other SM CWTK-G devices (LAN 2, LAN 3) must ope rate in P2P mode.
3.1.5 Client Mode When set to Client mode, th e SMCWTK-G device will associate to an AP w ithin its range in Infrastructure mode, as show n in Figure 5 or join w ith another SMCW TK-G de vic e in C lie nt mo de in an A d-Hoc net work , as shown in Figure 6 .
4. Wireless Security Support The SMCWTK-G will support WEP encryption and WPA/PSK e ncryption as shown in Table1 . Table 1: Wireless Security Mode WEP WPA/PSK Comments Access Point Yes Yes In AP mode, the SMCWTK-G acts like a regular AP. Supports WE P and WPA/PSK .
5. Mode Selection The first step in using the SMCWTK-G is selecting the operating mode. The default operating mode is the AP mode . To vi ew the d evi ce’s web pag e, go to 192. 168. 2.2 5 (def aul t IP ad dres s of t he dev ice) in your web browser.
