Repeater / Repeater Bridge
- Repeater Bridge - A wireless repeater with DHCP & NAT disabled, clients on same subnet as host AP.
- Universal Wireless Repeater - Uses another 3rd party program called AutoAP...if you wish to manually configure...use Repeater mode below.
- Repeater - A wireless repeater with DHCP & NAT enabled, clients on different subnet from host AP.
Client / Client Bridge
- Wireless Bridge - Join two wired networks by two Wireless routers building a bridge.
- Client Bridged - (simplified instructions for a wireless bridge)
- Client Mode - Join two wired networks by two Wireless routers (unbridged).
Access Point / Switch
- Wireless Access Point - Extend Wi-Fi & LAN (Requires physical ethernet connection between routers)
- Switch - Similar config as WAP, but radio disabled (accepts only wired connections)
