Intellinet 500500 User Manual

This Access Point supports Client, AP, Repeater and Bridge modes. “Client 

Mode” is used to let a network device with only wired Ethernet function to 

have wireless LAN communication capability. It provides both Ad Hoc and 

Infrastructure modes for the “Station Mode”. With “Station-Ad Hoc mode”, 

it can let your network device join a wireless LAN with peer-to-peer 

communication. With “Station-Infrastructure mode”, it can let your network 

device join a wireless LAN through an access point. “AP Mode” provides 

pure access point function. The simplest way to build up a wireless LAN is 

to use “AP Mode”. If you want an access point to bridge wired Ethernet 

network and provide connection service for other wireless station at the 

same time, you have to set the access point to “Repeater mode”. Simply 

speaking, “Repeater mode” function is the combination of “AP mode” and 

“PMP mode”. “AP Bridge Mode” provides the function to bridge more than 

2 wired Ethernet networks together by wireless LAN. You can use two 

access points with “P2P mode” to bridge two wired Ethernet networks 

together. If you want to bridge more than two wired Ethernet networks 

together, you have to use enough access points with “PMP mode”. An 

access point with “P2P mode” or “PMP mode” can only be used to bridge 

wired Ethernet networks together. It can’t accept connection from other 

wireless station at the same time.
