1.2.2  Access Point Mode 
You can also set the AG-120 to access point mode. In access point mode, your AG-120 
functions as an access point. This allows you to set up your wireless networks without using a 
dedicated AP. The following figure shows a network example.
Figure 3   Application: Access Point Mode 
In the example, the AG-120 is installed on computer A and set to operate in access point 
mode. Computer A provides an Internet connection to the wireless LAN, so wireless stations 
B and C can access the Internet.
Note: With WZC, you cannot use the AG-120 as an access point.
1.2.3  Changing AG-120 Mode  
To change between the modes, select either Station Mode or AP Mode in any ZyXEL utility 
screens.
