Installing Multiple AG2000s Network Scenario
Figure 1.2 displays a typical network scenario that involves multiple AG2000s and PCs. This type of
network scenario provides a solution to larger buildings or homes where a single AG2000 wireless
coverage range is inadequate. The Second Floor AG2000 connects to a DSL or Cable modem and acts
as a router. The First Floor AG2000 connects to the Second Floor AG2000 and acts as a bridge, extend-
ing the wireless coverage area.
