By default, the NI WAP-3701/3711’s operation mode is set to AP/Bridge. If you want to change

The AP supports 2 operational modes: 

y  AP/Bridge 

This mode provides both Access Point and Static LAN-to-LAN Bridging functionality. The 
static LAN-to-LAN bridging function is supported through WDS (Wireless Distribution 
System). 

y  AP Client 

This mode is for Dynamic LAN-to-LAN Bridging. The AP Client automatically establishes 
bridge links with APs from any vendors. In either mode, the NI WAP-3701/3711 forwards 
packets between its Ethernet interface and wireless interface for wired hosts on the Ethernet 
side and wireless host(s) on the wireless side.
