FIGURE 6 Initial Setup Wizard - Network Topology screen for Typical Setup Wizard
• Router Mode - In Router Mode, the access point routes traffic between the local network
(LAN) and the Internet or external network (WAN). Router mode is recommended in a
deployment supported by just a single access point.
• Bridge Mode - In Bridge Mode, the access point depends on an external router for routing
LAN and WAN traffic. Routing is generally used on one device, whereas bridging is typically
used in a larger density network. Select Bridge Mode when deploying this access point
with numerous peer access points supporting clients on both the 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz
radio bands.
