Installation Note
The AccessPoint as well as the ADSL Router have routing capabilities. Therefore it is suggested to operate the
AccessPoint only as a Wireless Bridge. Connecting the ADSL Router to one of the LAN ports will put the AccessPoint
into the bridging mode. The network management will therefore be handled by the ADSL Router.
ADSL Router:
- DHCP Server
- managing the PPPoE session
AP-600RP-USB:
- handling the wireless LAN (WLAN) access
