WAVLINK AC600 podržava više načina rada kako bi odgovarao različitim mrežnim zahtjevima.

Image: Diagram showing the three main operating modes: AP/Router Mode, Repeater Mode, and AP+Repeater Mode.

6.1 Način rada pristupne tačke/rutera

In this mode, the device acts as a primary router or an access point, creating a new wireless network.

• Način usmjerivača: Connects to a modem via the WAN/LAN port and provides internet access to connected devices, acting as a DHCP server.
• Način rada pristupne tačke (AP): Connects to an existing wired router via the WAN/LAN port and extends the wired network wirelessly. It does not perform NAT or DHCP.

6.2 Režim ponavljanja

The device wirelessly connects to an existing WiFi network and re-broadcasts it, extending its coverage. This mode is ideal for eliminating WiFi dead zones.

• Select the Repeater mode during setup.
• Scan for available WiFi networks and select the one you wish to extend.
• Unesite lozinku za odabranu mrežu.
• The extender will then broadcast the extended network, often with a suffix like '_EXT'.

6.3 WISP Mode (Wireless Internet Service Provider)

In WISP mode, the device acts as a client to an existing wireless network (e.g., a public hotspot) and shares that internet connection with local wired and wireless clients, functioning as a router.

• Select WISP mode during setup.
• Scan for the wireless network you want to connect to as a client.
• Configure the local network settings for your devices.
