WISP Client Router and WISP Repeater
In WISP Router Client mode, the DAP-1160 wirelessly connects to a WISP (Wireless Internet Service Provider) AP. In this mode, the DAP-
1160 also acts as a router for wired clients on your LAN and provides NAT (Network Address Translation) and a DHCP server to generate
IP addresses for wired clients. NAT and the DHCP server allow many computers to share the same wireless Internet connection.
WISP Repeater wireless mode acts the same as WISP Client Router wireless mode, with the addition of a wireless signal for any wireless
clients on the LAN.
