September 2004 202-10042-01
Note: The WGX102 is designed for easy installation in access point mode, and can be used with
multiple XE102 Wall-Plugged Ethernet Bridges in this mode. However, if you choose to configure
the WGX102 in Router Mode, you can only use one XE102 and you must be sure of the correct IP
addresses during the configuration procedure.
WGX102 Wall-Plugged Range Extender Operation Modes
The WGX102 can be immediately used without configuration in Access Point Mode, or can
perform more functions in Router Mode. With Router Mode installation, the WGX102 functions
as the only router in the network.
Access Point Mode
In Access Point Mode, the WGX102 acts as an Access Point for your wireless devices, and
provides a means of communication between your wireless LAN and wall-plugged LAN. In this
configuration, the WGX102 wall plug connection becomes a LAN port and the DHCP server is
disabled. To use the WGX102 in Access Point Mode, you will need to have another device such as
a router with DHCP enabled in order to access the Internet.
