Wireless Repeating Function
You can view or change wireless repeater settings for the modem router. From the main menu of
the browser interface, under Advanced, click Wireless Repeating Function to display the
Wireless Repeating Function screen.
The modem router supports two modes of the wireless repeating function, and allows you to
control wireless client association:
• Wireless Repeater. The modem router sends all traffic from its local wireless or wired
computers to a remote AP. To configure this mode, you must know the MAC address of the
remote parent AP.
• Wireless Base Station. The modem router acts as the parent AP, bridging traffic to and from
the child repeater AP, as well as handling wireless and wired local computers. To configure
this mode, you must know the MAC addresses of the child repeater AP.
• Disable Wireless Client Association. Usually this check box is cleared so that the modem
router is an access point for wireless computers.
If this check box is selected, the modem router communicates wirelessly only with other APs
whose MAC addresses are listed in this screen. The modem router still communicates with
wire-connected LAN devices.
Setting Up the Base Station
The wireless repeating function works only in hub and spoke mode. The units cannot be daisy
chained. You must know the wireless settings for both units. You must know the MAC address of
the remote unit. First, set up the base station, and then set up the repeater.
