Operation Modes
The RUT500 router supports various operation modes. It can be connected to the internet (WAN) via 3G, standard
Ethernet cable or via a wireless network. If you connect to the internet via an Ethernet cable of Wi-Fi, you may also
backup your connection with 3G for added stability. On every case except when you connect to the internet via Wi-Fi,
you can distribute your internet via an Ethernet cable (3 ports) and/or a wireless network. When you connect via Wi-Fi,
you cannot have Wi-Fi in your LAN.
In later sections it will be explained, bit by bit, how to configure your router to work in a desired mode.
