Choosing your device mode
Access Point (AP) Mode
By default, your access point functions in Access Point mode, creating a wireless
network to allow wireless client devices to connect and access your network resources
and access the Internet.
The diagram below shows your access point connected to one of your router LAN ports
and functioning in Access Point mode allowing wireless clients (ex. laptops, game
consoles, DVRs, Smart TVs, and mobile devices, etc.) to wirelessly connect to your
access point to establish network and Internet connectivity.
Note: The TEW-815DAP has dual band wireless capability allowing the access point to
broadcast a wireless network name on two separate bands, 2.4GHz and 5GHz. Wireless
clients can connect to your access on either band depending on the wireless band
supported by your wireless client. The 2.4GHz band is more commonly used and
supported for general applications such as Internet access and web browsing. The 5GHz
band is less commonly used and supported which can be more useful for higher or stable
bandwidth application requirements such as media streaming as this band may be less
likely affected by neighboring wireless networks operating on the 5GHz band.
