6.6 Bridge Mode Overview
Use your Multy Device as a bridge if you already have a router or gateway on your network. In this mode
your Multy Device bridges a wired network (LAN) and wireless LAN (WLAN) in the same subnet. See the
figure below for an example.
Many screens that are available in Standard Mode are not available in Bridge Mode, such as port
forwarding and firewall. See Section 5.3 on page 140 for more information.
6.7 What You Can Do
• Set up a network with the Multy Device as a bridge (Section 6.8 on page 147).
• Use the Status screen to view read-only information about your Multy Device (Section 6.9 on page
149).
