WAP3205 User’s Guide

CHAPTER 4

Client Mode

4.1 Overview

Your WAP3205 can act as a wireless client. In wireless client mode, it can connect

to an existing network via an access point. Use this mode if you already have an

access point or wireless router in your network.

In the example below, one WAP3205 (A) is configured as a wireless client and

another is used as an access point (B). The WAP3205 has two clients that need to

connect to the Internet. The WAP3205 wirelessly connects to the available access

point (B).

Figure 8 Wireless Client Mode

After the WAP3205 and the access point connect, the WAP3205 acquires its WAN

IP address from the access point. The clients of the WAP3205 can now surf the

Internet.

4.2 What You Can Do

•Use the Status screen (Section 4.5 on page 35) to view read-only information

about your WAP3205.

•Use the LAN screen (Chapter 11 on page 117) to set the IP address for your

WAP3205.

•Use the Wireless LAN screen (Section 4.6 on page 37) to associate your

WAP3205 (acting as a wireless client) with an existing access point.
