I have version 4.  firmware

I set it up in hotspot mode because I needed the ethernet wired to a device that has to transmit data over the internet.

I use my phone hotspot as the wifi that the wr802n connects to.   I can connect my computers to that wirelessly or wired.

It works fine.  If I am on a public wifi I use the phone hotspot to connect whenever I have to enter passwords etc.  Then I switch

back to the public wifi.  I don't have any problems with the phone hotspot.

Tech support told me I should use client mode.  I haven't tried that yet.  What will client mode do for me?

Tech support gave me a link to a new firmware upgrade.   What does the new firmware do better than ver 4.

Unless I know what its going to do different my view is "if it aint broke don't fix it"
