Tags: #Access Point Mode

Hello,

I was wondering if the device serves as an access point for both the normal network and the guest network if I use it in AP-Mode by connecting it via Ethernet to the router. Is this the case, or is it only an access point for the normal network?

Cheers.

@GreenThreat

In AP mode you're not extending the main router's wireless network, but creating a new wireless SSID with the same/different name than what's on your main router.
