Configuration as a Wireless Access Point (AP)
If you wish to extend your wireless network coverage range, you need to add new access
points to specific locations in your home. This will enable other wireless notebook PCs and
network devices to access the extended wireless network. The Web Tuner device can also be
configured as a wireless AP. With this feature, you can easily extend your wireless coverage
without having to purchase another AP.
To configure the Web Tuner device as an AP, you need to setup the device manually via the
MMI menu "Setup/Advanced Setup/Configure Network/AP mode". You then need to enter the
IP address, the SSID, the channel number and the AP encryption. Once these settings have
been established, the device will automatically reboot and function as an AP.
Manually set to the Wireless AP Mode:
