Modes

The APC 3-in-1 Wireless Mobile Router functions in the

following modes (see the back panel for switch settings):

• Access Point (AP) mode (switch position 1) to act as

a wireless bridge between an existing LAN and a

wireless user. It inherits the profile (security, user, etc.)

of the existing LAN

• AP/Router mode (switch position 2) to act as a

wireless networking device that connects networks by

a wireless connection and create specific profiles,

such as security and users

• Config (Configuration) mode (switch position 3) to

connect to the APC 3-in-1 Wireless Mobile Router to

change its configuration

• Client mode (switch position 4) to convert an

Ethernet port to a wireless interface

Security Alert: When in a location, such as a hotel or

airport, that requires payment to connect to the

Internet, APC recommends using “AP/Router” mode

(switch position 2) with security set to WEP, WPA, or

MAC filtering. These settings help to avoid any

unauthorized access and charges. For more

information on security and mode selection, see the

user’s manual.
