Reference Manual for the NETGEAR WG102 ProSafe 802.11g Wireless Access Point
5-4 Advanced Configuration
October 2004
— Select this only if this WG102 is the “master” for a group of bridge-mode wireless
stations. Then all traffic is sent to this “master,” rather than directly among each other.
— In addition, you have the option of enabling client associations with this WG102.
— For multi-point bridge mode, you must enter the MAC addresses of the other access points
in the fields provided.
— The other bridge-mode wireless stations must be set to Point-to-Point Bridge mode, using
the MAC address of this WG102 as the Remote MAC Address.
— Use WEP to protect this traffic.
• Repeater with Wireless Client Association
— Selected repeater mode to send all traffic to the remote AP.
— For repeater mode, you must enter the MAC address of the remote “parent” access point,
and optionally enter the address of the “child” access point.
— In repeater mode, you do not have the option of disabling client associations with this
WG102.
These features are discussed below.
