How to Configure a WG602 v2 as a Point-to-Point Bridge

Figure 5-3: Wireless Point-to-Point Bridging

Verify the following parameters for all access points:

• Verify that the LAN network configuration of the WG602 v2 Access Points are configured

to operate in the same LAN network address range as the LAN devices

• If using DHCP, all WG602 v2 Access Points should be set to “Obtain an IP address

automatically (DHCP Client)” in the IP Address Source portion of the Basic IP Settings

menu.

• If MAC access control list security is enabled on the APs, verify that the MAC access

control lists on each AP are complete for the entire network and accurate.

• All WG602 v2 Access Points use the same SSID, Channel, WEP authentication mode, if

any, and encryption in use (WPA is not available in bridge modes).

• All Point-to-Point APs must have AP2’s MAC address in its Remote AP MAC address

table. You can locate the MAC address in the Information page of each WG602 v2.

Note: The 54 Mbps Wireless Access Point WG602 v2 bridging and repeater modes are

only compatible with the NETGEAR WG602v2 and the NETGEAR WG302 Wireless

Access Points.
