Enable this if you wish to use either Bridge mode or Repeater mode, and then select the desired mode for your environment:
Wireless Repeater In this mode, the WNR3500 will communicate ONLY with another Base Station-mode
Wireless Station. You must enter the MAC address (physical address) of the
other Base Station-mode Wireless Station in the field provided. WEP can (and should)
be used to protect this communication.
Wireless Base Station Select this only if this WNR3500 is the "Master" for a group of
Repeater-mode Wireless Stations. The other Repeater-mode Wireless Stations must be
set to Wireless Repeater mode, using this WNR3500's MAC
address. They then send all traffic to this "Master", rather than
communicate directly with each other. WEP can (and should) be used to protect
this traffic.
If selected, you must enter the MAC addresses of the other Access Points in the fields provided.
