Key Features
The WG602v4 provides solid functionality, including these features:
- Access Point Mode
- Access Point. Operates as a standard 802.11b/g wireless access point.
- Wireless Point-to-Point Bridging. In this mode, the WG602v4 only communicates with another bridge-mode wireless station.
- Wireless Multi-Point Bridging. In this mode, the WG602v4 acts as the "master" for a group of bridge-mode wireless stations. The other bridge-mode wireless stations send all traffic to this "master", and do not communicate directly with each other.
- Repeater with Wireless Client Association. In this mode, the WG602v4 operates as both a wireless access point and a wireless bridge.
- Client Mode. In this mode, the WG602v4 operates as a client bridge only, and sends all traffic to the remote wireless access point or peer device. MAC Cloning can also be enabled in Client Mode.
- Upgradeable Firmware. Firmware is stored in a flash memory and can be upgraded easily, using only your Web browser, and can be upgraded remotely.
- Access Control. The Access Control MAC address filtering feature can ensure that only trusted wireless stations can use the WG602v4 to gain access to your LAN.
- Wireless Multimedia (WMM) Support. WMM is a subset of the 802.11e standard. WMM allows wireless traffic to have a range of priorities, depending on the kind of data. Time-dependent information, like video or audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic. For WMM to function correctly, Wireless clients must also support WMM. (Not available in Client Mode.)
- Hidden Mode. The SSID is not broadcast, assuring only clients configured with the correct SSID can connect.
- Autosensing Ethernet Connection with Auto Uplink Interface. Connects to 10/100 Mbps IEEE 802.3 Ethernet networks.
- LED Indicators. Power, wired and wireless activity are easily identified.
- Simple Configuration. If the default settings are unsuitable, they are easy to change.
