6. Chế độ hoạt động
The VONETS VBG1200 supports three primary operating modes:
6.1. WiFi Bridge Mode
In Bridge mode, the device converts a WiFi signal into a wired Ethernet connection. This is ideal for connecting wired-only devices (e.g., network printers, DVRs, IP cameras, smart TVs, gaming consoles like PS3) to a wireless network without running long Ethernet cables.
Figure 6.1: WiFi Bridge Application
Cấu hình: Connect the VBG1200 to your wired device via Ethernet. Access the configuration page, select Bridge mode, and connect to your existing WiFi network by entering its SSID and password.
6.2. WiFi Repeater Mode
Repeater mode extends the range of an existing WiFi network. The VBG1200 receives the wireless signal from your main router and re-broadcasts it, effectively expanding coverage to areas with weak or no signal.
Figure 6.2: WiFi Repeater Application
Cấu hình: Place the VBG1200 within range of your main WiFi router. Access the configuration page, select Repeater mode, and connect to your existing WiFi network. The device will then extend this network.
6.3. WiFi Router Mode
In Router mode, the VBG1200 acts as a primary wireless access point. It can connect to an internet source (e.g., a modem) via its Ethernet port and then broadcast its own WiFi network for multiple devices to connect to.
