4. Darbības režīmi
The Vonets VAP11S supports multiple operating modes to suit various networking requirements.
4.1 WiFi Bridge Mode
In Bridge mode, the VAP11S converts a WiFi signal into a wired signal, allowing wired devices (e.g., desktop computers, DVRs, PLCs) to connect to a wireless network. It effectively replaces the need for a physical network cable run to the main router.
