Home Gateway

In this mode, use the Ethernet port to connect to the Internet through ADSL or

Cable Modem. In your environment, many users share the same IP to ISP.

In Home Gateway mode, Network Address Translation (NAT) is enabled,

which ensures network security. Each incoming or outgoing request goes

through a translation and authentication process. You can use PPPoE, DHCP

client, or static IP to make a WAN connection. In this mode, UPnP and DDNS

are also supported. These features are useful for home users.

Access Point

In Access Point mode, Ethernet port and wireless devices are set to locate in the

same local area network. Those WAN related functions are not supported here.

In Access Point mode, Network Address Translation (NAT) is disabled, one

wan port and four LAN ports are bridged together.

By default, the ASUS 802.11g AP operates in Access Point mode.
