Operating Your Mesh WiFi System

Modes de xarxa

The Halo H50G system supports two primary operating modes:

• Mode d'encaminador: This is the default mode. The Halo system acts as your primary router, creating a new WiFi network and managing all connected devices.
• Mode de punt d'accés: If you already have an existing router and want to extend its WiFi coverage without creating a new network, you can configure the Halo system in Access Point mode. In this mode, the Halo units extend your existing wired network wirelessly.
