8. Examples of WP201-100 Networks 8.1. Access Point Mode l l In Access Point mode, the WP201-100 behaves likes a central connection for stations or clients that support IEEE 802.11ac/a/b/g/n networks. The stations and clients must be configured to use the same Service Set Identifier (SSID) and security password to associate with the WP201-100. Note: For secure access, the WP201-100 can simultaneously support a maximum of eight (8) SSIDs per band.

Mesh-Only Mode Using the Mesh-only mode, the WP201-100 can be configured with the same Mesh SSID and security password to associate with other Mesh-enabled WP201-100s, instead of connecting with clients. Note: Use Mesh-Only when NO wireless client will join on that band. Example: If meshing on 5GHz, set up as MESH-only, so that no clients interfere or compete in the channels used to mesh.
