Chapter 5 AP Mode
In Soft AP mode, the adapter will work as an AP. Suppose that only one computer in your
house can access the Internet for various reasons like only one WLAN port is available on your
wired broadband router, however, other wireless-capable devices also want to share the
Internet. Then the adapter can be configured as an AP under the Soft AP mode, saving you the
trouble of having to get a separate access point or a router.
With this feature, a computer can use a single physical wireless adapter to connect as a client
to a hardware access point while at the same time acting as a software AP allowing other
wireless-capable devices to connect to it.
To switch to this mode, right-click on the utility icon in your system tray and select Switch to
SoftAP mode.
