To configure the router as an AP client, follow these steps: 1. Connect to the router's web interface by entering the router's IP address in a web browser. The default IP address is usually "10.10.0.1". .. image:: /periph_user_guide/westonrobot/figures/5g_router/home_page.png :width: 450 px :align: center 2. Click into the AP client configuration page. .. image:: /periph_user_guide/westonrobot/figures/5g_router/ap_client_tab.png :width: 450 px :align: center 3. Change "Wireless Operation Mode" to "AP-Client + AP" or "AP-Client (AP is disabled)" **Note**: The difference between the 2 modes is whether the router will also broadcast its own Wifi network. If you want the router to broadcast its own Wifi network, choose "AP-Client + AP". .. image:: /periph_user_guide/westonrobot/figures/5g_router/operation_mode.png :width: 450 px :align: center 4. Switch Role to "WAN (Wireless ISP)", configure the Wifi network settings of the **existing network** to connect and click "Apply" .. image:: /periph_user_guide/westonrobot/figures/5g_router/ap_settings.png :width: 450 px :align: center 5. After applying the settings, the router will attempt to connect to the existing Wifi network. You can check the connection status on the "Status" page. For 5Ghz network ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The router supports both 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz networks, you can configure the router to connect to a 5Ghz network by clicking the "Go to 5Ghz Setting" button and repeat the steps above. .. image:: /periph_user_guide/westonrobot/figures/5g_router/5ghz_setting.png :width: 450 px :align: center Changing the Router's LAN IP Address ------------------------------------ The router's LAN IP address range can be changed to fit your network configuration. To change the LAN IP address, follow these steps: 1. Connect to the router's web interface by entering the router's IP address in a web browser. The default IP address is usually "10.10.0.1". .. image:: /periph_user_guide/westonrobot/figures/5g_router/home_page.png :width: 450 px :align: center 2. Click into the "LAN" configuration tab. .. image:: /periph_user_guide/westonrobot/figures/5g_router/lan_config_tab.png :width: 450 px :align: center 1. Adjust the LAN settings as needed and click "Apply". **Note**: DHCP server settings should be adjusted automatically to suit the new LAN settings. .. image:: /periph_user_guide/westonrobot/figures/5g_router/lan_settings.png :width: 450 px :align: center
