4. 작동 모드
The VAP11AC supports several operating modes to suit different networking requirements.
4.1 WiFi Bridge Mode
In Bridge mode, the VAP11AC converts a WiFi signal into a wired Ethernet connection. This is ideal for devices that only have an Ethernet port but need to connect to a wireless network, such as desktop computers, network printers, surveillance cameras, or DVRs.
- 접근하기 web interface and select Bridge mode.
- Scan for available WiFi networks and select your desired network.
- Enter the WiFi password if required.
- Connect your wired device to the VAP11AC's Ethernet port.
Figure 4.1: VAP11AC in WiFi Bridge mode.
4.2 WiFi 리피터 모드
Repeater mode extends the coverage of an existing WiFi network. The VAP11AC receives the wireless signal from your main router and re-broadcasts it, eliminating dead zones and improving signal strength in areas with weak coverage.
- 접근하기 web interface and select Repeater mode.
- Scan for available WiFi networks and select the network you wish to extend.
- Enter the WiFi password. The VAP11AC will then extend this network.

4.3 WiFi Router Mode
In Router mode, the VAP11AC acts as a primary router, creating a new wireless network. This is suitable for scenarios where you have a wired internet connection (e.g., from a modem) and need to share it wirelessly with multiple devices.
- 접근하기 web interface and select Router mode.
- Configure WAN settings (e.g., DHCP, Static IP, PPPoE) based on your internet service provider.
- Set up your new WiFi network's SSID and password.
- Connect your modem's Ethernet cable to the VAP11AC's Ethernet port.
Figure 4.3: VAP11AC in WiFi Router mode.
4.4 AP(액세스 포인트) 모드
AP mode allows the VAP11AC to create a wireless network from an existing wired network. This is useful for adding WiFi capabilities to a wired-only network, such as in hotel rooms or offices.
- 접근하기 web interface and select AP mode.
- Configure the SSID and password for the new wireless network.
- Connect the VAP11AC's Ethernet port to your wired network.

5. 유지관리
5.1 Smart Cooling Fan
The VAP11AC features a smart cooling fan designed to activate automatically after 5-10 minutes of normal operation to dissipate heat and ensure stable performance. The fan will also automatically shut down when cooling is no longer required.
This fan function can be configured manually via the web interface, allowing you to disable it, set it to automatic control, or periodic automatic control.
