"The Belkin 11Mbps Wireless Access Point (WAP) is designed to act as a "bridge" between your existing wired network, and your wireless devices. It has been built around the assumption that you already have a wired network in place, be it a corporate sized LAN with routers and switches or just a small office / home network with a couple of routers, hubs, or gateways. This device allows you to add wireless capabilities to your existing LAN, simply by plugging this device into your wired network, and giving it an IP address either by setting it manually, or by allowing your existing DHCP server to assign it an IP address. The wireless access point will then be able to "relay" data from your wireless devices to your wired network, thus acting as a router / gateway for your wireless devices and workstations.
