No not implying anything I am clearly stating I am setting the unit up as an Access point. P115 of user manual
I assume you mean question 1. This is out of date. The unit when initialy shipped could only be setup in this way. However - the lastest firmware allows you to set the unit up as an extender or an access point. It is the first question the configurator asks.
Please bear in mind I have setup dozens of AP's over the years. Its quite simple at no point in any way or configuration should the unit be acting/advertising it is a DNS server. It did, this caused the problems stated. Units gone back.
