CHAPTER 4
NBG6617 Modes
4.1 Overview
This chapter introduces the different modes available on your NBG6617. First, the term “mode”
refers to two things in this User’s Guide.
Web Configurator mode. This refers to the Web Configurator interface you want to use for
editing NBG6617 features.
Device mode. This is the operating mode of your NBG6617, or simply how the NBG6617 is
being used in the network.
4.1.1 Web Configurator Modes
This refers to the configuration interface of the Web Configurator, which has two modes:
Easy: The Web Configurator shows this mode by default. Refer to Chapter 5 on page 28 for more
information on the screens in this mode. This interface may be sufficient for users who just want
to use the device.
Expert: Advanced users can change to this mode to customize all the functions of the NBG6617.
Click > Expert Mode after logging into the Web Configurator. The User’s Guide Chapter 9 on
page 60 through Chapter 15 on page 147 discusses the screens in this mode.
4.1.2 Device Modes
This refers to the operating mode of the NBG6617, which can act as a:
Router: This is the default device mode of the NBG6617. Use this mode to connect the local
network to another network, like the Internet. Go to Section 6.2 on page 36 to view the Status
screen in this mode.
Access Point: Use this mode if you want to extend your network by allowing network devices to
connect to the NBG6617 wirelessly. Go to Section 7.4 on page 44 to view the Status screen in
this mode.
For more information on these modes and to change the mode of your NBG6617, refer to Chapter
15 on page 147.
The menu for changing device modes is available in Expert Mode only.
Note: Choose your device mode carefully to avoid having to change it later.
When changing to another mode, the IP address of the NBG6617 changes. The running applications
and services of the network devices connected to the NBG6617 can be interrupted.
