Chapter 1 Application Mode
1.1 Bridge + Repeater Mode
There are three application modes for the bridge mode of VONETS module: WiFi
repeater, WiFi bridge and WiFi AP.
⚫WiFi Repeater:
VONETS module as WiFi Repeater, it must be configured to source WiFi hostpot
parameters, can be used to extend the wireless signal coverage of existing APs
or wifi router .
⚫WiFi Bridge:
VONETS module as WiFi bridge, it must be configured to source WiFi hotspot
parameters, can be used for devices only with Ethernet ports to access wireless
networks.
⚫WiFi AP：
VONETS module as WiFi AP, it can achieve wireless access to wired LAN, no
configuration required, plug and play.

1.2 Router Mode
⚫VONETS module as WiFi router
The Ethernet port of VM300 module defaults to WAN port. The Ethernet cable defaults
to the LAN port. WAN and LAN ports are interchangeable.
The Ethernet cable of VM5G module defaults to LAN port, you must set “WAN/LAN
interchange”so that the Ethernet cable is WAN port to use the broadband dialing
function.
⚫VONETS module is used as a wireless router. WAN port can be set to connect to the
WiFi hotspot for use as a secondary router.

Chapter 2 Bridge+Repeater Mode Configuration
Instruction
2.1 Device Connection
Power on VONETS module by 5V/2A power supply, then connect to PC, there are two
connection ways as below:
A. Computer is wired connected to LAN port of VONETS module;
（Recommend Method）

B. The computer wirelessly connects to the WiFi signal of VONETS module, its
default hotspot parameters are as follows:
WiFi SSID
WiFi Password
VONETS_2.4G_****
12345678
VONETS_5G_****
12345678
(After the WiFi parameters are configured, the WiFi will be disconnected, that is normal.)
2.2 Bridge+Repeater Application Configuration
The configuration steps of VONETS module for WiFi repeater and WiFi bridge are
basically the same, so this manual combines the configuration instructions of the two
application modes.
1. After computer is connected to VONETS module, open browser, input configured page:
http://vonets.cfg (or IP: 192.168.254.254), then press Enter;
2. Input User name and Password in login page (both are “admin”), click “Login”
button to enter configured page;
3. “Scan Hotspots”, choose the source hotspots, click “Next”;

4. Input “Source wireless hotspot password”, click “Apply”;
⚫IP layer transparent transmission (factory default), transparent transmission
of IP layer data, can meet most of WiFi bridge applications;
⚫MAC layer transparent transmission, transparent transmission of all data above
the MAC layer (link layer) and MAC layer, including IP layer data. MAC
transparent transmission can solve some special applications for MAC layer
encryption, such as GoPro camera, Cisco AP, Hikvision monitoring system, etc;
⚫The option “The configuration parameters of WiFi repeater security is
synchronized with source hotspot” is default ticked, it means the SSID of
VONETS repeater is associated with the SSID of the source hotspot, and the WiFi
password is the same as the password of the source hotspot;
⚫Disable hotspot, if you select “Disable hotspot” on the right side of the
SSID, the device will not transmit the corresponding hotspot and can only be
used as a bridge application;
⚫Advanced Setting,include Hot spot authentication match mode, WiFi Signal Motion
Detection and SSA Signal strength alarm threshold,these options here can be
kept unchanged, for instructions on this option, go to www.vonets.com and
download the “V Series WiFi Bridge Advanced Features Instruction”;
