Turn a Router into an Access Point
Adding wireless access point functionality to the Cisco integrated services router's capabilities helps simplify configuration, deployment, and management of wireless LANs (WLANs) at enterprise branch offices or small and medium-sized businesses.
The Cisco WLAN high-speed WAN interface cards (HWICs) add access point functionality to the integrated Layer 3 routing, Layer 2 switching, and network security functions of the modular Cisco 1800 Series, and fixed-configuration Cisco 2800 Series and Cisco 3800 Series integrated services routers.
