5. Tryby pracy
The Tenda A18 Pro supports two main operating modes:
5.1. Tryb wzmacniacza (rozszerzenie bezprzewodowe)
In this mode, the A18 Pro wirelessly connects to your existing router and extends its Wi-Fi signal to areas with weak or no coverage. This is the most common use case for a Wi-Fi extender.
5.2. Tryb AP (punkt dostępowy)
In AP mode, the A18 Pro connects to your router via an Ethernet cable and creates a new wireless network. This is useful for converting a wired network into a wireless one or for providing Wi-Fi in an area where only wired access is available. You can connect devices like printers or set-top boxes to the A18 Pro's Gigabit Ethernet port in this mode.

5.3. Inteligentne funkcje
- Automatic Dual-Band Extension: Expands both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands seamlessly.
- Bridge Network Signal Check: Detects the strength of the upstream signal and alerts users when it's weak, helping to quickly select the best installation location.
- Extended Band Auto-Preference: Uses an intelligent link selection algorithm to ensure the network remains online with the best available band.
