RUT850 has the possibility to act as a WLAN Access Point and WLAN Station same time. The WLAN station interface usually is dedicated to be one of the WAN interfaces. But it can also be used as LAN interface and allow a second network to be routed to the internet.

The network architecture after the change would look as follows:
 +
[[File:RUT850 STA as LAN.png|600px|STA as LAN]]
 +
 
 +
Here are the steps to follow:
 +
 
 +
# Add the RUT850 to a existing WLAN access point as written in manual
 +
# Login to RUT850 via SSH
 +
# edit /etc/config files to move the interface wlan0 to the LAN security zone
 +
 
 +
After the change of the security zone to LAN incoming packets are forwarded to internet. They are treated the same as the packets coming in from access point interface br-lan of RUT850.
