The scheme depicts two RUTxxx routers - RUT1 and RUT2. RUT1 has access to the Internet through an undefined type of WAN (it can be any). RUT2 acts as a WiFi Station (STA) and gains access to the Internet via RUT1's WiFi Access Point (AP) (SSID: RUT_WiFi). RUT2's DHCP Server is disabled. This is done so that the end devices connected to RUT2 get IP addresses from RUT1's DHCP Server with the help of Relay.

A WiFi Access Point (AP) and DHCP Server are enabled by default on RUTxxx routers, but if you wish to make changes, you can find the configuration pages for the services by logging in to the router's WebUI and visiting the '''Network → Interfaces''' click [[File:Networking rutx manual edit button v1.png]] '''Edit''' button on the right side of interface for DHCP settings.

* Next window that opens will be '''Device Configuration'''. Values there, mostly, should be left unchanged to avoid connection problems, because they are dictated by ''Access'' Point. Other than that, only difference from Access Point settings are in ''Interface Configuration'' → ''General Setup section'', where '''Mode''' is set to '''Client''', and '''Network''' attached to this wireless interface is '''WAN''' instead of LAN:

==Testing the set up==

==Testing the set up==

If you've taken all of the steps described above, the configuration is done. But as with any other configuration, it is always wise to test the set up in order to make sure that it works properly. To test this particular set up, login to any of the routers go to '''Services → CLI'''. Login with user name: '''root''' and the router's admin password. You should then be able to '''ping''' the other router or any of the end devices that you have connected to either of the two router's. To execute a ping command, type '''ping <devices_ip>''' into the console and press the Enter key:

Replace <devices_ip> with an actual IP address of a device that is in your network and if the ping requests are successful it means the configuration is working. You can check the IP addresses of the devices connected to your network in RUT1's '''Status → Routes''' section.
