[. . . ] Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (ODFM) - OFDM allows multiple users to transmit in an allocated band by dividing the bandwidth into many narrow bandwidth carriers. Repeater and Bridge - Repeater and bridge can provide an extended link to a remote access point from the wired LAN. Access Point working in this mode could connect to another AP in Access Point mode or Repeater and Bridge mode. Whenever there are two APs having wireless link together (one in Access Point or Repeater and Bridge mode, another using Repeater and Bridge mode), and also have wired link separately, these two APs are also working as "bridging" for the two wired links.
