Access Point mode is the router uses a wired connection to the primary router or modem router to expand the wireless coverage for a home network.

For details, please refer to How to log into the web interface of Cudy Router?
Step 2: The Quick Setup window will pop up, choose 'Wireless Access Point', then click 'Next'.
Step 3: Choose your 'Time Zone'.
Step 4: Confirm the hardware connection.
Step 5: Change the wireless network name and password.
Step 6: Click "Save & Apply" to complete the configuration.
Step 7: Wait a few seconds for the system rebooting, when the login page pops up again, you can enjoy the internet.
Note:
After setting up the Cudy router into Access Point mode, the IP address will be assigned by the host router and the default IP Address 192.168.10.1 will not able to log in. If you need to log into Cudy router again, type 'http://cudy.net' into your browser or look up the Cudy router's IP address in your main (primary) router's client list.

Bonsoir a tous , j’espère que vous vous portez bien.
Au fait j’ai configuré mon antenne Cudy AC 1200 en mode point d’accès sans fil. Au début ça fonctionnait correctement, mais après une journée de fonctionnement, lorsque les clients essaie de se connecter, le portail captif de mon mikrotik au quel est connecté l’antenne ne s’affiche pas. Ç’est ma deuxième antenne qui fonctionne de cette manière. Vraiment j’ai besoin d’aide.

Dear Customer，
Thank you for contacting Cudy support team.
Please set the AP to static IP address, then reboot the main router, and check again.
“Hi, I have installed a Cudy 1300 Outdoor AP on a clients site, did the complete setup and as a wireless access point. I had set static ip address for the AP but werent internet connection through the AP, I then changed the AP’s ip setting to dhcp. On the status page it shows that the AP is connected to the internet via the lan cable but when I connect my laptop other device to the wifi its not getting internet access. Also cannot pin the gateway ip address from my laptop, but on the diagnostics page of the ap I can ping the gateway ip address. Can you please help with this, as I have a wireless camera connected to this AP but cannot access it from my lan.”

@Steve,
Dear Customer,
Thank you for contacting Cudy support team. Please follow the steps:
1. Set the LAN IP address to the same subnet of the main router, it will be easy to login to the web page.
2. Set the WiFi SSID and password as you want.
3. Disable the DHCP server of the P5.
Then you can connect to the main router and use it as a AP.
“I have configured my P5 router, now I’d like to change it to Access Point. I can not see in the web interface any references at all to operation mode. How do I change the operation mode from wireless router to Access Point router?”

“Hi. I have an LT500 router upstairs with sim card and another downstairs connected in AP mode via ethernet cable to the 1st one due there is very little wifi signal coming between floors through the ceiling. It works well but results in 2 different wifi networks upstairs and downstairs. So when moving between rooms devices not always switch to the network with better signal. How to make it one network with same login and password on both floors? Is it possible to configure a mesh in this situation?”
