Greetings,
I've successfully set up a dumb AP, but remain confused about the documentation about it.
In reference to
https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/wifi/wifiextenders/bridgedap
What is the difference between following the instructions under the heading " Wi-Fi Extender/Repeater with Bridged AP over Ethernet" and " Wireless Access Point - Dumb Access Point"? Are there examples scenarios in which one is preferable over the other?
Both seem to create a bridge interface, attach a wireless network to it, and disable dnsmasq. The additional commands under " Wireless Access Point - Dumb Access Point" disable dhcp6 and firewall functionality; but I'm failing to see how the firewall affects the configs.
My search of the forums didn't yield any insight.
Thank you for your time
