A wireless bridge, or point-to-point system, connects two separate networks, like two buildings or rooms, using a wireless signal instead of cables.

Imagine you have a farm and want to share the internet connection between the main house and the barn apartment, but there’s no Ethernet cable between them. A wireless bridge can help by creating a "wireless bridge" between the two networks.

Here’s how it works:

Two parts: A wireless bridge usually has two main parts — one that sends the signal and one that receives it. The sending part connects to your first network (like a router or switch), and the receiving part connects to the second network, such as another router or computer.

Wireless connection: Instead of using wires, the sending and receiving parts communicate with each other using radio waves, kind of like how your Wi-Fi works at home.

Extending the network: The bridge essentially makes it seem like the two networks are connected by a long cable, even though they are linked wirelessly. This helps you extend the reach of your network to places where it’s hard to run wires.

Why use it? A wireless bridge is useful when you need to connect two areas that are too far apart for regular Wi-Fi to reach or where running cables would be difficult or expensive. We have connected buildings over 1000 ft apart while receiving great signals.

So, in simple terms, a wireless bridge lets two networks talk to each other without needing to run cables between them. It’s like using a wireless "tunnel" to send data from one place to another!
