This is a very small router therefore the box is very small. On the box you can see the unit itself and on the back you can read about how this unit can be hooked up. You can for example set it up at router mode which allows you to use it as the main router and have wifi connections hook up to it.

The second option is the AP mode where you hook this router up to the main router and have the WIFI connect to it, this is good if you don't have WIFI on your old router/modem. Third option is the AP client mode which allows you to hook up this router with WIFI to the main router, removing all need for cords.
