Setup WET200 as a wired bridge?

I have two separate offices in the same building that I'm trying to  connect.  They are physically far apart so I cannot connect them  wirelessly.  I have had an ethernet cable run from the main office to  the second office and physically connected it to a WET200.  I can see the  WET200 on my router in the main office.  In the second office, I want  clients to be able to come in and connect wirelessly to the WET200 which  will then connect them to my router and internet connection.  The  WET200 is the correct device for this?

Hi Ahmed, the wet200 does not broadcast a wireless connection. It cannot service as a wireless AP. The unit should be considered as a "wireless switch". You may wirelessly bridge between the units but require a physical connection to the wet200 for the remote users.

Here is a diagram
