AP Repeater Mode

Wireless Mode — The device operates in the frequency of 2.4 GHz for 802.11g. Radio Frequency — Set manually or use SmartSelect for automatic channel

selection.

WDS — Enable, disable or disable with multiple PC support. When the wireless distribution system is enabled, all PCs connected to a bridge/AP can communicate with each other. When WDS is disabled, only PCs connected to the same bridge/ AP can communicate with each other. When disabled with multiple PC support, all PCs connected to a bridge/AP can communicate with each other, even if the AP cannot support WDS.

Advanced Settings — This is to set the distance for bridging. The default is 4-6 km. Remote AP MAC List — As a bridge, the device will only associate with an AP whose MAC address is in the list. Enter the MAC address of the AP without

any spacing in front or behind it. Also:

•Make sure you’re connecting to the AP only through a directly connected

Ethernet link.

•Adjust the device to obtain sufficient signal quality.

•When in Client mode, generate some traffic between the AP and the bridge: e.g., for a bridge with an IP of 192.168.1.33, run “ping 192.168.1.33-t-l 10000” at the command prompt.

This device, Model 503679, will repeat only with another Model 503679.
