WDS (Wireless Distribution System)

Click on the WDS link on the navigation drop-down menu. The Wireless Distribution System feature configures this device as a repeater and therefore extends the range/coverage area of the wireless network.

￿Enable WDS: When WDS is enabled, this access point functions as a wireless repeater and is able to wirelessly communicate with other APs via WDS links.

A WDS link is bidirectional; so this AP must know the MAC Address (creates the WDS link) of the other AP, and the other AP must have a WDS link back to this AP. Make sure the APs are configured with same channel number.

￿Add WDS AP: Specify one-half of the WDS link. The other AP must also have the MAC address of this AP to create the WDS link back to this AP.

￿Click on the Apply Changes to save the changes.
