6.6 WDS Link Settings

Using WDS (Wireless Distribution System) to connect Access Point wirelessly extends a wired infrastructure to locations where cabling is not possible or inefficient to implement.

Note: Compatibility between different brands and models of Access Point is not guaranteed. It is recommended that the WDS network be created using the same Access Point models for maximum compatibility.

Also, all Access Points in the WDS network needs to use the same Channel and Security settings.

To create a WDS network, please enter the MAC addresses of the Access Point that you want included in the WDS. There can be a maximum of four access points.

Note: Only in WDS AP and WDS Bridge mode.
