Wireless Distribution System

The Wireless Distribution System allows your ASUS Pocket Wireless AP to communicate simultaneously with wireless clients (AP mode) and with other APs (wireless bridge mode) in your location. The WDS is a cost-effective and easy way of integrating multiple wireless networks.

AP Mode. The AP mode allows you to select the device mode in a WDS environment. Select an AP mode from the drop-down menu. Refer

to the next section for details on the AP modes.

Channel. Select the channel you wish to use in communicating with other APs in your location. All APs in a wireless bridge mode must specify the same channel to establish connection.

WDS APs allowed to be connected. This table allows you to specify the MAC address(s) of a device(s) allowed to connect to the ASUS Pocket Wireless AP. The table is activated only when the AP Mode is set to Hybrid-Active.
