Wireless bridging or Wireless Distribution System (WDS) is used to connect wireless routers and access points (APs) together to extend a network.

Click on the drop-down menu next to “Bridge Mode” to select either:

Disabled: To disable wireless bridging (default).

Manual: To enter the wireless MAC address(es) of the APs to which to bridge, manually.

1. Wireless channels must match between the Router and AP.

2. Security settings (WEP) must match between the Router and AP.

3. If MAC filtering is enabled, the user must be sure to add the WLAN MAC address(es) of the Router/AP in order to allow communication with each other.

4. If using a network protected by WPA, the SSID on both APs must be the same.
