Setting up WDS; the long version:1. It is recommended that all access points in the bridge are reset to their factory default settings.
This is done by holding the INIT button on the rear of the access point down for 5-10 seconds.
2. Login to the fi rst access point in the wireless bridge (this should be the DHCP server enabled
access point if there is not already a routed wired network).
3. Click on the Advanced button.
4. The wireless settings page will appear. Select the proper settings for the wireless network. Record
all settings on a piece of paper. All settings except for the SSID need to be identical amongst all
access points in the bridge. If roaming is desired, then set the SSID settings identically as well. Press
the Set button if any changes are made.
(NOTE: If the IP address was changed, then reconnecting to the access point for confi guration will
require accessing it via its new IP address in a web browser (e.g. http://NEW_IP_ADDRESS). Write
down the new IP address carefully if you changed it, and put it in a safe place!
5. Click on the LAN port link on the left.
6. Check that the LAN side IP address values are correct for your network, or leave them at their
defaults. Record the LAN side IP address. Press the Set button if any settings on this page have been
set.

8. The System Information page will appear. In the Wireless section of the table record the MAC
