CENTRIA WNDR4700/WNDR4720

The router is always in dual-band concurrent mode, unless you turn off one radio. If you enable the wireless repeater in either radio band, the wireless base station or wireless repeater cannot be enabled in the other radio band. However, if you enable the wireless base station in either radio band and use the other radio band as a wireless router or wireless base station, dual-band concurrent mode is not affected.

For you to set up a wireless network with WDS, both access points must meet the following conditions:

•Both access points have to use the same SSID, wireless channel, and encryption mode.

•Both access points have to be on the same LAN IP subnet. That is, all the access point LAN IP addresses are in the same network.

•All LAN devices (wired and wireless computers) are configured to operate in the same LAN network address range as the access points.
