A wireless network uses specific channels in the wireless spectrum to handle communication between clients. Some channels in your area may have interference from other electronic devices. Choose the clearest channel to help optimize the performance and coverage of your wireless network.

WDS Mode

When WDS is enabled, this access point functions as a wireless bridge and is able to wirelessly communicate with other access points via WDS links. A WDS link is bidirectional; both end points must support WDS and each access point must know the MAC Address of the other. Each access point will be configured with the remote access point’s MAC address and vice versa. Make sure all access points are configured with the same SSID, channel and wireless encryption settings.
