LABEL | DESCRIPTION |
WMM | Select On to have the ZyXEL Device automatically give a service a |
| priority level according to the ToS value in the IP header of packets it |
| sends. WMM QoS (Wifi MultiMedia Quality of Service) gives high priority |
| to voice and video, which makes them run more smoothly. |
|
|
WMM Power | Select this option to extend the battery life of your mobile devices |
Save | (especially useful for small devices that are running multimedia |
| applications). The ZyXEL Device goes to sleep mode to save power when |
| it is not transmitting data. The AP buffers the packets sent to the ZyXEL |
| Device until the ZyXEL Device "wakes up". The ZyXEL Device wakes up |
| periodically to check for incoming data. |
| Note: Note: This works only if the wireless device to which the |
| ZyXEL Device is connected also supports this feature. |

7.7 The WDS Screen
An AP using the Wireless Distribution System (WDS) can function as a wireless network bridge allowing you to wirelessly connect two wired network segments. The WDS screen allows you to configure the ZyXEL Device to connect to two or more APs wirelessly when WDS is enabled.
Use this screen to set up your WDS (Wireless Distribution System) links between the ZyXEL Device and other wireless APs. You need to know the MAC address of the peer device. Once the security settings of peer sides match one another, the connection between devices is made.
Note: WDS security is independent of the security settings between the ZyXEL Device and any wireless clients.
Note: At the time of writing, WDS is compatible with other ZyXEL APs only. Not all models support WDS links. Check your other AP’s documentation.
