3.4.5 WDS (Wireless Distribution System)
Wireless Distribution System uses wireless media to communicate with other APs, like the
Ethernet does. To do this, you must set these APs in the same channel and set MAC
address of other APs which you want to communicate with in the table and then enable the
WDS.
The Wireless Distribution System (WDS) allows you to extend the range of your wireless
network by introducing one or more WDS-enabled devices into your wireless network. You
can only establish WDS links with WDS-enabled devices.
You need to select the WDS mode in the Wireless Basic settings screen and then the WDS
Settings will be modified.
Choose Enable WDS to enable the WDS function.
Type in the MAC address and Comment in the entry fields. And then click on the “Apply
Changes” button to add the MAC address to the WDS AP list.
You can click the “Delete Selected” to delete the MAC address that you selected, or click
“Delete All” to delete all MAC address in the list table.
Note: Please Commit/Reboot if you want to make this settings effective immediately
