6.2. Mode: WDS
Wireless Distribution System, a system that enables the wireless interconnection of
access point, allows a wireless network to be expended using multiple access points
without a wired backbone to like them. Each WDS Router needs to set the same channel
and encryption type.
MAC address 1~4: Please enter the MAC address of the neighboring ROUTERs that
participates in WDS up to 4 devices.
Set Security: WDS Security depends on your router’s security settings. If you’ve setup
the encryption for your router, you do not have to configure again here. And if you
setup the encryptions here, your router’s security will be changed as well. Note: it
does not support mixed mode such as WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK Mixed mode.
Note: TEW-671BR supports of up to 4 MAC addresses using WDS feature. All units
have to enter the other units’ MAC address to create a point to point or point to
multiple point bridge networks.
WDS security is separated from the AP’s security settings meaning you need to
configure the WDS encryption in this screen again once you change the mode to
WDS.
