ystem (WDS) expands a wireless
network by using multiple Access Points connected wirelessly.
All APs must use the same channel.
Note:
Most users who want to configure the AP+4 as a repeater
should choose Universal Repeater Mode (see Wireless Basic
Settings, page 20) instead of WDS, because a Universal
Repeater is easier to set up and provides the best performance.
