6.4 UNIVERSAL REPEATER SETUP
The Universal Repeater function is similar with WDS in that it is used to essentially enlarge the area of wireless
network coverage. However, unlike WDS, Universal Repeater offers simplicity in configuration requirements, as
users only need to configure the current AP as a client, and to connect it to the second AP‟s SSID (or BSSID).
However, you need to ensure that the two APs are using the same wireless channel and security mode (and key)
for Universal Repeater to work effectively.
Please note that this function is not supported when enable Hardware NAT function. The configuration can be
set on [Bandwidth-TurboNAT].
