Step 3: Wireless Channel. Go to the Basic
→ Wireless
sub-menu. Uncheck the Random Channel Select check
box and set the channel to a specific channel. If you are
connecting an MBR1000 (repeater) to a CTR or PHS
(WAN), you need to set the MBR1000 to
Mixed 802.11g
and 802.11b , which makes it stop broadcasting in 802.11n
mode. NOTE: Make a note of the channel you have
selected, as you will need to specify the same channel in
the router with the WAN connection. Click
Save Settings ,
when prompted to Reboot or Continue , select Continue .
Step 4: Enable WDS. Go to the Advanced
→ Advanced
Wireless sub-menu. Check WDS Enable and enter the
MAC address of the WAN Router. Click Save Settings and
when prompted to Reboot or Continue , click Reboot .
Step 5: WAN Router. Repeat steps 3 and 4 on the router
with the WAN connection. Substitute the MAC address of
the WAN router with the MAC address of the repeater
router. After the routers have rebooted, the WDS peering
process will initiate and after approximately 2 minutes, the
devices should “see” each other. The router with the WAN
connection will serve DHCP through the repeater router.
Wireless clients that log in to either router should allow you to access the other router as well as the Internet.
