GN-AP01G AirCruiser G Access Point

14

WDS Settings

The WDS function allows several of the access points to compose a wide Wireless LAN network. Please
note all APs must be set to use the same channel and the SSID of all participating APs must also be the

same

.

WDS technologies between AP manufacturers vary widely, so you may not be able to establish WDS
between APs from different manufacturers.
