Considerations before installation –
z
Loop Prevention –
Be careful to plan you WDS connections, prevent your wireless network
topology to have loop. Once loop shows up, you network traffic will become unstable.
z
Performance –
The system can support up to 8 WDS links. But all links and wireless stations that
operate at the same time will all share single radio bandwidth. (Ex. 11g have 54Mbps bandwidth)
z
Latency –
In the chain topology configuration, if the chain becomes very long, end-to-end latency
issue may come in play. We suggest the WDS link topology planning should not exceed 2 hops in
chain configuration.
4.4.2 WDS Security Settings
WDS mode supports WEP and WPA-PSK. Please refer to section 4.1.7 for the detail of the configuration.
