The WDS (Wireless Distributed System) function lets this access point act as a wireless
LAN access point and repeater at the same time. Users can use this feature to build up a
large wireless network in a large space like airports, hotels and schools …etc. This feature
is also useful when users want to bridge networks between buildings where it is
impossible to deploy network cable connections between these buildings.
