WDS Settings
Wireless Distribution System (WDS) allows you to use the Access Point to wirelessly
connect to other Access Points. In WDS mode, the Access Point can function as a Main
Access Point which is connected to a network using a cable, or it can be a Relay Access
Point which is wirelessly connected to the Main Access Point.
To configure WDS mode you will need to adjust the settings for the following fields:
a) Enable WDS: First you must enable the WDS function to use it.
b) MAC Address: Enter the MAC address of the Access Point that you wish to connect
to. If you are configuring the Main Access Point then you would need to enter the
Relay Access Point’s MAC Address here.
c) Comment: Provide a comment, such as “Main Access Point” to easily remember
which Access Point belongs to which MAC Address entry.
d) Band: Select the wireless band you wish to operate on.
e) Wireless Network (SSID): Enter the wireless SSID of your Access Point. Do not use the
same SSID for two separate Access Points.
