Note:
Before configuring WDS, please ensure the following first:
1. Make sure different IP addresses are assigned to each WDS supported wireless device
used for bridging. (ex. 192.168.10.1,192.168.10.2, 192.168.10.3) to avoid IP address
conflict. See
page 30
for changing the LAN IP address.
2. If you are using more than one WDS supported router, please make sure the LAN
DHCP server is enabled on only one and disabled on all others to avoid IP address
conflict. See
page 31
for DHCP server options.
3. Configure the same wireless channel and use the same on all WDS supported wireless
devices. See
page 10
for configuring basic wireless settings.
4. Configure the same wireless security and key on all WDS supported devices. See page
15 for configuring wireless security settings.
To configure WDS bridging between TEW-828DRU routers:
1. Log into your router management page (see “
Access your router management page
”
on page 9).
2. Click on
Advanced > Wireless (2.4GHz
or
5GHz
),
and click on
WDS
.
3. Next to
Wireless Distribution System (WDS)
, in an empty field, enter the MAC
address of the other WDS supported wireless device you are bridging. (e.g.
00:11:22:AA:BB:CC)
4. To save changes, click
Apply
.
Note:
If you would like to discard the changes, click
Cancel
before you click
Save
.
For additional routers, make sure to disable the DHCP server first on all additional
routers and configure the LAN IP address to be different on each router. You will
connect devices to the LAN ports 1-4 only on all additional routers and the WAN port is
not used. Then, repeat the steps for additional routers you are bridging.
In the diagram below, the blue color represents the WDS wireless bridged connections
between the routers. The green color represents access point mode connections
between wireless client devices and the routers.
