when the data pass through the Repeater, it is necessary to use the WDS Repeater mode.
Because the radio is divided into WDS + AP mode, the Repeater mode will have less
performance and distance. In this mode, it is recommended to use an external
Omni-Directional antenna.
1.4.5 Universal Repeater Mode
In Universal Repeater mode, the AIRMAX2 functions as a repeater that extends the range
of remote wireless LAN. This mode can repeat the signal of any remote AP/Router, even
if they do not have WDS capability. However, the MAC addresses of any wireless traffic
going through Universal Repeater are “translated” into the Repeater’s MAC address. As a
result, any applications that require identification by MAC address (such as hotspot or
firewall) can not use this mode. It is also recommended to use “DHCP” Relay function to
get IP address from remote DHCP server.
Because the radio is divided into WDS + AP mode, the Repeater mode will have less
performance and distance. In this mode, it is recommended to use an external
Omni-Directional antenna.
1.4.6 WISP Router Mode
In WISP Router Mode, AIRMAX2 connects to the remote Access Point as in Client
Infrastructure Mode. On the LAN side, it acts like a wired router for IP sharing function.
This mode is best used for IP sharing application for WISP subscribers. In this mode, the
WAN is the wireless client side, the LAN is the wired side.
