Chapter 4: Configuration Steps
2. Click “WDS Settings” in the left column, type the MAC address of the remote bridge into the “Remote AP MAC Address 1”
field and click “Apply.” See Figure 4-10.
Figure 4-10. WDS Settings screen.
NOTE: Bridge mode uses the WDS protocol that is not defined as the standard, so you might experience compatibility issues
between equipment from different vendors. Use tree or star shape network topology in all WDS use-cases. For example, if
AP2 and AP3 are specified as the WDS peers of AP1, AP2 should not be specified as the WDS peer of AP3, and AP3
should not be specified as the WDS peer of AP2. Avoid using mesh and ring network topologies, because they are not
supported by WDS.
3. Repeat the above procedures to configure the remote Wireless P-T-P Ethernet Extender.
4. Use ping to check whether the link between the two bridges is OK.
5. For better wireless connectivity, align the antennas on both bridges that are installed a long distance apart.
6. Open “Antenna Alignment” in Tools. See Figure 4-11. Choose the remote peer and click on the “Start” button.
