Configuring WDS
A Wireless Distribution System (WDS) is a system that enables the wireless
interconnection of access points in a network. It allows a wireless network to be
expanded using multiple access points without the need for a wired backbone to
link them.
To establish a WDS link, the Cisco RV110W and other remote WDS peers must be
configured in the same wireless network mode, wireless channel, wireless band
selection, and encryption types (None and WEP).
NOTE
WDS is supported on one SSID only.
To configure a WDS:
STEP 1
Choose Wireless > WDS .
STEP 2
Check the Allow wireless signal to be repeated by a repeater box to enable
WDS.
STEP 3
To manually enter the MAC address of a repeater, click the Manual button, or
choose Auto to have the router automatically detect the remote access points.
STEP 4
(Optional) Click the Show Site Survey button.
The Available Networks Table appears listing the available wireless network
access points.
a. (Optional) Click the Refresh button to update the entries in the table.

repeaters.
c. To add the MAC addresses of the selected access points to the MAC fields
below the table, click Connect .
STEP 5

points to use as repeaters in the MAC 1 , MAC 2 , and MAC 3 fields.
