(2) To ensure the connection, please set the same channel and security
method between different APs.
(3) To bridge different model and router, the function only supports “Open
system WEP” security7 authentication method.
AP Mode: There have 3 options for WDS function
(1) AP Only – Default settings. When this function is selected, it means Router
works like AP function only.
(2) WDS Only (Bridge Mode) -- AP router will function as a wireless bridge,
merely forwarding traffic between access points, and will not respond to
wireless requests. In fact, they become wireless bridges while configured in
this manner. Only a small number of access points on the market have
bridge functionality, which typically adds significant cost to the equipment.
The WDS peers must be manually stated and wireless stations will not be
able to connect to AP router. You can see from below diagram that clients
do not associate to bridges, but rather, bridges are used to link two or more
wired segments together wirelessly.
(3)
Hybrid (Repeater mode) – AP router will act as a repeater, interconnecting
between access points. In repeater mode, access points have the ability
to provide a wireless upstream link into the wired network rather than the
normal wired link. As you can see the below diagram, one access point
serves as the Restricted access point and the other serves as a wireless
repeater. The access point in repeater mode connects to clients as an
access point and connects to the upstream restricted access point as a
client itself. Using an access point in Repeater mode is not suggested unless
absolutely necessary because cells around each access point in the
scenario must overlap by minimum of 50%.This configuration drastically
