3.4.2.3 WDS AP Mode
The WDS-AP mode usually implements the Point to Point (P2P) connection, so the access point should be WDS-AP
and the wireless client should be WDS-Client. In this case, the AP just can share the connection to the specific
wireless client that has its MAC Address. But WDS-AP can be a repeater to provide network access to general clients.
