6.3 Coverage Range Extender Setup
Extending from the above scenario, if the distance needs to be further extended, it is always
possible to add more AW5500C (in WDS Hybrid mode) in between the existing one. The WDS
MAC address of the newly added AW5500C (in WDS Hybrid mode) should be MAC address
of the AW5500C that it is directly connecting to, not the MAC address of the AW5500C in
WDS Root mode. Note that AW5500C in WDS Station mode does not allow both wireless
client and AW5500C (in WDS Hybrid mode) to connect in. Normally it should be the last
AW5500C in the wireless topology if utilized.
