WDS Settings
Wireless Distribution System (WDS) allows you to use the Access Point to wirelessly

connect to other Access Points. In WDS mode, the Access Point can function as a Main

Access Point which is connected to a network using a cable, or it can be a Relay Access

Point which is wirelessly connected to the Main Access Point.

To configure WDS mode you will need to adjust the settings for the following fields:
a) Enable WDS: First you must enable the WDS function to use it.
b) MAC Address: Enter the MAC address of the Access Point that you wish to connect

to. If you are configuring the Main Access Point then you would need to enter the

Relay Access Point’s MAC Address here.

c) Comment: Provide a comment, such as “Main Access Point” to easily remember

which Access Point belongs to which MAC Address entry.

d) Band: Select the wireless band you wish to operate on.
e) Wireless Network (SSID): Enter the wireless SSID of your Access Point. Do not use the

same SSID for two separate Access Points.
