P2P Bridge
In this mode, 2 access points in two remote locations connect to each other to provide a wireless bridge
between 2 remote LANs. It is mostly used by enterprise to connect 2 remote office’s network together. This
feature is also useful when users want to bridge networks between buildings where it is impossible to deploy
network cable connections between these buildings. The P2P Bridge should be connected by using WDS
Repeater. Below is an example to show you how to implement DW3512 with P2P Bridge.
LAN IP: 192.168.123.123
BSSID: 0001a8111111
DHCP Server: enable

¾
Step1: Power on DW3512-A and set one pc to connect with DW3512-A’s LAN. Set PC to
DHCP then PC should got an IP as 192.168.123.x by default.
¾
Step2: Enter 192.168.123.123 for the WEB interface of DW3512-A with no login ID and
password.
¾
Step3: Go to the page of Operation, set DW3512-A to Bridge mode. In this mode, all Ethernet
ports and wireless interface are bridged together and NAT function is disabled. All the WAN
related function and firewall are not supported.
¾
Step4: When Bridge mode is enabled, the WAN configuration is disabled, so please go to the

MAC address (BSSID) into the WDS table.
In DW3512-B:
¾
Step1: Power on DW3512-B and set one pc to connect with DW3512-B. Set PC to a Fixed IP,
such as 192.168.123.100.
¾
Step2: Enter 192.168.123.123 for the WEB interface of DW3512-B with no login ID and
