Important Notes:
All Access Points must be configured on the same radio frequency.
Specify SSID for AP/STA modes.
SSID and Encryption is not inherited from the main network page.
Each WDS interface can be configured with a different encryption algorithm; however each side of a single
WDS link must specify the same encryption algorithm and keys.
A maximum of 3 virtual AP or 5 virtual Client/STA applies per unit.
WDS Connections:
Add Entry Button
Add an entry to the WDS Connections table. This adds a virtual station to the
device.
Delete Entry Button
Delete the currently selected entry in the WDS Connections table. To select a row,
click anywhere in the row with the mouse, to highlight the entire row.
Connection Mode
Specify the connection mode for this link.
AP (Downlink) configures the connection as a virtual Access Point.
Sta (Uplink) configures the connection as a virtual Station/Cient.
SSID
AP Mode: Specify the SSID that this virtual access point will use. Stations
connecting to this virtual access point use this SSID.
Sta Mode: Specify the SSID that this virtual station will use when connecting to
other access points.
Encryption
Select the required Encryption (if any) for this WDS link.
Encryption Key
Enter the Encryption key (for WEP encryption) or the passphrase (for WPA
encryption). For WEP encryption, the encryption key is set as WEP Key 1. For Sta
Mode, this must match WEP Key 1 on the Access point this virtual client will
connect to. For AP mode, clients must configure their WEP Key 1 to the same value
as this key and select the Default WEP Key to be WEP Key 1.
There are many different ways to setup wireless networks; often it depends on the devices you wish to connect and the
existing network topology.
The following pages show some examples of how to connect devices into different types of systems.
