Wireless Settings | WDS
WDS (Wireless Distribution System) is comprised of a
bridging and/or a repeater mode. Wireless bridging is where
the WDS APs communicate only with each other to bridge
together 2 separate networks (without allowing for wireless
clients or stations to access them). Wireless repeating is
where the WDS APs rebroadcasts the received signals to
extend reach and range (at the expense of half or more of
the throughput).
Enabling the WDS will enable wireless repeating.
