6.1.3 WDS
A Wireless Distribution System (WDS) is a method of interconnecting access points (AP)
in a wireless local area network (WLAN) without requiring that they connect through a
wired backbone. This feature is usually used to extend the range of the wireless network
to reach remote clients.
The Wireless Router can be configured to operate in a WDS mode (Repeater Mode,
Bridge Mode or Lazy Mode) that allows it to forward traffic directly to other wireless
access points, repeaters or routers. Note that the Securtiy Mode, Channel and Channel
Width configured on the Wireless Router must match those on the remote AP, and their
LAN IP addresses must be on the same subnet.
6.1.3.1 Repeater Mode
If you want the Wireless Router to operate in repeater mode, please select Repeater
Mode from the Opeartion Mode drop-down list, see Figure 6-3. In this mode, the
Wireless Router can connect to other wireless network devices in bridge mode, repeater
mode or lazy mode, and at the same time it can provide connectivity for wireless clients.
