Chapter 5 Configuring the Wireless-G Router This tab is used for Wireless Distribution System (WDS). WDS will ONLY work with SSID1. Make sure that the channel and security settings are the same for all WDS enabled devices. WDS allows a wireless signal to be repeated by a repeater. This mode allows a wireless client to connect to the Router through a repeater, such as WAP54GP or WAP54GPE, when operating in the Repeater Mode. This mode allows you to extend the coverage of the Router by using up to three repeaters. Select Auto Select to enable the remote access point when operating in Repeater Mode or select Manual and enter the MAC address of the repeater. Click the Site Survey button to view the available access points. When you have finished making changes to the screen, click Save Settings to save the changes, or click Cancel Changes to undo your changes. For help information, click More.
