Wireless N300 High power Router WDS Bridge Mode Wireless distribution system (WDS) is a system enabling the wireless interconnection of access points in an IEEE 802.11 network. It allows a wireless network to be expanded using multiple access points without the traditional requirement for a wired backbone to link them. Note: The Access Points you select must support WDS. For example: As seen in the figure above, PC1 and PC2 access the Internet via a wireless connection to Router 1. While PC3 and PC4 are too far to directly connect to Router 1 for Internet access. Now you can use the WDS bridge feature to let PC3 and PC4 access the Internet. Before you get started: 1. View and note down the wireless security settings: security mode, cipher type, security key, etc. on Router 1; Click Status>LAN Settings and check the IP address. 2. Click Wireless>Wireless Basic Settings to check router one's wireless basic settings. 2. 8
