TRENDnet User's Guide Note: Before configuring WDS, please ensure the following first: 1. Make sure different IP addresses are assigned to each WDS supported wireless device used for bridging. (ex. 192.168.10.1,192.168.10.2, 192.168.10.3) to avoid IP address conflict. See page 38 for changing the LAN IP address. 2. If you are using more than one WDS supported router or access point, please make sure the LAN DHCP server is enabled on only one unit and disabled on all others to avoid IP address conflict. See page 38 for DHCP server options. 3. Assign a specific wireless channel and use the same channel on all WDS supported wireless devices. See page 18 for configuring basic wireless settings. 4. Configure the same wireless security and key on all WDS supported devices. See page 14 for configuring wireless security settings. To configure WDS bridging between TEW-718BRM / TEW-718BRM5 routers: 1. Log into your router management page (see "Access your router management page" on page 35). 2.

(e.g. 00:11:22:AA:BB:CC) Note: If the other WDS supported device is discoverable wirelessly, you can use the Scan Remote AP's MAC List to scan for the other WDS and copy the wireless MAC address from the discover list. 8. To save changes, click Apply. Note: If you would like to discard the changes, click Undo before you click Apply. 4.
