11a/b/g Wireless Multi-Client Bridge/AP/WDS
Version 1.0
multiple markets. Enable this feature if you are traveling and operating in several
regulatory domains. By default, this value is disabled.
Transmit Power: You may control the output power of the device by selecting a
value from the drop-down list. This feature can be helpful in restricting the coverage
area of the wireless network.
WDS: Place a check in this box to enable WDS (Wireless Distribution System).
When WDS is enabled, this access point functions as a wireless repeater and is able
to wirelessly communicate with other APs via WDS links.
Note that WDS is incompatible with WPA -- both features cannot be used at the
same time. A WDS link is bidirectional; so this AP must know the MAC Address
(creates the WDS link) of the other AP, and the other AP must have a WDS link back
to this AP. Make sure the APs are configured with same channel number.
WDS AP MAC Address: Specify one-half of the WDS link. The other AP must also
have the MAC address of this AP to create the WDS link back to this AP.
Click on the Save Settings button once you have modified the settings.

Ensure that you have downloaded the appropriate firmware from the vendor's
website. Connect the device to your PC using an Ethernet cable, as the firmware
cannot be upgraded using the wireless interface.
