Operation Modes

There are four operating modes provided by the TEW-735AP, Access
Point, WDS Bridge, WDS, AP, and Universal Repeater. Configure the TEW-
735AP to different operation modes which best serve your network needs.

Access Point

This is the default operation mode. The TEW-735AP services wireless end
points in this mode. You can setup local or remote wireless authentication,
setup up to 4 sets of SSID and separation of SSID or STA traffic can be
configured.

WDS Bridge

When WDS mode is selected, the TEW735AP functions as a wireless
bridge and is able to wirelessly communicate to other WDS bridges to
make a wireless backbone. A WDS link is bidirectional; both end points
must support WDS and each access point must know the MAC Address of
the other. Each access point will be configured with the remote access
point's MAC address and vice versa. Make sure all access points are
configured with the same SSID, wireless channel and wireless encryption
settings.

WDS AP

This is a hybrid mode. The TEW735AP can be set as a WDS bridge and as
an access point at the same time.

Universal Repeater

When Repeater Mode is selected, the TEW-735AP functions as a wireless
repeater and is able to repeat the wireless signal of an access point. This
feature is used to expand your existing wireless network to areas your
current access point is unable to reach. Make sure all the settings of the
TEW-735AP match the wireless access points you want to repeat,
including the SSID, channel, and wireless encryption settings.
