Ghz Wi-F Settings: Wds - Amped Wireless REB175P User Manual

REB175P USER'S GUIDE

2.4GHz Wi-F Settings: WDS

WDS Settings are only available in the WDS-Bridge (WDS-
Bridge) operational mode. If you are not using the WDS-
Bridge operational mode please disregard this section. WDS
mode allows the Range Extender / Bridge to interconnect
with other WDS enabled Access Points (such as the Amped
Wireless APR175P ProSeries Wi-Fi Access Point/Router). WDS
allows you to extend your network by adding additional
wirelessly connected Range Extenders, also referred to as a
repeater, in addition to Bridges.
For WDS connections to work properly, the MAC address
associations must also be configured on each individual WDS
enabled Access Point or Bridge, not just the one you are currently configuring. For example, if you are
connecting two WDS-APs and one WDS-Bridge, AP 1 must have AP 2's and the Bridge's MAC address
conifgured, while AP 2 has AP 1's and the Bridge's MAC, and the Bridge has AP 1's and AP 2's MAC configured.
Every WDS connected device must also be using the same wireless channel as all other WDS connected
devices.
