enables the user to balance the transmit power at both the ends (END-A and END-B) of a
WDS link. To configure, select Enable or Disable from the drop down menu.
:
• If WDS optimization mode is enabled, WDS Cell Size Functionality is applied. (See
WDS Cell Size Functionality)
• If WDS optimization mode is disabled, AP Cell Size Functionality is applied. (See
Cell Size Functionality)
• When WDS Optimization Mode is enabled, WDS Cell Size Functionality is applied even
on the VAP enabled in AP mode.
In case of a WDS link (See
System) Mode), when the cell size is set from Large to
Micro, Mini, Small or Medium, the transmit power is
retained to the maximum value.
