TEW-841APBO Basic Installation and WDS
Configuration (5GHz WDS Bridge & 2.4GHz AP)
The following installation procedure is for configuring two TEW-841APBO's as Omni-
directional access points, wirelessly bridged to each other using WDS link.
This example configuration uses the 5GHz radio as a dedicated WDS Bridge backhaul,
with the 2.4GHz radio configured as a standard access point for client connections.
Note:
1. The initial configuration should be done in a testing environment with the
two TEW-841APBO access points approximately 15 ft. (5 m) apart from one
another.
2. It is strongly recommended to configure and connect the access points prior
to mounting them in their intended locations.
3. In this example, we will configure the two access points to establish a WDS
bridge using the 5GHz radio, while leaving the 2.4GHz radio standard 802.11
for client connections.
Note: This example installation procedure will be demonstrated using the following
example network information:
Router/Default Gateway IP Address: 192.168.10.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Using the above information, we will configure the TEW-841APBO access points
will be configured with the following settings:
IP Address
Netmask (Subnet Mask)
IP Gateway (Default Gateway)

Note the WiFi MAC Addresses

1. Write down the 5GHz MAC address (WiFi 5GHz) of both the TEW-841APBO #1 and
TEW-841APBO #2 access points. The MAC address can be found on the label on the
back of the access point.
Note: In this installation procedure example, we will assume the following for the 5GHz
WiFi MAC addresses:
