Chapter 12 Set Up A Wifi Bridge - NETGEAR WAX610 User Manual

Set up a WiFi Bridge
This chapter describes how you can configure a wireless distribution system (WDS) that
consists of point-to-point WiFi bridge connections between two access points. Each
WiFi bridge connection requires a WDS profile for which the settings must match on
the access points that make up the bridge.
A WDS is not the same as a NETGEAR Insight Instant Mesh WiFi network, which requires
a root access point (see Install the Access Point in an Insight Instant Mesh WiFi Network
on page 40).
The chapter includes the following sections:
• WiFi base station, WiFi repeater, and WiFi bridge requirements
• Set up a WiFi bridge between access points
