You can extend the range in your wireless network using
WDS (Wireless Distribution System). For this you need an-
other WLAN access point in addition to the FRITZ!Box. One
of the two WLAN access points works as the base station,
the other as a repeater. The base station and repeater are
connected to each other via WLAN. The base station then
can use the repeater to reach even computers that would
be located beyond its range without the repeater.
WDS: Expanding the WLAN range using a repeater
Please note:
In order to expand the range of your wireless net-
work, you need at least one additional WLAN access
point. The wireless network of your FRITZ!Box can be
expanded to a WDS (Wireless Distribution System)
with up to four WLAN access points.
