Increasing the Range of the WLAN Connection

WDS: Expanding the WLAN range using a WDS repeater
Note the following for WDS configuration:
• All WLAN base stations implemented in the WDS must
support WDS and be configured for this technology.
• All WLAN base stations implemented as repeaters in the
WDS must be located within the radio range of the WDS
base station.
• The FRITZ!Box can function as a WDS base station to es-
tablish the Internet connection for other WDS repeaters,
or as a WDS repeater to expand the range of a WDS base
station.
• All WDS connections between the WDS base station and
the WDS repeaters must be secured using the same en-
cryption (e.g. WPA/WPA2). Note that the WPA2 encryp-
tion method is available only when your network con-
sists of AVM devices, since in the WLAN standard only
WEP encryption has been specified for WDS connec-
tions.
• All WLAN base stations in the WDS must use the same
radio channel.
• Every WLAN base station participating in the WDS fulfills
the tasks of a WLAN access point for its WLAN clients.
This means that the WLAN clients see each WLAN base
station with an individual name (SSID) and individual
encryption settings.
If you use the WLAN control software provided in
Windows 7, Windows Vista or by the Windows XP Ser-
vice Pack 2 on your WLAN clients, you can assign the
same SSID and the same encryption settings to different
