WDS (Wireless Distribution System) Bridging feature allows you to bridge a router
with an access point to extend the wireless network coverage.

• WDS bridging function can be enabled either in 2.4GHz frequency or 5GHz frequency. The WDS function can work at only
one of the bands at one time.

LAN IP to an address from 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254.)
