Wireless Distribution System
You can set the router up to be used as a wireless base station or a wireless repeater in a
wireless distribution system (WDS).
Note: To use the wireless repeating function, you must select the None
radio button as the security option in the Wireless Settings screen,
and you cannot select Auto Channel.
A WDS lets you expand a wireless network through multiple access points. A wireless base
station connects to the Internet, can have wired and wireless clients, and sends its wireless
signal to an access point that functions as a wireless repeater.
A wireless repeater can also
have wired and wireless clients, but connects to the Internet through the wireless base
station. The following figure shows a wireless repeating scenario.
