WDS Only Mode & WDS Hybrid Mode
Setup > Wireless Settings
Wireless bridging using WDS allows the modem router to create a wireless bridge with
other WDS supported wireless routers and access points configured in WDS mode to
bridge groups of network client devices together through a wireless bridge. In WDS
Hybrid Mode, the router will also function in access point mode allowing wireless client
devices such as computers, game consoles, mobile phones, etc. to connect in order to
access network resources from multiple groups of network devices as well as the
Internet, unlike WDS Only which strictly operates in wireless bridge mode only and does
NOT allow wireless client devices to connect.
Note: You can create up to four WDS bridge connections. WDS (Wireless Distribution
System) is not currently standardized and may not connect to different model wireless
routers or access points, therefore, when using WDS, it is recommended to use the same
model and version for wireless bridging.
To understand the difference between WDS Only and WDS Hybrid, please reference
diagrams provided.
Notice that in WDS Only mode, the wireless client devices (Laptop Computers) were
removed as the modem router will not allow wireless client devices to connect in this
mode and strictly operate in wireless bridge mode only.
In WDS Hybrid mode (Recommended), the modem router can operate in wireless bridge
mode and also allow wireless client devices to connect at the same time.
