Creating a Wireless Bridge (WDS)
Wireless > Basic
Note: Since wireless bridge (WDS) is a subset of Access Point mode, please make sure
that Access Point mode is selected under Main > Device Mode for all access points. See
page 13 “Set your device to access point mode.” This procedure can apply for both WDS
and WDS+AP modes.
To configure a wireless bridge (WDS) between two TEW-750DAP access points:
• Make note of the wireless MAC address of both access points. See page XX for
checking the status page.
Note: Please note that 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands will have two different MAC
addresses. If using the 2.4GHz band wireless MAC address, please use the
2.4GHz wireless MAC address for all other WDS supported devices to bridge and
if using the 5GHz band wireless MAC address, use the 5GHz wireless MAC
address for all other WDS supported devices to bridge.
Example:
AP1 (Access Point 1) 2.4GHz Wireless MAC Address: 00:11:22:AA:BB:C1
AP1 (Access Point 1) 5GHz Wireless MAC Address: 00:11:22:AA:BB:C2
AP2 (Access Point 2) 2.4GHz Wireless MAC Address: 00:11:22:AA:BB:C3
AP2 (Access Point 2) 5GHz Wireless MAC Address: 00:11:22:AA:BB:C4
• Make sure the IP address on each WDS supported access is point is different
and on the same IP network/subnet. See page XX for changing access point IP
address.
Example:
AP1 (Access Point 1) IP Address Settings: 192.168.10.100 / 255.255.255.0
AP2 (Access Point 2) IP Address Settings: 192.168.10.99 / 255.255.255.0
AP1 Configuration
1. Log into your access point management page (see “
Access your access point
management page” on page 11).
2. Click on Wireless, click on Basic and scroll down to Wireless Network Settings -
(2.4GHz or 5GHz). Note: For this example, 2.4GHz band will be used.
3. Click the Device Operation Mode drop-down list and select one of following WDS
options.
• WDS – Select this option to establish wireless bridging only without
broadcasting your wireless network name for client devices to connect. Please
refer to the section Wireless Bridge (WDS) Mode
page 21 for details on this
mode.
• WDS+AP (Recommended) – Select this option to establish wireless bridging
and broadcast your wireless network name for client devices to connect
simultaneously. See page 23 for details. Please refer to the section
Wireless
Bridge (WDS) with Access Point (AP) Mode on page 23 for details on this mode.
