WDS (Wireless Distribuon System)
Wireless Distribuon System, WDS, creates a wireless
backbone link between mulple access points that are
part of the same wireless network. This allows a wireless
network to be expanded using mulple access points
without the need for a wired backbone. TEW-753DAP
WDS operaon has three sub modes: WDS Access Point,
WDS Bridge, or WDS Staon
WDS Access Point
The wireless interface connects to other WDS bridge
enable devices for backbone communicaon and provides
wireless connecon to clients (STAs) at the same me.
WDS Bridge
The wireless interface connects ONLY to other WDS bridge
enabled devices and local networks (the other wireless
interface and Ethernet interface) as a wireless backbone
bridge.
WDS Staon
The wireless interface connects to other WDS bridge
enabled devices for backbone communicaon and
connects to other wireless access points at the same me.
Use this mode to pair with the next hop access point as a
WDS network outlet.
* Only one bridge can be setup on 2.4GHz or 5GHz band, but not both.
