Bridging
If you set the Zyxel Device as a root AP, the radio that’s bridging with the Zyxel Device
should be in repeater mode.
Be careful to avoid bridge loops. For example, if your root AP and the Zyxel Device are
connected to a switch, and they’re also connected to each other using a WiFi connection.
This will create bridge loops.
This field is available only when the radio is in Repeater mode. Select this to enable WDS
wireless bridging on the Zyxel Device. See Section 1.2 on page 12 for more information on
Wireless Distribution System (WDS).
