It is used to detect information about nearby wireless signals of wireless devices,
including SSIDs, MAC addresses, network modes, signal bandwidth, channels, extension
channels, security modes, and signal strength.
The WDS function must be configured on all the APs to be bridged in WDS mode. All the APs must share the same
SSID, channel, security mode, and security key.
The APs to be bridged in WDS mode must be assigned different IP addresses belonging to the same network
segment.
Example Application of the WDS Mode
An AP has been installed in a hotel. Nevertheless, the signal of the AP is weak in some rooms because of limited
wireless coverage of the AP and blockage such as walls. As a result, guests in the rooms are unable to properly
access the internet through the AP.
To improve the signal in the other rooms, you can install one AP in each room and use the additional APs to
repeat the wireless signal of the original AP in WDS mode, so as to extend wireless coverage and enable guests in
the rooms to properly access the internet.
1-to-1 WDS bridging
The following figure shows the topology.
Procedure:
Step 1 Log in to the web UI of AP1 and check the basic information about AP1. Assume that AP1 has the basic
information described in the following table.
IP Address
SSID
Security Mode
Security Key (Wireless Network
Password)
192.168.0.254
Tenda_1
Mixed WPA/WPA2-PSK
87654321
Step 2 Log in to the web UI of AP2, change its IP address to an IP address that is different from the IP address
of AP1 but belongs to the same network segment of AP1, such as 192.168.0.253. For details, refer to
Section 4.3.1 "LAN Setup."
Step 3 Use the new IP address to log in to the web UI of AP2, and configure AP2 to repeat the wireless signal
of AP1 in WDS mode.
