This tab is used for Wireless Distribution System (WDS).
WDS will ONLY work with SSID1. Make sure that the
channel and security settings are the same for all WDS
enabled devices.
WDS allows a wireless signal to be repeated by a repeater.
This mode allows a wireless client to connect to the Router
through a repeater, such as WAP54GP or WAP54GPE, when
operating in the Repeater Mode. This mode allows you to
extend the coverage of the Router by using up to three
repeaters. Select Auto Select to enable the remote access
point when operating in Repeater Mode or select Manual
and enter the MAC address of the repeater.
