Wireless bridging using WDS (Wireless Distribution System) Advanced > Wireless (2. 4GHz or 5GHz) > WDS Wireless bridging using WDS allows the device to create a wireless bridge with other WDS supported wireless routers and access points configured in WDS mode to bridge groups of network devices together wirelessly. Simultaneously, the router will also function in access point mode allowing wireless client devices such as computers, game consoles, mobile phones, etc. to connect in order to access network resources from multiple groups of network devices as well as the Internet. All Rights Reserved. In the diagram below, the blue color represents the WDS wireless bridged connections between the routers. The green color represents access point mode connections between wireless client devices and the routers. Note: Before configuring WDS, please ensure the following first: 1. Make sure different IP addresses are assigned to each WDS supported wireless device used for bridging. 192. 168. 10. 1, 192. 168. 10. 2, 192. 168. 10. 3) to avoid IP address conflict. If you are using more than one WDS supported router, please make sure the LAN DHCP server is enabled on only one and disabled on all others to avoid IP address conflict. Configure the same wireless channel and use the same on all WDS supported wireless devices. Configure the same wireless security and key on all WDS supported devices. See page 15 for configuring wireless security settings. 31 TRENDnet User’s Guide Additional wireless settings To configure WDS bridging between TEW-812DRU routers: 1. Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page” on page 16). Advanced > Wireless (2. 4GHz or 5GHz) > Advanced TEW-812DRU These settings are advanced options that can be configured to change advanced wireless broadcast specifications. It is recommended that these settings remain set to their default values unless you are knowledgeable about the effects of changing these values. Select wireless band you would like to configure, Wireless 2. 4GHz or Wireless 5GHz and click on WDS. To configure multiple SSID on your router: 1. Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page” on page 16). Next to Wireless Distribution System (WDS), in an empty field, enter the MAC address of the other WDS supported wireless device you are bridging. Select wireless band you would like to configure, Wireless 2. 4GHz or Wireless 5GHz and click on Multiple SSID. 4. For additional routers, make sure to disable the DHCP server first on all additional routers and configure the LAN IP address to be different on each router. You will connect devices to the LAN ports 1-4 only on all additional routers and the WAN port is not used. Then, repeat the steps for additional routers you are bridging. © Copyright 2013 TRENDnet.
