WDS with AP

In WDS with AP mode, the DWL-7100AP wirelessly connects multiple networks, while still functioning as a wireless AP. WDS (Wireless

Distribution System) allows access points to communicate with one another wirelessly in a standardized way. It can also simplify the

network infrastructure by reducing the amount of cabling required. Basically the access points will act as a client and an access point at

the same time.

Select IEEE802.11a or IEEE802.11g.

WDS with AP is selected from the drop-down

menu.

Service Set Identifier (SSID) is the name

designated for a specific wireless local area

network (WLAN). The SSID’s factory default

setting is dlink. The SSID can be easily changed

to connect to an existing wireless network or to

establish a new wireless network.
