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.
