11 WDS Repeater Mode Refer to the illustration below. While acti ng as Bridges, AP1 (with Station 1 being associated to) and AP2 (with Station 2 being associated) can communicate with each other through wireless interface (with WDS).
12 Client Mode (Infrastructure) If set to Client (Infrastruct ure) mode, this device can work like a wireless station when it’s connected to a computer so th at the computer can send packets from wired end to wireless interface. Refer to the illust ration below.
13 Client Mode (Ad-hoc) If set to the Client (Ad-hoc) mode, this device can work like a wireless station when it is connected to a computer so that the computer can send packets from wired end to wireless interface. You can share files and printers between wireless stations (PC and laptop with wireless network adapter installed).
14 WDS Bridge Mode The WDS (Wireless Distributed System) func tion let this access point acts as a wireless LAN access point and repeater at the same time. Users can use this feature to build up a large wireless netwo rk in a large space like airports, hotels and schools …etc.
