◆

WDS Mode — Selects the WDS mode of the SSID. (Options: Disable/

Lazy/Bridge/Repeater. Default: Disable)

■

Disable: WDS is disabled.

■

Lazy: Operates in an automatic mode that detects and learns WDS 

peer addresses from received WDS four-address format frame 

packets, without the need to configure a WDS MAC list entry. This 

feature allows the Wireless Broadband Router to associate with 

other Wireless Broadband Routers in the network and use their 

WDS MAC list. In Lazy mode the Wireless Broadband Router sends a 

beacon.

■

Bridge: Operates as a standard bridge that forwards traffic 

between WDS links (links that connect to other AP/wireless bridges, 

or units in Repeater or Lazy mode) and an Ethernet port. Only data 

destined for stations which are known to be on the peer Ethernet 

link, multicast data or data with unknown destinations, need to be 

forwarded through the WDS link. The Bridge mode does not 

transmit a beacon, unlike the other three modes. In this mode the 

Wireless Broadband Router may also function as a repeater. 

■

Repeater: Operates as a wireless repeater, extending the range for 

remote wireless clients and connecting them to an AP connected to 

the wired network. WDS peers must be registered with the Wireless 

Broadband Router. Repeater mode also supports the dual capability 

of the VAP functioning as an AP. In this mode, traffic is not 

forwarded to the Ethernet port from the radio interface. In Repeater 

mode the Wireless Broadband Router transmits a beacon.

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is designed to ease installation and activation 

of security features in wireless networks. WPS has two basic modes of 

operation, Push-button Configuration (PBC) and Personal Identification 

Number (PIN). The WPS PIN setup is optional to the PBC setup and 

provides more security. The WPS button on the Wireless Broadband Router 

can be pressed at any time to allow a single device to easily join the 

network.

The WPS Settings page includes configuration options for setting WPS 

device PIN codes and activating the virtual WPS button.
