WDS Bridge Mode
In WDS Bridge Mode, the Accesss Point can wirelessly connect different LANs by configuring the MAC address and security
settings of each Access Points. Use this operating mode when two wired LANs located a small distance apart want to
communicate with each other. The best solution is to use the Access Point to wirelessly connect two wired LANs, as
shown in the following diagram. 
WDS Bridge Mode can establish up to four (4) to eight (8) WDS links, creating a star-like network.
Note: WDS Bridge Mode does not act as an Access Point. Access Points linked by WDS are using the same frequency 
channel.  More  Access  Points  connected  together  may  lower  throughput.  This  configuration  can  be  susceptible  to
generate  endless  network  loops  in  your  network,  so  it  is  recommended  to  enable  the  Spanning  Tree  function  to
prevent this from happening.
