For WiFi repeating, you must set up a WiFi base station and a WiFi repeater:
• WiFi base station.The access point functions as the parent access point that bridges traffic to and
from the child repeater access point.The base station also handles local WiFi and wired computers.To
configure this mode, you must know the MAC address of the child repeater access point. Often, the
MAC address is on the product label.
• WiFi repeater.The access point sends all traffic from its local WiFi or wired computers to a remote
access point.To configure this mode, you must know the MAC address of the remote parent access
point.
By default, the access point functions in dual-band concurrent mode. If you enable the WiFi repeater in
either radio band, the WiFi base station or WiFi repeater cannot be enabled in the other radio band. However,
if you enable the WiFi base station in either radio band and use the other radio band for either client access
or as a WiFi base station, dual-band concurrent mode is not affected.
Before you can set up a WiFi network with WDS, both access points must meet the following conditions:
• Use the same WiFi channel and WiFi security settings.
• Be on the same LAN IP subnet.That is, all of the access point LAN IP addresses are in the same
network.
• All LAN devices (wired and WiFi computers) are configured to operate in the same LAN network address
range as the access points.
Set Up the WiFi Base Station
The WiFi repeating function works only in hub and spoke mode. Units cannot be daisy-chained.You must
know the WiFi settings for all units.You must also know the MAC addresses of the remote units. First, set
up the base station, then set up one or more repeaters.
To set up the base station:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the access point or to
the access point directly through an Ethernet cable or WiFi connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
If you did not enable the DHCP client on the access point or did not assign a static IP address, enter
the default access point IP address 192.168.0.100.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the access point user name and password.
The user name is admin.The default password is password.The user name and password are
case-sensitive.
The Home page displays.
4. Make sure that the WiFi settings match the requirements for the WiFi repeating function.
For you to use the WiFi repeating function, you cannot use the auto channel feature for the access point
and the SSID broadcast must be enabled. We recommend that you use WPA2-PSK to secure the WiFi
communication for the WDS.
5. Select Advanced Setup > Wireless Repeating Function.
