  • hey .. i got a question..

    if you got 6 Ap which having WDS function and all are enable the bridge function but after everything configure done.. why the Client cannot get any IP from the Router ? as i know if we enable the WDS function.. the wireless signal will reduce to 50% .. correct me if i am wrong....

    pls advise me...

  • Dear Mr.
    the WDS is a wireless distribution system and it can connect your 6 ap's with each other by entering the mac address in each ap, so you must enter the 6 mac address to connect with each other and get IP's
