Introduction to common router functions and bridging

The function of a universal router is described as a bridge (WDS). Its function is as follows: currently, most of the houses are steel reinforced concrete structures. The attenuation of wireless signals is serious, and the layout of the company is complex, it also makes wireless signals unable to cover every solution. Therefore, we can place a wireless router with poor signal, and achieve blind-spot coverage of wireless signals through WDS connection. Here, we use A Universal Wireless Router as an example to introduce how to connect to WDS. Assume that there are two AB wireless routers, and A wants to connect to B through WDS. Www.2cto.com I. Wireless Router B sets wireless router B as the broadband access point. First, we must set the Internet access mode. This is certainly the case for everyone, enter the account password provided by the broadband provider. The password is not too long here. The Internet settings are complete. I will configure WDS below. 1. log on to wireless router B and set the SSID and channel in Wireless Settings-Basic settings.

(1) SSID: The SSID of the two wireless routers should be the same, so that no matter where the notebook is, you can directly access the Internet without resetting it. (2) channel: the channels used for creating wireless routers of WDS networks must be the same. Therefore, you must manually set the channels to ensure that the same channels are used. 2. for wireless encryption, set the wireless signal password in Wireless Settings-wireless security settings.

Wireless Security: the passwords of the two wireless routers must be the same, and the encryption algorithms should be the same. 2. Set wireless router B above for wireless router A. Next we will set wireless router. 1. LAN port: Modify the IP address of the LAN port and the IP address of the wireless router B in the same CIDR block. Save and restart the router. Www.2cto.com

2. log on to wireless router A again and enable WDS in Wireless Settings-Basic settings.

3. WDS: Click scan to search for wireless signals.

4. In the signal list, select Router B's SSID and click Connect.

5. Set the channel, key type, and key here to be the same as that of wireless router B.

6. You must disable the DHCP server. Otherwise, an error occurs in IP Address allocation.

Here, the WDS between wireless routers has been set up. If there are other wireless routers that want WDS, this is an example.
