Chapter 2: About
Operation Modes
Please go to the Wireless> WDS to set up the WDS function (Bridge or Repeater) of the Wireless
Router.
Gateway Mode
The wireless connection will be set up from a point-to-point local LAN into a point-to-multipoint
WAN. This device connects all the stations (PC/notebook with wireless function) to a wireless network.
All stations can have the Internet access if only the device has the Internet connection.
Bridge (WDS) Mode
The WDS (Wireless Distributed System) function lets this access point act as a wireless LAN access
point and repeater at the same time. Users can use this feature to build up a large wireless network in a
large space like airports, hotels and schools and so on. This feature is also useful when users want to
bridge networks between buildings where it is impossible to deploy network cable connections between
these buildings.
In this mode, all Ethernet ports and wireless interface are bridge together and NAT function is disabled.
All the WAN related function and firewall are not supported.
4
Wireless Distribution System uses wireless media to communicate with other APs, like the Ethernet
does. To do this, you must set these APs in the same channel and wireless MAC address to each other
APs that you want to communicate with.
Repeater (WDS+AP) Mode
If set to Repeater mode, a device connects to each other through an access point or a base station
(gateway or router.) This device can also work like a wireless station when it’s connected to a computer
directly, so that the computer can send packets from wired end to wireless interface.

If you cannot connect...
If the Wireless Router does not respond, check the following:
•The Wireless Router is properly installed, LAN connection is OK, and it is
powered ON. You can test the connection by using the "Ping" command:
•Please go to Start>Run…> Enter “cmd” command in the column to open the MS-DOS
window.
•Enter the command:
ping 192.168.1.1
If no response is received, either the connection is not working, or your PC's IP
address is not compatible with the Wireless Router's IP Address. (See next item.)
•If your PC is using a fixed IP Address, its IP Address must be within the range
192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254 to be compatible with the Wireless Router's default
IP Address of 192.168.1.1. Also, the Network Mask must be set to 255.255.255.0.
See Chapter 4 - PC Configuration for details on checking your PC's TCP/IP settings.
•Ensure that your PC and the Wireless Router are on the same network segment.
(If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)
•Ensure you are using the wired LAN interface. The Wireless interface can only
be used if its configuration matches your PC's wireless settings.
