The router supports two Ethernet IP addresses in the LAN, and two different LAN subnets
through which you can access the Internet at the same time. Users usually only have one
subnet in their LAN, so there is no need to configure a Secondary IP address. The default IP
address for the router is 192.168.1.254.
RIP:
RIP v1, RIP v2, RIP v1+v2 and RIP v2 Multicast.
The Subnet mask of the Secondary IP Address depends on the setting

AP. WDS takes advantages of cost saving and flexibility which no extra wireless client
device is required to bridge between two access points and extending an existing wired or
wireless infrastructure network to create a larger network.
In addition, WDS enhances its link connection security in WEP mode, WEP key encryption
must be the same for both access points.
