Setting up a WDS
–
Subnet mask:
Enter in this filed, for instance, the
value “255.255.255.0”. This corresponds to the
FRITZ!Box subnet mask upon delivery.
–
Default gateway:
Enter the IP address of the WDS
base station here.
–
Primary DNS server:
Enter the IP address of the
WDS base station here.
–
Secondary DNS server:
Enter the IP address of a
second DNS server here.
11.
In the “Security” area define how the WDS repeater
connection should be encrypted.
12.
Enter a WLAN key.
13.
Click “Apply”.
The “Repeater Settings” window now displays all of
the settings you need to set up the WDS base station.
Also displayed is the current IP address of the
FRITZ!Box you just set up as a WDS repeater. You
must enter this IP address in the web browser to
open the FRITZ!Box user interface.
14.
We recommend printing out these settings.
This concludes the configuration of the FRITZ!Box as a
WDS repeater.
Note that the WPA2 encryption method is available
only when your network consists of AVM devices.
Then register the FRITZ!Box settings you printed out in the
WDS base station operating in your wireless network.

WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
The FRITZ!Box supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup). With
WPS you can create secure links between WLAN adapters
and your FRITZ!Box. All of the necessary WLAN security
settings are transferred in the process. You can use either
the push-button or the PIN method.
WPS with the Push Button Method
The push button method (WPS PBC) can be used if your
WLAN adapter is also equipped with a WPS button, or if
WPS can be enabled via the control software of the WLAN
adapter.
1.
Press the “WLAN” button on the FRITZ!Box and hold it
down for at least six seconds.
2.
As soon as the “WLAN” LED begins flashing, enable
the WPS function, either by pressing a WLAN button
or in the device’s user interface (depending on the
device). Activation must be started within two min-
utes.
The FRITZ!Box and the WLAN device now connect with
each other automatically. The WLAN device adopts the se-
curity settings of the FRITZ!Box.
WPS can be used only in combination with WLAN adapt-
ers that also support WPS. Consult the documentation of
your WLAN adapter to find out whether it supports WPS.

WPS with the PIN Method
WPS with the PIN Method
If your WLAN adapter supports WPS, but does not have a
button to start the push method nor any possibility to en-
able it in its control software, use the PIN method to es-
tablish the WLAN connection.
You can choose between two methods:
