at a time. The default setting is 8.

Channel:

Select a channel or select

Auto

to let system automatically select one for your wireless network to operate on

if you are unsure. The best selection is a channel that is the least used by neighboring networks.

4.3.2 Security

This page allows you to configure security features of the wireless LAN interface. You may setup configuration

manually OR through WiFi Protcted Setup (WPS).

WPS Setup

Wi-Fi Protected Setup makes it easy for home users who know little of wireless security to establish a home network, as

well as to add new devices to an existing network without entering long passphrases or configuring complicated settings.

Simply enter a PIN code on the device web interface or press hardware WPS button (on the back panel of the device) and

a secure wireless connection is established.

WPS Button:

Press the hardware WPS button on the device for 1 second and the WPS LED will keep blinking for about

2 minutes. Within the 2 minutes, press the WPS button on your wireless computer or other device. When the WPS

displays a solid light, the device has joined your wireless network.

PIN:

To use this option, you must know the PIN code from the wireless client and enter it in the corresponding field on

your device while using the same PIN code on client side for such connection.

Enable WPS:

Check/uncheck to enable/disable the WPS function. It is enabled by default.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Note:

1. To use the WPS security, the wireless client must be also WPS-capable.

2. When both STA PIN and Authorized MAC are empty, PBC is used. If Hide Access Point enabled or Mac filter list is

empty with "allow" chosen, WPS2 will be disabled.

4.3.4 Wireless Bridge

This page allows you to configure wireless bridge

(also known as Wireless Distribution System)

features of the wireless

LAN interface.

Wireless distribution system (WDS) is a system enabling the wireless interconnection of access points in an IEEE 802.11

network. It allows a wireless network to be expanded using multiple access points without the traditional requirement for

a wired backbone to link them.

AP Mode:

You can select Wireless Bridge (also known as Wireless Distribution System) to disable access point

functionality. Selecting Access Point enables access point functionality. Wireless bridge functionality will still be

available and wireless stations will be able to associate to the AP.

Bridge Restrict:

There are three options available: Enabled, Enabled (Scan) and Disabled. Select Disabled in Bridge

Restrict which disables wireless bridge restriction. Any wireless bridge will be granted access. Selecting Enabled or

Enabled (Scan) enables wireless bridge restriction. Only those bridges selected in Remote Bridges will be granted access.

The Enabled (Scan) enables wireless bridge restriction and automatically scans the remote bridges.

Remote Bridges

MAC Address:

Specify the MAC address of the remote bridge. If you select the Enabled (Scan) option in Bridge

Restrict, system automatically scans the remote bridges and you only need to select those bridges and their MAC

addresses will be added to automatically.

Refresh:

Click to update the remote bridges. Wait for few seconds to update.

Apply/Save:

Click to apply and save the settings.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Note:

The WDS feature (also known as Wireless Bridge) can only be implemented between 2 WDS-capable wireless devices.

Plus, SSID, channel, security settings and security key must be exactly the same on both such devices.
