Zone Flex R300 wds and bridge

Question

Hi,

we bought two Zone flex R300 for a customers of us.

I need to perform a wds connection in order to extend the wifi range.

One AP should act as standalone and the other in bridge mode.

Is it possibile?

Thaks in advance.

WDS Mode is enabled by default

rkscli: get wds-mode wlan0
wlan0 WDS Mode: Enabled

This means you could essentially get a device which could connect to the AP in WDS Bridge/STA mode and be able to rebroadcast traffic.

You cant however turn a r300 into a WDS Bridge/STA, so you would need another product for that

Smartcom,

I am afraid Zone flex AP's cannot be used as repeater. You Can return one of the R300 and get a repeater instead.
