points on the WDS link.
For example, to create a WDS link between a pair of access points named
MyAP1 and MyAP2 do the following:
1. Open the web pages for MyAP1, by entering the IP address for MyAP1
as a URL in the web browser address bar in the following form:
http:// IPAddressOfAccessPoint
where IPAddressOfAccessPoint is the address of MyAP1.
2. Go to the Wireless Distribution System page on the MyAP1 web
pages.
