The MAC address for MyAP1 (the access point you are currently
viewing) are displayed as the Local Address at the top of the page.
3. Configure a WDS interface for data exchange with MyAP2.
Start by entering the MAC address for MyAP2 as the Remote Address
and fill in the rest of the fields to specify the network (guest or internal),
security, and so on. Save the settings (click Update).
4. Navigate to the radio settings on the web pages (Advanced > Radio) to
verify or set the mode and the radio channel on which you want
MyAP1 to broadcast.
Remember that the two access points participating in the link, MyAP1
and MyAP2, must be set to the same Mode and be transmitting on the
same channel.
For our example, if you use IEEE 802.11b Mode and broadcasting on
Channel 6, you would choose Mode and Channel from the lists on the
Radio page.)
5. Now repeat the same steps for MyAP2:
 Open the web pages for MyAP2 by using MyAP2’s IP address in a
URL.
 Navigate to the WDS page in the MyAP2 web pages. (MyAP2’s
MAC address will show as the Local Address.)
 Configure a WDS interface for data exchange with MyAP1, starting
with the MAC address for MyAP1.
 Navigate to the radio settings for MyAP2 to verify that it is using the
same mode and broadcasting on the same channel as MyAP1.
(For our example Mode is 802.11b and the channel is 6.)
6. Be sure to save the settings by clicking Update.
