to communicate with each other. The best solution is to use the EnStationAC to wirelessly connect two wired LANs, as

WDS Bridge Mode can establish up to four WDS links, creating a star-like network.
Note: WDS Bridge Mode does not act as an Access Point. Access Points linked by WDS are using the same frequency

generate endless network loops in your network, so it is recommended to enable the Spanning Tree function to
prevent this from happening.
