Repeater function (WDS)

If you want to use a repeater in your wireless network in order to extend the range you
must activate the Wireless Distribution System (WDS) function.

ì

In the Advanced Settings - Wireless Network menu, choose Repeater (WDS).
All access points and repeaters in range are searched and displayed with SSID, MAC
address, channel and signal strength.

ì

Click Refresh to update the display.

ì

Click Add to choose a device as a repeater for your wireless network.

ì

Click Delete to remove a device from the list of repeaters.

ì

Click OK to apply the settings.

Note:

u

If you have activated MAC access control and want to use WPS, please note
that only clients already included in the MAC address list can register via WPS.

u

If you activate MAC access control, you must at least enter the PC from which
you are configuring the Gigaset SE366 WLAN. If you fail to do this, you will no
longer be able to access the user interface and an error message will be
shown.

u

If, by mistake, you have denied all PCs access to the Gigaset SE366 WLAN you
have two options:
– You can reset the Gigaset SE366 WLAN to the factory settings (see page 20).
– You can connect a PC to the Gigaset SE366 WLAN using one of the LAN con-

nections (by cable). Since MAC access control only applies to PCs that are
connected "wirelessly", you can use this PC to change the configuration.
