WDS
Wiring is headache and complex problem on the Networking environment all the time.
The Wireless Access Point solves the connection problem between end-users and the
backbone of the network. But it still is requiring establishing a wired backbone network
on this framework.
Wireless Distribution System (WDS), the technology provide a method that use
“Wireless” to take place of the wired backbone networking, allows several of the
access points to compose a wide Wireless LAN network. However, even if the general
business or home use, the access point with WDS function has decreased the
difficultly of the wired wiring. On the real network environment, it is still need to use
wired method to connect router and access point when they want to link ISP to
Internet.
In order to built an entire wireless solution to get rid of the wiring problem. Integrate the
technology of the WDS and Routers that connect the routers and access points
through the WDS has created the concept of the Wireless Distribution.
Advantage:
1. Convenience Environment: It gets rid of the wiring problem and allows all devices
to connect through the Wireless LAN except the connection between the ISP and
routers on the networking environment.
2. Strong expansibility: It can expand the network just add new access point directly
where needs to have the network
