Wireless Configuration – Wireless Repeater Mode
Due to built-in internal directional patch antenna, repeater mode does not
apply in WH-5400CPE. This operation mode is reserved for future application.
When set the Access Point to Repeater mode, the AP is able to talk with one
remote access point within its range and retransmit its signal. In order to setup
the AP to work in Ethernet bridge mode, you need to choose “Repeater” mode
and click “Apply” at System Properties page. After need to reboot the AP to
make sure the AP work in repeater mode.
After enable the repeater mode, you can click on “Wireless Network” and
choose “Site Survey” to pick one of the SSIDs you would like to retransmit its
signal. (Please be aware that while using the repeater mode, the throughput
performance maybe nearly only half compare with access point mode. Because
the repeater needs to communicate with original AP and also the clients
associate to the repeater at the same time.)
