1.5.4 Bridge Infrastructure Mode


This mode is also known as "WDS Station" or "Client mode with MAC address
transparency". The Bridge Infrastructure mode can only connect with “Access Point”
mode. 2 Bridge Infrastructure can not connect with each other. It works like client mode
with MAC address transparency function. In another word, the MAC addresses of the PCs
will be passed instead of the AP's wireless MAC address. If you require Bridge connection
with WPA-PSK or WPA-PSK2 connection, please use this mode instead.

However, this

mode might not work with some outdoor APs. If it occurs, please use Client Infrastructure
or WDS Bridge instead.

Please see Chapter 8 for step-by-step application example of this

operation mode.
