6.3 Coverage Range Extender Setup

Extending from the above scenario, if the distance needs to be further extended, it is always

possible to add more AW5500C (in WDS Hybrid mode) in between the existing one. The WDS

MAC address of the newly added AW5500C (in WDS Hybrid mode) should be MAC address

of the AW5500C that it is directly connecting to, not the MAC address of the AW5500C in

WDS Root mode. Note that AW5500C in WDS Station mode does not allow both wireless

client and AW5500C (in WDS Hybrid mode) to connect in. Normally it should be the last

AW5500C in the wireless topology if utilized.

Figure 6.3

For more information on how to configure your AW5500C for this topology, please refer to

WDS Bridge Mode

Note: wireless coverage is dependent on the environment.
