AirLive AC.TOP User’s Manual 2

1. Introduction

1.4.2 WDS Repeater Mode

In WDS Repeater mode, the AC.TOP functions as a repeater that extends the range of

remote wireless LAN. In this mode, the remote Access Point must have WDS (Wireless

Distribution System) capability. If you require the PC’s MAC addresses to be preserved

when the data pass through the Repeater, it is necessary to use the WDS Repeater mode.

Because the radio is divided into WDS + AP mode, the Repeater mode will have less

performance and distance.
