Wireless Bridge

PiKe · 3 Jul 2008 at 14:55

I have a wired Ethernet device I want to make wireless, from my understanding I need a WDS enabled Wifi Bridge, I currently have a Billion 7402VGP which supports WDS also, am I on the right lines here or am I way off the mark?

If it's just going to play wireless client, you don't need WDS.

The device needs a setting doesn't it for that? This is what I was looking at...

I set-up a bridge using two routers running dd-wrt... worked great... this was without WDS

My only option would be to use WDS if I can't find a cheap client bridge.

Am I right in thinking WDS enables it to act as both a bridge and ap/repeater simultaneously?
