In our example, we have used 192.168.1.150 for AP1 and 192.168.151 for AP2. If you are setting up from zero, then the default IP will be 192.168.0.50
You will need to make sure your LAN settings match your situation:
Our example is 192.168.1.150 and 192.168.1.151 therefore the LAN setting of the PC / Laptop will be of follows:
IP: 192.168.1.100
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1

If your setup is from zero, then the LAN setting should follow this example:
IP: 192.168.0.100
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.0.50

Configuration LAN of AP1:
IP: 192.168.1.150
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway IP Address: 192.168.1.1
DNS Server: 8.8.8.8 (Google DNS Servers)


Configuration LAN of AP2:
IP: 192.168.1.151
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway IP Address: 192.168.1.1
DNS Server: 8.8.8.8 (Google DNS Servers)

Step 4
– You should now be presented with the login prompt(s)

Click “Save” then Configuration > Save and Active and click “Active”

AP2:

 

Channel: 100(5500 MHz) – Remember this must be same for AP1
Channel Width: Auto 20/40 MHz
Extension Channel: Upper
Remote AP MAC Address: 70:62:B8:91:C6:AC (From AP1)
Authentication:
AES
AES Key: 100200300400500600

Click “Save” then Configuration > Save and Active and click “Active”

Step 9 – Remove the RJ45 cable from 10/100 DATA IN >> AP2

Once removed, you it may take a while to establish connection and reflect in the next step

Step 10 – To confirm the WDS connection has been established

AP1: Status > WDS Information


 
AP2: Status > WDS Information
 


Step 11 – AP2 - Enable “PoE PassThrough”Click Maintenance > PoE PassThrough

 

Select “Enable” then click “Save” 

Once complete, click “Save” then Configuration > Save and Active and click “Active”
