Wireless Bridging and Repeating

by

Buffalo's previous WBR-G54 is one of the few 802.11g routers to include WDS-based bridging and repeating and the WBR2 continues that tradition (Figure 10).

This time, I did try a quick repeating setup with an ASUS WL300g, and everything worked as expected. By the way, I liked that WBR2's wireless MAC address is displayed right on this page, since you'll need it to set up the WDS partners. But finding the MAC addresses of the WDS partners will be difficult (more on that later).

Tip: See our Setting up WDS Bridging / Repeating ProblemSolver if you want the 411 on getting this feature to work.
