I am helping a friend remotely to prepare building a repeated wireless network by two idential AP’s which fully supports WDS.
AP1 is already connected to the Internet and serving clients, he is going to add AP2 into the house and configure WDS on them.
I read the manual and already figured out exaxtly how to set them up, but I have one additional question before telling him how to do this step by step — In order to preserve wireless bandwidth, enhance link quality, and reduce the possibility of failure, IS IT POSSIBLE these two AP’s can be linked together via ethernet cable instead of wireless?
I thought about pulling a cable between LAN ports on two devices, but I am not sure if this simple solution can totally replace wireless communication between two devices???
