WDS is better than "psuedobridge". After all, if you can create a "real" bridge, isn't that better than a "sort of" (psuedo) bridge? There are other options, but if you need to create a bridge over wireless, WDS is the lowest overhead option. >Problem with that, is if you change channels.. you need to sign >into every client radio and move them first. Couple of things to remember. First, you don't have to run WDS at every client just because one (or more) on an AP is running WDS. Secondly, if you use mode "station-wds", the client will follow frequency changes just like "normal" clients. -- ******************************************************************** *Butch Evans *Professional Network Consultation * *Network Engineering *MikroTik RouterOS * *573-276-2879 *ImageStream * *http://www.butchevans.com/ *StarOS and MORE * *Mikrotik Certified Consultant *Wired or Wireless Networks * ********************************************************************
