Title: WDS conenction between DSL-2640B and ZyXEL
Post by: ekardon on October 28, 2017, 02:50:55 PM

Hello,

I have two routers at home. One, which I use to connect to internet at the moment ZyXEL P-660HN-T1H, and the other one is a spare DSL-2640B rev:E1. None of both routers has enough range to cover whole house, so I wanted to connect them to each other wirelessly. I have done some digging and found that these two router have WDS functionality, therefore they can be conencted wirelessly.

The problem is that I cannot make them recognise each other. I have used this (http://"http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=59005.0") thread in this forum for DSL-2640B and this (http://"https://www3.truecorp.co.th/assets/files/files/WDS_Zyxel_P660HNT1A_V2_E.pdf") for ZyXEL. I tried both ways for D-Link router, as repeater and as AP. I just cannot figure it out.

Please help me on this. I really appreciate all the information.
Thanks in advance.

I don't think the DSL modem supports wireless bridging. The other configuration you could try is this:
