Tags: #WDS/Range Extender Mode
Model: Archer C50  
Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version: 0.9.1 0.2 v0093.0 Build 200608 Rel.66307n(4555)

Hi, have purchased a new Archer C50 V4 router to use it as an access point for my house.
 
I've tried configuring the C50 v4 as an access point, but I'm unable to find the option to enable WDS on the router. I recently updated hoping that the option appears on this version, but it's almost the same.  Even though your faq articles show that there's a WDS option in the 2.4Ghz wireless settings in this router options it doesn't appear.

 
Is there another way to enable WDS in this router?

Please help

Hello, can you find Range Extender mode on your Archer C50 web interface? If yes, then you can try to change it to the range extender mode, and it will connect to the main wireless via Wi-Fi, which performs just as the WDS function, thanks.
