WDS option not available?
2022-02-04 08:25:09
Model: Archer C20  
Hardware Version: V5
Firmware Version: 0.9.1 4.17 v0001.0 Build 200915 Rel.56357n(5553)

I want to connect my tenda router wirelessly and it needs WDS. But I am not able to find WDS option in my tp link router. So I want to know whether this model has WDS option available or not?

You should have Range Extender in Operation Mode:

 

 

Here's how to configure C20 in Range Extender mode.

Obviously I misunderstood your intention.

When building a WDS only the extended device needs to be configured.

In your case configuration for WDS should be made on your Tenda router only.

If that doesn't work you can swap the routers - set your Tenda as a main router and set the Archer C20 in RE mode.

Model: Archer C6

Hardware Version: V3.20

Firmware Version: 1.0.10 Build 20210513 rel.63256(5553)

 

Root/Main Router - GX Earth 4222

 

I dont have any issue in searching the 5GHz network on the survey but wds function is not working on 5GHz it works on 2.4GHz but only till the router is rebooted. 

 

"I went to "System Tools -> System Parameters -> 5GHz WDS", then I opened "Developer tools" in Chrome (CTRL+SHIFT+I) and searched for "wds_mode_5g". 
I see that the enclosing div container is hidden in the new firmware, thus I enabled it with deleting the "hidden" from the "class". I set the "WDS mode" to "WDS1" from "Auto", reboot C6 and everything started to work"  I saw this comment on some other post, I dont have the WDS mode setting enable on the router page I have tried to do what is mentioned above but it does not work not able to get the option to enabled it, I have got the router replaced but having the same issue 

 

Any help in this matter will be gr8
