The R6200 router is always in dual band concurrent mode, unless you turn off one radio. If

you enable the wireless repeater in either radio band, the wireless base station or wireless

repeater cannot be enabled in the other radio band. However

, if you enable the wireless base

station in either radio band and use the other radio band as a wireless router or wireless base

station, dual band concurrent mode is not affected.

To set up a wireless network with WDS, both access points have to meet the following

conditions:

• Both access points have to use the same SSID, wireless channel, and encryption mode.

• Both access points have to be on the same LAN IP subnet.

That is, all the access point

LAN IP addresses are in the same network.
