\paragraph{Wireless Distribution System}
WDS is a non-standard mode which will be working between two Broadcom devices for instance
but not between a Broadcom and Atheros device.
\subparagraph{Unencrypted WDS connections}
This configuration example shows you how to setup unencrypted WDS connections.
We assume that the peer configured as below as the BSSID ca:fe:ba:be:00:01
and the remote WDS endpoint ca:fe:ba:be:00:02 (option bssid field).
\begin{Verbatim}
config wifi-device "wl0"
option type "broadcom"
option channel "5"
config wifi-iface
option device "wl0"
option network lan
option mode "ap"
option ssid "OpenWrt"
option hidden "0"
option encryption "none"
config wifi-iface
option device "wl0"
option network lan
option mode wds
option ssid "OpenWrt WDS"
option bssid "ca:fe:ba:be:00:02"
\end{Verbatim}
\subparagraph{Encrypted WDS connections}
It is also possible to encrypt WDS connections. \texttt{psk}, \texttt{psk2} and
\texttt{psk+psk2} modes are supported. Configuration below is an example
configuration using Pre-Shared-Keys with AES algorithm.
\begin{Verbatim}
config wifi-device wl0
option type broadcom
option channel 5
config wifi-iface
option device "wl0"
option network lan
option mode ap
option ssid "OpenWrt"
option encryption psk2
option key "<key for clients>"
config wifi-iface
option device "wl0"
option network lan
option mode wds
option bssid ca:fe:ba:be:00:02
option ssid "OpenWrt WDS"
option encryption psk2
option key "<psk for WDS>"

\paragraph{Adding a new driver configuration}
Since we currently only support two different wireless drivers : Broadcom and Atheros,
Since we currently only support thread different wireless drivers : Broadcom, Atheros and mac80211,
you might be interested in adding support for another driver like Ralink RT2x00,
Texas Instruments ACX100/111.
