MN 700 and WDS

Hello,

Apologies if this got posted twice (tried the web interface but it looks
like it did not work).

Need to know if the MN 700 router supports WDS.
Planning on getting the Airport express with air tunes and read about it
somewhere that it will connect to a device that support WDS.
Searched online and found contradicting answers

http://www.jiwire.com/microsoft-wire...t-review-1.htm
says it does

http://www.tomsnetworking.com/Produc...e-All-All-.php
says it doesn't.

Can someone tell me for certain.
The broadband networking help says nothing.

Thanx Chhil

It does not support WDS. (I tried anyway andI could not get WDS to
work with the MN-700. I've been able to get WDS to work between all
other broadcom based G devices - you can read about this in one of my
Expert Zone Columns. the MN-700 does not support this functionality.

Thanx Barb,

I found your article very useful.
What do you mean by broadcom based devices, are you talking chipsets?

Thanx Murtuza
