No, you do not need WDS repeater. These radios are not designed for 3 way communication. Not enough memory or processing power. They are made for 2 way communication and that is why the UBNT firmware has no repeater options. The proper way to satisfy your needs is to add a third radio at the remote site to re-broadcast the signal on a different channel. _________________ http://69.175.13.131:8015 Streaming Week-End Disco.

Yes i need! I know, how is propher way, but...
Once again, UBNT firmware has build WDS repeater (AP-Repeater), but with only Open or Wep security! PROOF See here:
This security is unaceptable for me. I not need full speed, me enough for example about 3 Mbit/s throughput for all on repeater side.
Ps: size and watt limitation is, why i need AP-Repeater (but with Wpa2 security) for this site. I think, many older devices (TL-WR841ND) have this functionality, but i need PB antena sensitivity and NOT REQUIRE high speed traffic.
I understand, WPA need more CPU time than WEP. Then i think, 3 Mbit/s throughput is enough for me.
This is, why i ask for, if ddwrt solve this ? I not test ddwrt on powerbeam until now

There is no way to fix the security problem. WDS and repeater modes do not support new security protocols. You cannot fix this security problem.
The only way to fix your project is to use an additional radio like I already suggested.
The Asus RT-N12 is a very good radio and it has support for DD-WRT. Price is only $30 US Dollars, new. From what I can see it is the only way to solve your problem and it is the cheapest way.
