Firstly i configure wireless config as below:

config wifi-device 'wifi0'
        option type 'qcawifi'
        option macaddr '00:01:11:00:01:00'
        option hwmode '11ng'
        option txpower '17'
        option htmode 'HT20'
        option disabled '0'
        option channel '1'

config wifi-iface
        option device 'wifi0'
        option mode 'ap'
        option ssid 'Testing_ap'
        option network 'lan'
        option encryption 'psk2'
        option key 'Testing_ap'

so its SSID was showing and able to connect any device to it.

Then i scan the device and connect to one of it. While joining the network
i selected Client(WDS) then the wireless config becomes like below:

config wifi-device 'wifi0'
        option type 'qcawifi'
        option macaddr '00:01:11:00:01:00'
        option hwmode '11ng'
        option txpower '17'
        option htmode 'HT20'
        option disabled '0'
        option channel '1'

config wifi-iface
        option network 'wwan'
        option ssid 'D_Link_Router'
        option encryption 'psk2'
        option device 'wifi0'
        option mode 'sta'
        option key 'Dlink_Router'
        option wds '1'

Then  i added one as shown in the video. Now its connected to router also
and this add one also showing so i can connect to this also.

But i am not getting how to keep this in default wireless config.

Because every time we cant add one to configure like this. It should be
like default should be in ap mode so any device we can connect, if its
connected to another router also that SSID still should be visible and able
to connect to this.
