It doesn't look like you're using WDS at all.
Fist, you should have both wireless cards in Master mode, then you
should run wds_add $OTHER_AP_MAC in both cards so you get a wlan0wds0
interface in both cards and you should see Repeater mode in iwconfig,
then wds_type should be the same in both cards, etc... read the README,
it has an example on how to build a WDS link.
