Appendix A - Wireless Basics
Security
Don’t let you next-door neighbors or intruders connect to your wireless network. Secure your wireless network by turning
on the WPA or WEP security feature on the access point. Refer to product manual for detail information on how to set
it up.
There are basically two modes of networking:
•
Infrastructure
– All wireless clients will connect to an access point or wireless bridge.
•
Ad-Hoc
– Directly connecting to another computer, for peer-to-peer communication, using wireless network
adapters on each computer, such as two or more DAP-1555 wireless network Cardbus adapters.
An Infrastructure network contains an Access Point or wireless bridge. All the wireless devices, or clients, will connect
to the wireless bridge or access point.
An Ad-Hoc network contains only clients, such as laptops with wireless cardbus adapters. All the adapters must be in
Ad-Hoc mode to communicate.

Check your IP address
After you install your new D-Link adapter, by default, the TCP/IP settings should be set to obtain an IP address from a
DHCP server (i.e. wireless router) automatically. To verify your IP address, please follow the steps below.
Click on
Start
>
Run
. In the run box type
cmd
and click
OK
.
At the prompt, type
ipconfig
and press
Enter
.
This will display the IP address, subnet mask, and
the default gateway of your adapter.
If the address is 0.0.0.0, check your adapter
installation, security settings, and the settings
on your access point. Some firewall software
programs may block a DHCP request on newly
installed adapters.
If you are connecting to a wireless network at a hotspot (e.g. hotel, coffee shop, airport), please contact an employee
or administrator to verify their wireless network settings.

Statically Assign an IP address
If you are not using a DHCP capable gateway/access point, or you need to assign a static IP address, please follow
the steps below:
Step 1
Windows
®
XP - Click on
Start
>
Control Panel
>
Network Connections
.
Windows
®
2000 - From the desktop, right-click
My Network Places

Step 2
Right-click on the
Local Area Connection
which represents your D-Link network adapter and select
Properties
.
Step 3
Highlight
Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
and click
Properties
.
Step 4
Click
Use the following IP address
and enter an IP address that is on the same subnet as your network or the LAN
IP address on your access point.
Example: If the access point´s LAN IP address is 192.168.0.1, make your IP address
192.168.0.X where X is a number between 2 and 99. Make sure that the number
you choose is not in use on the network. Set Default Gateway the same as the LAN
IP address of your access point (192.168.0.1).
Set Primary DNS the same as the LAN IP address of your access point (192.168.0.1).
The Secondary DNS is not needed or you may enter a DNS server from your
ISP.
Step 5

Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g, 802.11a and Draft 802.11n specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and
environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental
conditions will adversely affect wireless signal range.
