Using Windows® XP
Windows®
XP users may use the built-in wireless utility (Zero Configuration Utility). The following instructions are for Service Pack 2 users.
If you are
using another company’s utility or Windows® 2000, please refer to the user manual of your wireless adapter for help with connecting to a wireless
network. Most utilities will have a “site survey” option similar to the Windows® XP utility as seen below.
Right-click on the wireless computer icon in your system tray (lower-right corner
next to the time). Select
View Available Wireless Networks
.
If you receive the
Wireless Networks Detected
bubble, click on the center of the
bubble to access the utility.
or
The utility will display any available wireless networks in your area. Click on a
network (displayed using the SSID) and click the
Connect
button.
If you get a good signal but cannot access the Internet, check you TCP/IP settings
for your wireless adapter. Refer to the
Networking Basics
section in this manual
for more information.

Troubleshooting
This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and operation of the DHP-1565.
Read the following descriptions
if you are having problems. The examples below are illustrated in Windows
®
XP.
If you have a different operating system, the screenshots on your
computer will look similar to the following examples.
1. Why can’t I access the web-based configuration utility?
When entering the IP address of the D-Link router (192.168.0.1 for example), you are not connecting to a website nor do you have to be connected
to the Internet. The device has the utility built-in to a ROM chip in the device itself. Your computer must be on the same IP subnet to connect to
the web-based utility.
• Make sure you have an updated Java-enabled web browser. We recommend the following:
- Microsoft Internet Explorer
®
6.0 and higher
- Mozilla Firefox 3.0 and higher
- Google
Chrome 2.0 and higher
- Apple Safari 3.0 and higher
• Verify physical connectivity by checking for solid link lights on the device. If you do not get a solid link light, try using a different cable or
connect to a different port on the device if possible. If the computer is turned off, the link light may not be on.
• Disable any Internet security software running on the computer. Software firewalls such as Zone Alarm, Black Ice, Sygate, Norton Personal
Firewall, and Windows
®
XP firewall may block access to the configuration pages. Check the help files included with your firewall software
for more information on disabling or configuring it.

• Configure your Internet settings:
• Go to
Start
>
Settings
>
Control Panel
. Double-click the
Internet Options
Icon. From the
Security
tab, click the button to restore
the settings to their defaults.
• Click the
Connection
tab and set the dial-up option to Never Dial a Connection. Click the LAN Settings button. Make sure nothing
is checked. Click
OK
.
• Go to the
Advanced
tab and click the button to restore these settings to their defaults. Click
OK
three times.
• Close your web browser (if open) and open it.
• Access the web management. Open your web browser and enter the IP address of your D-Link router in the address bar. This should open the
login page for your web management.
• If you still cannot access the configuration, unplug the power to the router for 10 seconds and plug back in. Wait about 30 seconds and try accessing
the configuration. If you have multiple computers, try connecting using a different computer.
2. What can I do if I forgot my password?
If you forgot your password, you must reset your router. Unfortunately this process will change all your settings back to the factory defaults.
To reset the router, locate the reset button (hole) on the rear panel of the unit. With the router powered on, use a paperclip to hold the button
down for 5 seconds. Release the button and the router will go through its reboot process. Wait about 30 seconds to access the router. The default
IP address is 192.168.0.1. When logging in, the username is
admin
and leave the password box empty.
