Security

Don’t let your next-door neighbors or intruders connect to your wireless network. Secure your wireless network by

turning on the WPA, WPA2, 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 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.

(Windows Vista

®

users type

cmd

in the

Start Search

box.)

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 Vista

Click on

Start

>

Control Panel

>

Network and Internet

>

Network and Sharing Center

>

Manage

Network Connections.

Windows

>

Properties

.

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 router.

Example:

If the AP’s LAN IP address is 192.168.0.50, make your IP address

192.168.0.X where X is a number between 2 and 99 (excluding the number 50).

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 router (192.168.0.1).

Set Primary DNS the same as the LAN IP address of your router (192.168.0.1).

The Secondary DNS is not needed or you may enter a DNS server from your ISP.

Step 5

Click

OK

twice to save your settings.

1.

Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g and 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.
