Requirements for using the DWL-G820’s Web
Configuration Utility
Using the Configuration Menu
The DWL-G820 must be connected directly to your computer
for configuration. You cannot configure this device if it is
connected to a hub or router.
If you are incorporating the DWL-G820 into a network that contains all D-Link
devices, you do not need to use the Web Configuration utility. With its default
settings, the DWL-G820 will connect with other D-Link 802.11b or 802.11g devices
that are set to their default settings, with no configuration needed!
If your network contains devices other than D-Link devices, or if you wish to configure
the DWL-G820, you will need to do the following before using the Web Configuration
Utility:
You will need a Java-enabled Web browser such as the Internet Explorer
6.0 or later, or the Netscape Navigator 6.0 or later.
You will need to assign a static IP address to the computer that you are
using to configure the DWL-G820, within the IP address range of the
DWL-G820. The DWL-G820 has a default IP address of
192.168.0.35
with
a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0
You can, for example, assign a static IP address of 192.168.0.2 with a subnet
mask of 255.255.255.0 to the computer you will use for configuration.
(Please refer to the Appendix section of the Quick Installation Guide.)
