Introduction

D-Link,the industry pioneerin wireless networking,introduces anotherbreakthrough in

wireless connectivity — the D-LinkAirXpert DWL-7000APWirelessAccess Point.This

tri-mode,dualbandAccessPoint provides themost expanded user bandwidth available

inanAP.Wireless clientscan connect tothisAPusing anyone of its11 non-overlapping

channels to transfer data at speeds never before achievable in a wireless device. The

DWL-7000AP operates seamlessly and simultaneously in both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz

frequencyspectrumssupportingthe802.11b and the newer,faster802.11aand802.11g

wireless standards. For offices, schools or public hotspots that already use 802.11b

devices, the DWL-7000AP is a great way to expand an existing network and enable

evenmore usersto communicatewith oneanother, access dataand theInternet. Now,

D-LinkAir Xpertwireless products arebased onindustry standardsto provideeasy-to-

useand compatiblehigh-speed wirelessconnectivity withinyour home, businessor

public access wireless networks. Strictly adhering to the IEEE standard, the D-Link

Air Xpert wireless family of products will allow you to securely access the data you

want, when and where you want it. You will be able to enjoy the freedom that wireless

networkingdelivers.

A wireless local area network (WLAN) is a cellular computer network that transmits

and receives data with radio signals instead of wires. Wireless LANs are used

increasinglyin bothhome andoffice environments,and public areassuch asairports,

coffeeshops and universities.Innovative waysto utilize WLANtechnology arehelping

people to work and communicate more efficiently. Increased mobility and the absence

ofcabling and otherfixed infrastructurehave provento be beneficial for manyusers.

Wireless users can use the same applications they use on a wired network.

Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems support the same

protocolsas Ethernet adapter cards.

Under many circumstances, it may be desirable for mobile network devices to link to

aconventional EthernetLAN in order to use servers, printers or an Internet connection

supplied through the wired LAN.AWirelessAccess Point (AP) is a device used to

providethis link.

Peopleuse wireless LAN technology for many different purposes:

Mobility -Productivity increases when people have access to data in any location

withinthe operating range of the WLAN. Management decisions based on real-time

informationcan significantly improveworker efficiency.

Low Implementation Costs –WLANs are easy to set up, manage, change and

relocate.Networks that frequently change can benefit from WLANs ease of

implementation. WLANs can operate in locations where installation of wiring may be

impractical.

Installation and Network Expansion - Installing a WLAN system can be fast and

easy and can eliminate the need to pull cable through walls and ceilings. Wireless

technology allows the network to go where wires cannot go - even outside the home or

office.

Inexpensive Solution – Wireless network devices are as competitively priced as

conventionalEthernetnetworkdevices.

Scalability – WLANs can be configured in a variety of ways to meet the needs of

specificapplications and installations. Configurations are easily changed and range

frompeer-to-peer networks suitable for a small number of usersto larger infrastructure

networksto accommodate hundreds or thousands of users, depending on the number

ofwirelessdevices deployed.

Standards-Based Technology

The DWL-7000APWirelessAccessPointutilizesthe 802.11a,802.11b anddraft802.11g

standard.

The IEEE 802.11g standard is an extension of the 802.11b standard. It increases the

data rate up to 54 Mbps within the 2.4GHz band. The 802.11a standard also increases

thedatarateupto 54 Mbps,butwithin the 5GHz band.Both802.11aand 802.11g utilize

OFDM technology.

Thismeans that inmost environments, withinthe specified rangeof this device,you will

be able to transfer large files quickly or even watch a movie in MPEG format over your

network without noticeable delays. This technology works by transmitting high-speed

digitaldataoveraradiowaveutilizingOFDM (Orthogonal FrequencyDivisionMultiplexing)

technology. OFDM works by splitting the radio signal into multiple smaller sub-signals

thatare then transmittedsimultaneouslyat differentfrequencies to the receiver. OFDM

reducesthe amount ofcrosstalk (interference) in signaltransmissions.

TheDWL-7000APoffersthemost advancednetwork security features available today,

including: WPA and 802.1x.

In addition to its compatibility with 802.11g and 802.11a devices, the DWL-7000AP is

compatiblewith802.11bdevices.Thismeansthatifyouhaveanexisting802.11bnetwork,

oranetworkwitha mixture of 802.11g, 802.11a and 802.11b,thedevicesinthatnetwork

willbe compatiblewith the DWL-7000AP.

Installation Considerations

Desktopand laptop computers with wirelessnetwork adapters installed can access the

D-LinkAir Xpert DWL-7000APfromvirtuallyanywherewithinitsoperatingrange. Keep

in mind, however, that the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other

objectsthat the wireless signalsmust passthrough, may limit the range.Typicalranges

varydepending on thetypes of materialsand background RF(radio frequency) noise in

your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic

guidelines:

Be aware of the direct line between network devices.A wall that is 1.5

feet thick (.5 meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet

(1 meter) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks over 42 feet (14 meters)

thick! Position devices so that the signal will travel straight through a

wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.

Buildingmaterials can impede thewireless signal -a solid metaldoor or

aluminum studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position

wirelessdevices and computers with wirelessadapterssothatthesignal

passesthrough drywall or open doorways and not other materials.

Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from

electrical devices or appliances that may generate extreme RF noise.

Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the DWL-7000AP and

other network devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce

yourD-Linkwirelessproduct’srangefrom3-90feet(1-30meters.)Position

your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.

Getting Started

An Infrastructure wireless network contains anAccess Point or Router.The

Infrastructure Network example,shown onthe following page, contains the following

D-Linknetworkdevices:

Awireless Access Point - D-Link Air Xpert DWL-7000AP

An Ethernet Router -D-Link DI-604

A laptop computer with a wireless adapter - D-Link Air Xpert DWL-AG650

A desktop computer with a wireless adapter - D-Link Air Xpert DWL-AG520

ACablemodem - D-Link DCM-201

If you need to assign IPAddresses to the computers on the network, please

remember that the IP Address for each computer must be in the same IP

Address range as all the computers in the network, and the Subnet mask

must be exactly the same for all the computers in the network.

For example: If the first computer is assigned an IPAddress of 192.168.0.2 with a

Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0, then the second computer can be assigned an IP

Address of 192.168.0.3 with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0, etc.

IMPORTANT: If computers or other devices are assigned the same IP

Address, one or more of the devices may not be visible on the network.

IP ADDRESS

Note: If you are using a DHCP-capable router in your network setup, such as

the DI-604, you will not need to assign a static IP Address.

Right out of the box, with its default settings, the DWL-7000AP will automati-

cally connect with other D-Link Air Xpert products
