At up to ﬁfteen times the speed of previous wireless devices (maximum wireless signal rate of up

to 108Mbps* in Super G mode), you can work faster and more efﬁciently, increasing productivity.

With the DWL-3200AP, bandwidth-intensive applications like graphics or multimedia will beneﬁt

signiﬁcantly because large ﬁles are able to move across the network quickly.

The DWL-3200AP is capable of operating in one of 3 different wireless networking modes; access

point, WDS (Wireless Distribution System) with AP, or WDS mode.

Use less wiring, enjoy increased ﬂexibility, save time and money with PoE (Power over Ethernet).

With PoE, the DWL-3200AP shares power and data over the CAT5 cable, making the setup of

your network less expensive and more convenient.

An ideal solution for quickly creating and extending a wireless local area network (WLAN) in ofﬁces

or other workplaces, trade shows and special events, the DWL-3200AP provides data transfers

at up to 108Mbps in Super G mode when used with other D-Link AirPremier products. (The

802.11g standard is backwards compatible with 802.11b devices.)

Introduction

*”Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g 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 throughout rate.”

WPA is offered in two ﬂavors: Enterprise (used for corporations) and Personal (used for home

users).

WPA-Personal and WPA2-Personal is directed at home users who do not have the server based

equipment required for user authentication.The method of authentication is similar to WEP because

you deﬁne a “Pre-Shared Key” on the wireless router/AP. Once the pre-shared key is conﬁrmed

and satisﬁed on both the client and access point, then access is granted.The encryption method

used is referred to as the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), which offers per-packet dynamic

hashing. It also includes an integrity checking feature which ensures that the packets were not

tampered with during wireless transmission. WPA2-Personal is far superior to WPA-Personal,

because the encryption of data is upgraded with the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).

WPA-Enterprise and WPA2-Enterprise is ideal for businesses that have existing security

infrastructures in place. Management and security implementation can now be centralized on

a server participating on the network. Utilizing 802.1x with a RADIUS (Remote Authentication

Dial-in User Service) server, a network administrator can deﬁne a list of authorized users who

can access the wireless LAN. When attempting to access a wireless LAN with WPA-Enterprise or

WPA2-Enterprise conﬁgured, the new client will be challenged with a username and password. If

the new client is authorized by the administration, and enters the correct username and password,

then access is granted. In a scenario where an employee leaves the company, the network

administrator can remove the employee from the authorized list and not have to worry about

the network being compromised by a former employee. WPA2-Enterprise is far superior to

WPA-Enterprise, because the encryption of data is upgraded with the Advanced Encryption

Standard (AES).

802.1x: Authentication which is a ﬁrst line of defense against intrusion. In the authentication

process, the Authentication Server veriﬁes the identity of the client attempting to connect to the

network. Unfamiliar clients would be denied access.

EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) is available through the Windows®XP operating

system.You will need to use the same type of EAP protocol on all devices in your network when

using the 802.1x feature.

Wireless Basics

D-Link wireless products are based on industry standards to provide easy-to-use and compatible

high-speed wireless connectivity within your home, business or public access wireless networks.

D-Link wireless products will allow you access to the data you want, when and where you want

it. You will be able to enjoy the freedom that wireless networking brings.

A Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) is a computer network that transmits and receives

data with radio signals instead of wires. WLANs are used increasingly in both home and ofﬁce

environments, and public areas such as airports, coffee shops and universities. Innovative ways to

utilize WLAN technology are helping people to work and communicate more efﬁciently. Increased

mobility and the absence of cabling and other ﬁxed infrastructure have proven to be beneﬁcial

for many users.

People use WLAN technology for many different purposes:

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

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

signiﬁcantly improve worker 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 conventional

Ethernet network devices. The DWL-3200AP saves money by providing multi-functionality,

conﬁgurable in one of four different modes.

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

applications and installations. Conﬁgurations are easily changed and range from Peer-to-Peer

networks suitable for a small number of users to larger Infrastructure networks to accommodate

hundreds or thousands of users, depending on the number of wireless devices deployed.

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 protocols as Ethernet adapter cards.

Standards-based Technology

The DWL-3200AP Managed Wireless Access Point utilizes the 802.11b and the 802.11g

standards.

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

wireless signal rate of up to 54Mbps* (maximum wireless signal rate of up to 108Mbps* in Super

G mode) within the 2.4GHz band, utilizing OFDM technology.

This means that in most environments, within the speciﬁed range of 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 digital data over a radio

wave utilizing OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) technology. OFDM works by

splitting the radio signal into multiple smaller sub-signals that are then transmitted simultaneously

at different frequencies to the receiver. OFDM reduces the amount of crosstalk (interference) in

signal transmissions.

The D-Link DWL-3200AP will automatically sense the best possible connection speed to ensure

the greatest speed and range possible.

802.11g offers the most advanced network security features available today, including WPA and

WPA2.

Wireless Basics

The D-Link AirPremier DWL-3200AP lets you access your network, using a wireless connection,

from virtually anywhere within its operating range. Keep in mind, however, that the number,

thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass

through, may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and

background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business.The key to maximizing wireless

range is to follow these basic guidelines:

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

appliances that generate RF noise.

Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the DWL-3200AP and other network

devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your DWL-3200AP’s range

from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devices so that the number of walls or

ceilings is minimized.

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.

Building materials can impede the wireless signal - a solid metal door or aluminum

studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position wireless devices and

computers with wireless adapters so that the signal passes through drywall or open

doorways and not other materials.
