3. Wireless Basics

D-Link Air 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. Strictly adhering to the

IEEE standard, the D-Link Air 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 networking delivers.

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 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.

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.

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

to link to a conventional Ethernet LAN in order to use servers, printers or an

Internet connection supplied through the wired LAN. A Wireless Access

Point (AP) is a device used to provide this link.

People use wireless LAN 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 (Wireless Local Area Networks) are

easy to set up, manage, change and relocate. Networks that frequently

change, both physically and logically, can benefit from WLANs ease of

implementation. WLANs can operate in locations where installation of wiring

may be impractical.

Installation Speed and Simplicity - Installing a wireless LAN system can

be fast and easy and can eliminate the need to pull cable through walls and

ceilings.

Wireless Basics

Network Expansion - Wireless technology allows the network to go where

wires cannot go.

Reduced Cost-of-Ownership - While the initial investment required for

wireless LAN hardware might be higher than the cost of wired LAN hardware,

overall installation expenses and life-cycle costs will be significantly lower.

Long-term cost benefits are greatest in dynamic environments requiring

frequent moves, adds, and changes.

Scalability – Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) can be configured in a

installations. Configurations are easily changed and range from peer-to-peer

networks suitable for a small number of users to full infrastructure networks

of thousands of users that allow roaming over a broad area.

D-Link Air Wireless Family of LAN products include:

2.4GHz Wireless Cardbus Adapters used with laptop

computers (DWL-610)

2.4GHz Wireless PCI cards used with desktop computers

(DWL-510)

2.4GHz Wireless Access Points (DWL-700AP)

2.4GHz Wireless Broadband Router (DI-514)

Standards - Based Technology

The IEEE standard-based technology assures that the D-Link Air

Products are interoperable with existing compatible 2.4GHz wireless

technology. This means you will be able to transfer large files quickly or

even watch a movie in MPEG format over your network without noticeable

delays. The technology works by using multiple frequencies in the 2.4GHz

range at speeds up to 11 Mbps.

Installation Considerations

Designed to go up to 984 feet (300 meters) outdoors and up to 328 feet

(100 meters) indoors, D-Link’s Air DWL-700AP lets you access your

network using a wireless connection from virtually anywhere. 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:

1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the wireless Access

Point and your receiving device (e.g., the DWL-610) to a minimum -

Each wall or ceiling can reduce your D-Link Air Wireless product’s

range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your Access Points,

Residential Gateways, and computers so that the number of walls or

ceilings is minimized.

2. Be aware of the direct line between Access Points, Residential

Gateways (routers) and computers. 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! Try to make

sure that the Access Points and adapters are positioned so that the

signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling for better reception.

3. Building Materials make a difference - A solid metal door or aluminum

studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position Access Points,

and computers with wireless adapters so that the signal passes through

drywall or open doorways and not other materials.

4. Make sure that the device’s antenna is positioned for best reception by

using the software signal strength tools included with your product.

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

devices or appliances that may generate extreme RF noise.

For the average home, signal range should not be an issue. If you

experience low or no signal strength in areas of your home that you wish to

access, consider positioning the Access Point in a location directly between

the computers with wireless adapters. Additional Access Points can be

connected to provide better coverage in rooms where the signal does not

appear as strong as desired.

4. Getting Started

For the price of a single IP Address from your Broadband Internet Service

provider you can share the Internet with all the computers on your local

network, without sacrificing speed or security, using D-Link Air

networking products.

IP ADDRESS

An Infrastructure network contains an Access Point. The Infrastructure

Network example shown on the next page contains the following D-Link

network devices:

A wireless Access Point - D-Link Air DWL-700AP

An Ethernet Broadband Router - D-Link DI-604

A laptop computer with a wireless adapter - D-Link Air DWL-610

A desktop computer with a wireless adapter - D-Link Air DWL-510

A Cable modem - D-Link DCM-200

DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol.

It is a protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses “automatically.”

With a DHCP-capable gateway/router, there is

no need to manually assign an IP address.

Please note: If you have a DHCP-capable router, such as the D-

Link DI-604 or DI-614+, there is no need to assign an IP Address.

If you need to assign IP Addresses 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 IP Address o

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.

Right out of the box, with its default settings, the DWL-700AP will

automatically connect with other D-Link Air or AirPlus products.
