Introduction The D-Link AirPlus Xtreme G TMDWL-G810 High-Speed Ethernet Wireless Bridge is an 802.11g high-performance, wireless device that can be implemented in a variety of ways by converting an Ethernet connection into one that is capable of wireless connectivity. For devices with a built-in Ethernet port, the DWL-G810 provides a cost-effective way to gain wireless connectivity, virtually transforming wired devices into wireless units! Connect any Ethernet-enabled device to an existing 802.
Features & Benefits Transforms an Ethernet device into a wireless device Five times faster - achieves a maximum wireless signal rate of up to 54Mbps*; up to 5x faster than conventional 802.11b networks, when used with other 802.11g devices Fully compliant with the 802.11b standard and interoperable with all existing 802.11b-compliant and 802.
Wireless Basics With the DWL-G810 you can provide instant wireless access to the LAN (Local Area Network) for Ethernet-enabled devices. With an Ethernet (CAT5) cable simply connect the DWL-G810 to the Ethernet port of a network device (such as a printer or web camera) to establish a wireless connection with another device equipped with a wireless network adapter set to Ad-Hoc mode.
Wireless Basics (continued) 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. Inexpensive Solution - Wireless network devices are as competitively priced as conventional Ethernet network devices.
Wireless Basics (continued) Installation Considerations TM The D-Link AirPlus Xtreme G DWL-G810 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.
Getting Started With its default settings, the DWL-G810, when activated, will connect with other D-Link AirPlus Xtreme G TM products, right out of the box. There are basically two modes of networking: Infrastructure – using an access point or router Ad-Hoc – directly connecting to another computer, for Peer-toPeer communication, using wireless network adapters on each computer, such as two or more DWL-G520 Wireless Network Adapters This example illustrates an Ad-Hoc setup.
Getting Started (continued) Infrastructure Mode This example illustrates an Infrastructure setup. To connect the DWL-G810 to a wireless network with a wireless router or access point, please refer to the printed Quick Installation Guide included with the product. Web configuration is required to connect the DWL-G810.
Web Configuration Requirements for using the DWL-G810’s Web Configuration Utility If you are incorporating the DWL-G810 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-G810 will connect with other D-Link 802.11b or 802.
Web Configuration (continued) Whenever you want to configure your network or the DWL-G810, you can access the Configuration Utility by opening the Web browser and typing in the IP address of the DWL-G810. The DWL-G810 default IP address is shown below: Open the Web browser. Type in the IP address of the access point. http://192.168.0.30 (The IP address shown in this example is the default setting.
Web Configuration (continued) Network This window displays the default settings of the DWLG810. The default IP address is 192.168.30. If you select Dynamic IP Address, you will obtain a dynamic IP address from a DHCP server on your network. The Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. Input the IP address of the Gateway (the router on your network.) Click Apply if you have made any changes. Operating Mode: Select Ad-Hoc or Infrastructure.
Web Configuration (continued) Wireless (continued) Channel: Devices communicating in Ad-Hoc mode must be set to the same channel. WEP Encryption: Select Enable Encryption to use WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) on the network. All devices on the network must share the same WEP selection – either Enable or Disable, and they must share the same WEP key. The WEP key is generated from ASCII or Hexadecimal entries that are either 64-bit or 128-bit in length.
Web Configuration (continued) Admin Administrator Settings: Change your password in this window. Re-enter the new password to confirm. It can be up to 14 characters in length. Please keep a copy of your password in a safe place. Click Apply, if you have made any changes. System Settings: The current system settings can be saved as a file onto the local hard drive by clicking Save. The saved file can be loaded back on the DWL-G810 by clicking Browse. When you have selected the settings file, click Load.
Web Configuration (continued) Help The Help window displays information about each window in the Configuration menu. When you change the settings in the Configuration menu, you will need to restart the DWL-G810 for the changes to take effect.
Troubleshooting This section provides solutions to situations that can occur during the installation and operation of the DWL-G810 High-Speed Ethernet Wireless Bridge. 1. How do I assign a static IP address in Windows XP/2000? Please note that routers will automatically assign IP addresses to the computers on the network, using DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) technology. If you are using a DHCP-capable router you will not need to assign static IP addresses.
Troubleshooting (continued) How do I assign a Static IP Address in Windows XP/2000? (continued) Right-click on Local Area Connections. Double-click Properties. D-Link DWL-G650 Click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). Click Properties.
Troubleshooting (continued) How do I assign a Static IP Address in Windows XP/2000? (continued) Select Use the following IP address. Enter the IP address. Enter the Subnet mask. Enter the Default Gateway. The Default Gateway is the LAN IP address of the wireless router. D-Link wireless routers have a LAN IP address of 192.168.0.1 Select Use the following DNS server address. Enter the LAN IP address of the wireless router. (D-Link wireless routers have a LAN IP address of 192.168.0.1) Click OK.
Troubleshooting (continued) 2. How do I assign a static IP address in Macintosh OSX? Go to the Apple Menu and select System Preferences. Click Network. Select Built-in Ethernet in the Show pull-down menu. Select Manually in the Configure pull-down menu. Input the static IP address, the subnet mask and the router IP address in the appropriate fields. Click Apply Now.
Troubleshooting (continued) 3. Why doesn’t the Power LED light up? Check to see if the DWL-G810 power adapter is connected properly to a known good power outlet. 4. Why doesn’t the Link LED light up? Make sure that the Ethernet cable is connected properly. Make sure the AC power adapter is plugged in properly. For advanced setup features, enter http://192.168.0.30 into your Internet browser and gain access to the web configuration of the DWL-G810.
Troubleshooting (continued) 8. Why can’t I connect the DWL-G810 to my network? Check that the LED indicators for the broadband modem are indicating normal activity. If not, there may be a problem with the broadband connection. Check that the LED indicators on the wireless router are functioning properly. If not, check that the AC power and Ethernet cables are firmly connected. Check that the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS settings are correctly entered for the network.
