Section 4 - Security Configure WEP It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless access point before your wireless network adapters. Please establish wireless connectivity before enabling encryption. Your wireless signal may degrade when enabling encryption due to the added overhead. 1. Log into the web-based configuration utility by opening a web browser and entering the device name of the access point (dlinkap). Click on Wireless Setup on the left side. 2.
Section 4 - Security What is WPA? WPA, or Wi-Fi Protected Access, is a Wi-Fi standard that was designed to improve the security features of WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy). There are 2 major improvements over WEP: • Improved data encryption through the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP). TKIP scrambles the keys using a hashing algorithm and by adding an integrity-checking feature ensures that the keys haven’t been tampered with.
Section 4 - Security Configure WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, and WPA2-Auto-PSK (Personal) It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless access point before your wireless network adapters. Please establish wireless connectivity before enabling encryption. Your wireless signal may degrade when enabling encryption due to the added overhead. 1. Log into the web-based configuration utility by opening a web browser and entering the device name of the access point (dlinkap).
Section 4 - Security Configure WPA-EAP, WPA2-EAP, and WPA2-Auto-EAP (Enterprise) It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless access point before your wireless network adapters. Please establish wireless connectivity before enabling encryption. Your wireless signal may degrade when enabling encryption due to the added overhead. 1. Log into the web-based configuration utility by opening a web browser and entering the device name of the access point (dlinkap).

You will be able to enjoy the freedom that wireless networking delivers.
Appendix B - Wireless Basics What is Wireless? Wireless or Wi-Fi technology is another way of connecting your computer to the network without using wires. Wi-Fi uses radio waves to connect wirelessly, so you have the freedom to connect computers anywhere in your home or office network. Why D-Link Wireless? D-Link is a worldwide leader and an award winning designer, developer, and manufacturer of networking products. D-Link delivers the performance you need at a price you can afford.
Appendix B - Wireless Basics Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) Bluetooth is the industry standard wireless technology used for WPANs. Bluetooth devices in WPANs operate in a range up to 30 feet away. The speed and wireless operation range of a WPAN is less than of a WLAN, but it excels in its efficient consumption of power. WPANs are ideal for personal devices, such as mobile phones, PDAs, headphones, laptops, speakers, and other devices that operate on batteries.
Appendix B - Wireless Basics Where is wireless used? Wireless technology is quickly expanding beyond home and office use. The freedom of mobility it offers is becoming so popular that more and more public facilities are now providing wireless access to attract people. Public places that offer wireless access is usually called a “hotspot”.
Appendix B - Wireless Basics Security Don’t let your next-door neighbors or unwanted intruders connect to your wireless network. Secure your wireless network by turning on the WEP or WPA security feature on the access point. Refer to the section “Wireless Security” in this manual for detailed information on how to set it up. Wireless Modes There are basically two modes of networking: • Infrastructure – All wireless clients will connect to an access point or wireless router.
Appendix C - Networking Basics Networking Basics Check your IP address After you install your network adapter, by default, the TCP/IP settings should be set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server (i.e. wireless router) automatically. To verify your IP address, please follow the steps below. Click on Start > Run. In the run box type cmd and click OK. At the prompt, type ipconfig and press Enter. This will display the IP address, subnet mask, and the default gateway of your adapter. If the address is 0.
