Troubleshooting
This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and operation of the DAP-1525.
Read the following descriptions if you are having problems. (The examples below are illustrated in Windows
®
XP. If
you have a different operating system, the screen shots on your computer will look similar to the following examples.)
1. Why can’t I access the Web-based conguration utility?
When entering the IP address of the D-Link Access Point (192.168.0.50 for example), you are not connecting to a
Website on the Internet or have to be connected to the Internet. The device has the utility built-in to a ROM chip in the
device itself. Your computer must be on the same IP subnet to connect to the Web-based utility.
• Make sure you have an updated Java-enabled Web browser. We recommend the following:
• InternetExplorer6.0orhigher
• Mozilla3.0orhigher
• GoogleChrome2.0orhigher
• AppleSafari3.0orhigher(withJava1.3.1orhigher)
• Verify physical connectivity by checking for solid link lights on the device. If you do not get a solid link light, try using
a different cable or connect to a different port on the device if possible. If the computer is turned off, the link light may
not be on.
• Disable any Internet security software running on the computer. Software rewalls such as Zone Alarm, Black Ice,
Sygate, Norton Personal Firewall, and Windows
®
XP rewall may block access to the conguration pages. Check the
help les included with your rewall software for more information on disabling or conguring it.
