Section 2 - Installation
Installation
Ths secton wll walk you through the nstallaton process. Placement of the router s very mportant. Do not place the router n an enclosed area such as a closet, cabnet, or n the attc or garage.
Before you Begin

Please configure the router wth the computer that was last connected drectly to your modem. You can only use the Ethernet port on your modem. If you were usng the USB connecton before usng the router, then you must turn off your modem, dsconnect the USB cable and connect an Ethernet cable to the Internet port on the router, and then turn the modem back on. In some cases, you may need to call your ISP to change connecton types (USB to Ethernet). If you have DSL and are connectng va PPPoE, make sure you dsable or unnstall any PPPoE software such as WnPoet, Broadjump, or Enternet 300 from your computer or you wll not be able to connect to the Internet. When runnng the Setup Wzard from the D-Lnk CD, make sure the computer you are runnng the CD from s connected to the Internet and onlne or the wzard wll not work. If you have dsconnected any hardware, re-connect your computer back to the modem and make sure you are onlne.
Wireless Installation Considerations

The D-Lnk wreless router lets you access your network usng a wreless connecton from vrtually anywhere wthn the operatng range of your wreless network. Keep n mnd that the number, thckness and locaton of walls, celngs, or other objects that the wreless sgnals must pass through, may lmt the range. Typcal ranges vary dependng on the types of materals and background RF (rado frequency) nose n your home or busness. The key to maxmzng wreless range s to follow these basc gudelnes: 1. Keep the number of walls and celngs between the D-Lnk router and other network devces to a mnmum - each wall or celng can reduce your adapters range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Poston your devces so that the number of walls or celngs s mnmzed. 2. Be aware of the drect lne between network devces. A wall that s 1.5 feet thck (.5 meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thck. At a 2-degree angle t looks over 42 feet (14 meters) thck! Poston devces so that the sgnal wll travel straght through a wall or celng (nstead of at an angle) for better recepton. 3. Buldng Materals make a dfference. A sold metal door or alumnum studs may have a negatve effect on range. Try to poston access ponts, wreless routers, and computers so that the sgnal passes through drywall or open doorways. Materals and objects such as glass, steel, metal, walls wth nsulaton, water (fish tanks), mrrors, file cabnets, brck, and concrete wll degrade your wreless sgnal. 4. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrcal devces or applances that generate RF nose. 5. If you are usng 2.4GHz cordless phones or X-10 (wreless products such as celng fans, lghts, and home securty systems), your wreless connecton may degrade dramatcally or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4GHz phone base s as far away from your wreless devces as possble. The base transmts a sgnal even f the phone n not n use.

Connect to Another Router

If you are connectng the D-Lnk router to another router to use as a wreless access pont and/or swtch, you wll have to do the followng before connectng the router to your network: Dsable UPnP Dsable DHCP Change the LAN IP address to an avalable address on your network. The LAN ports on the router cannot accept a DHCP address from your other router. To connect to another router, please follow the steps below: 1. Plug the power nto the router. Connect one of your computers to the router (LAN port) usng an Ethernet cable. Make sure your IP address on the computer s 192.168.0.xxx (where xxx s between 2 and 254). Please see the Networking.Basics secton for more nformaton. If you need to change the settngs, wrte down your exstng settngs before makng any changes. In most cases, your computer should be set to receve an IP address automatcally n whch case you wll not have to do anythng to your computer. 2. Open a web browser and enter http://192.168.0.1 and press Enter. When the logn wndow appears, set the user name to Admin and leave the password box empty. Clck Log.In to contnue. 3.

DHCP Server Settings

DHCP stands for Dynamc Host Control Protocol. The DIR-615 has a bult-n DHCP server. The DHCP Server wll automatcally assgn an IP address to the computers on the LAN/prvate network. Be sure to set your computers to be DHCP clents by settng ther TCP/IP settngs to Obtan an IP Address Automatcally. When you turn your computers on, they wll automatcally load the proper TCP/IP settngs provded by the DIR-615. The DHCP Server wll automatcally allocate an unused IP address from the IP address pool to the requestng computer. You must specfy the startng and endng address of the IP address pool.
Enable DHCP Check ths box to enable the DHCP server on your router. Uncheck to dsable Server: ths functon. DHCP IP Address Enter the startng and endng IP addresses for the DHCP servers IP Range: assgnment. Note: If you statically (manually) assign IP addresses to your computers or devices, make sure the IP addresses are outside of this range or you may have an IP conflict. Lease Time: The length of tme for the IP address lease. Enter the Lease tme n mnutes. Always Broadcast: Enable ths functon to ensure compatblty wth some DHCP clents.

DHCP Reservation
If you want a computer or devce to always have the same IP address assgned, you can create a DHCP reservaton. The router wll assgn the IP address only to that computer or devce. Note: This IP address must be within the DHCP IP Address Range.
Enable: Check ths box to enable the reservaton. Computer Name: Enter the computer name or select from the drop-down menu and clck <<. IP Address: Enter the IP address you want to assgn to the computer or devce. Ths IP Address must be wthn the DHCP IP Address Range. MAC Address: Enter the MAC address of the computer or devce.

You must clck Save.Settings at the top to actvate your reservatons. Dynamic DHCP In ths secton you can see what LAN devces are currently Clients: leasng IP addresses. Revoke: Clck Revoke to cancel the lease for a specfic LAN devce and free an entry n the lease table. Do ths only f the devce no longer needs the leased IP address, because, for example, t has been removed from the network. Note: The Revoke option will not disconnect a PC with a current network session from the network; you would need to use MAC Address Filter to do that. Revoke will only free up a DHCP Address for the very next requester. If the previous owner is still available, those two devices may both receive an IP Address Conflict error, or the second device may still not receive an IP Address; in that case, you may still need to extend the DHCP IP Address Range to address the issue, it is located in the DHCP Server section. Reserve: The Reserve opton converts ths dynamc IP allocaton nto a DHCP Reservaton and adds the correspondng entry to the DHCP Reservatons Lst.
29
Virtual Server
The DIR-615 can be configured as a vrtual server so that remote users accessng Web or FTP servces va the publc IP address can be automatcally redrected to local servers n the LAN (Local Area Network).

Section 4 - Security
Wireless Security
Ths secton wll show you the dfferent levels of securty you can use to protect your data from ntruders. The DIR-615 offers the followng types of securty: WPA2 (W-F Protected Access 2) WPA (W-F Protected Access) WPA2-PSK(Pre-Shared Key) WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key)
What is WPA?
WPA, or W-F Protected Access, s a W-F standard that was desgned to mprove the securty features of WEP (Wred Equvalent Prvacy). The 2 major mprovements over WEP: Improved data encrypton through the Temporal Key Integrty Protocol (TKIP). TKIP scrambles the keys usng a hashng algorthm and, by addng an ntegrty-checkng feature, ensures that the keys havent been tampered wth. WPA2 s based on 802.11 and uses Advanced Encrypton Standard (AES) nstead of TKIP. User authentcaton, whch s generally mssng n WEP, through the extensble authentcaton protocol (EAP). WEP regulates access to a wreless network based on a computers hardware-specfic MAC address, whch s relatvely smple to be snffed out and stolen. EAP s bult on a more secure publc-key encrypton system to ensure that only authorzed network users can access the network. WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK uses a passphrase or key to authentcate your wreless connecton. The key s an alpha-numerc password between 8 and 63 characters long. The password can nclude symbols (!?*&_) and spaces. Ths key must be the exact same key entered on your wreless router or access pont. WPA/WPA2 ncorporates user authentcaton through the Extensble Authentcaton Protocol (EAP). EAP s bult on a more secure publc key encrypton system to ensure that only authorzed network users can access the network.

Section 6 - Troubleshooting You should start at 1472 and work your way down by 10 each tme. Once you get a reply, go up by 2 untl you get a fragmented packet. Take that value and add 28 to the value to account for the varous TCP/IP headers. For example, lets say that 1452 was the proper value, the actual MTU sze would be 1480, whch s the optmum for the network were workng wth (1452+28=1480). Once you find your MTU, you can now configure your router wth the proper MTU sze. To change the MTU rate on your router follow the steps below: Open your browser, enter the IP address of your router (192.168.0.1) and clck OK. Enter your username (admn) and password (blank by default). Clck OK to enter the web configuraton page for the devce. Clck on Setup and then clck Manual.Configure. To change the MTU enter the number n the MTU field and clck Save.Settings to save your settngs. Test your e-mal. If changng the MTU does not resolve the problem, contnue changng the MTU n ncrements of ten.

Wireless Basics
D-Lnk wreless products are based on ndustry standards to provde easy-to-use and compatble hgh-speed wreless connectvty wthn your home, busness or publc access wreless networks. Strctly adherng to the IEEE standard, the D-Lnk wreless famly of products wll allow you to securely access the data you want, when and where you want t. You wll be able to enjoy the freedom that wreless networkng delvers. A wreless local area network (WLAN) s a cellular computer network that transmts and receves data wth rado sgnals nstead of wres. Wreless LANs are used ncreasngly n both home and office envronments, and publc areas such as arports, coffee shops and unverstes. Innovatve ways to utlze WLAN technology are helpng people to work and communcate more efficently. Increased moblty and the absence of cablng and other fixed nfrastructure have proven to be benefical for many users. Wreless users can use the same applcatons they use on a wred network. Wreless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems support the same protocols as Ethernet adapter cards. Under many crcumstances, t may be desrable for moble network devces to lnk to a conventonal Ethernet LAN n order to use servers, prnters or an Internet connecton suppled through the wred LAN. A Wreless Router s a devce used to provde ths lnk.
105
What.is.Wireless?
Wreless or W-F technology s another way of connectng your computer to the network wthout usng wres. W-F uses rado frequency to connect wrelessly, so you have the freedom to connect computers anywhere n your home or office network.
Why.D-Link.Wireless?
D-Lnk s the worldwde leader and award wnnng desgner, developer, and manufacturer of networkng products. D-Lnk delvers the performance you need at a prce you can afford. D-Lnk has all the products you need to buld your network.
How.does.wireless.work?
Wreless works smlar to how cordless phone work, through rado sgnals to transmt data from one pont A to pont B. But wreless technology has restrctons as to how you can access the network. You must be wthn the wreless network range area to be able to connect your computer. There are two dfferent types of wreless networks Wreless Local Area Network (WLAN), and Wreless Personal Area Network (WPAN).
Wireless.Local.Area.Network.(WLAN)
In a wreless local area network, a devce called an Access Pont (AP) connects computers to the network. The access pont has a small antenna attached to t, whch allows t to transmt data back and forth over rado sgnals. Wth an ndoor access pont as seen n the pcture, the sgnal can travel up to 300 feet. Wth an outdoor access pont the sgnal can reach out up to 30 mles to serve places lke manufacturng plants, ndustral locatons, college and hgh school campuses, arports, golf courses, and many other outdoor venues.
Wireless.Personal.Area.Network.(WPAN)
Bluetooth s the ndustry standard wreless technology used for WPAN. Bluetooth devces n WPAN operate n a range up to 30 feet away. Compared to WLAN the speed and wreless operaton range are both less than WLAN, but n return t doesnt use nearly as much power whch makes t deal for personal devces, such as moble phones, PDAs, headphones, laptops, speakers, and other devces that operate on batteres. D-Lnk DIR-615 User Manual 106
Who.uses.wireless?.
Wreless technology as become so popular n recent years that almost everyone s usng t, whether ts for home, office, busness, DLnk has a wreless soluton for t.
Home
Gves everyone at home broadband access Surf the web, check e-mal, nstant message, and etc Gets rd of the cables around the house Smple and easy to use
Small.Office.and.Home.Office
Stay on top of everythng at home as you would at office Remotely access your office network from home Share Internet connecton and prnter wth multple computers No need to dedcate office space
107
Where.is.wireless.used?.
Wreless technology s expandng everywhere not just at home or office. People lke the freedom of moblty and ts becomng so popular that more and more publc facltes now provde wreless access to attract people. The wreless connecton n publc places s usually called hotspots. Usng a D-Lnk Cardbus Adapter wth your laptop, you can access the hotspot to connect to Internet from remote locatons lke: Arports, Hotels, Coffee Shops, Lbrares, Restaurants, and Conventon Centers. Wreless network s easy to setup, but f youre nstallng t for the first tme t could be qute a task not knowng where to start. Thats why weve put together a few setup steps and tps to help you through the process of settng up a wreless network.
Tips
Here are a few thngs to keep n mnd, when you nstall a wreless network.
Centralize.your.router.or.Access.Point
Make sure you place the router/access pont n a centralzed locaton wthn your network for the best performance. Try to place the router/access pont as hgh as possble n the room, so the sgnal gets dspersed throughout your home. If you have a two-story home, you may need a repeater to boost the sgnal to extend the range.
Eliminate.Interference
Place home applances such as cordless telephones, mcrowaves, and televsons as far away as possble from the router/access pont. Ths would sgnficantly reduce any nterference that the applances mght cause snce they operate on same frequency.
Security
Dont let you next-door neghbors or ntruders connect to your wreless network. Secure your wreless network by turnng on the WPA or WEP securty feature on the router. Refer to product manual for detal nformaton on how to set t up.
108
Wireless Modes
There are bascally two modes of networkng: Infrastructure All wreless clents wll connect to an access pont or wreless router. Ad-Hoc Drectly connectng to another computer, for peer-to-peer communcaton, usng wreless network adapters on each computer, such as two or more DIR-615 wreless network Cardbus adapters. An Infrastructure network contans an Access Pont or wreless router. All the wreless devces, or clents, wll connect to the wreless router or access pont. An Ad-Hoc network contans only clents, such as laptops wth wreless cardbus adapters. All the adapters must be n Ad-Hoc mode to communcate.
109
Appendix B - Networking Basics
Networking Basics
Check your IP address
After you nstall your adapter, by default, the TCP/IP settngs should be set to obtan an IP address from a DHCP server (.e. wreless router) automatcally. To verfy your IP address, please follow the steps below. Clck on Start > Run. In the run box type cmd and clck OK. (Wndows Vsta users type cmd n the Start.Search box.) At the prompt, type ipconfig and press Enter. Ths wll dsplay the IP address, subnet mask, and the default gateway of your adapter. If the address s 0.0.0.0, check your adapter nstallaton, securty settngs, and the settngs on your router. Some firewall software programs may block a DHCP request on newly nstalled adapters.
110
Appendix B - Networking Basics
Statically Assign an IP address

If you are not usng a DHCP capable gateway/router, or you need to assgn a statc IP address, please follow the steps below: Step.1 Wndows 7 Wndows Vsta Wndows XP Wndows 2000 Clck on Start > Control.Panel > Network.and.Internet > Network.and.Sharing.Center > Change.Adapter.Setting.. Clck on Start > Control.Panel > Network.and.Internet > Network.and.Sharing.Center > Manage.Network.Connections. Clck on Start > Control.Panel > Network.Connections. From the desktop, rght-clck My.Network.Places > Properties.
Step.2 Rght-clck on the Local.Area.Connection whch represents your network adapter and select Properties. Step.3 Hghlght Internet.Protocol.(TCP/IP) and clck Properties. Step.4 Clck Use.the.following.IP.address and enter an IP address that s on the same subnet as your network or the LAN IP address on your router. Example: If the routers LAN IP address s 192.168.0.1, make your IP address 192.168.0.X where X s a number between 2 and 99. Make sure that the number you choose s not n use on the network. Set Default Gateway the same as the LAN IP address of your router (192.168.0.1). Set Prmary DNS the same as the LAN IP address of your router (192.168.0.1). The Secondary DNS s not needed or you may enter a DNS server from your ISP. Step.5 Clck OK twce to save your settngs.
