Getting Started

Installation

This section will walk you through the installation process. If you have a built-in wireless adapter, please disable it in the Device

Manager before installing your D-Link adapter. Also, if you have previously installed another wireless adapter, please make

sure any software is uninstalled.

BeforeinstallingyournewD-Linkwirelessadapter,pleaseverifythefollowing:

•Removeanypreviousinstallationsofwirelessadapters

•Disableanybuilt-inwirelessadapters

•VerifythesettingssuchastheSSIDandsecuritysettingsofthenetwork(s)youwanttoconnectto

Remove Existing Installations

If you’ve installed a dierent manufacture’s adapter or a dierent model D-Link adapter, make sure the software is uninstalled

before installing the new software. Some utilities may cause a conict with the new software. If you plan to use multiple adapters

at dierent times, make sure the utilities are not set to load when your computer boots up. To remove any old software, click

Start > ControlPanel > UninstallPrograms.

Wireless Installation Considerations

The D-Link wireless adapter lets you access your network using a wireless connection from virtually anywhere within the

operating range of your wireless network. Keep in mind 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 D-Link adapter and other network devices to a minimum

- each wall or ceiling can reduce your adapter’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devices so

thatthenumberofwallsorceilingsisminimized.

2.Beawareofthedirectlinebetweennetworkdevices.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!

Position devices so that the signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better

reception.

3.Buildingmaterialsmakeadierence.Asolidmetaldoororaluminumstudsmayhaveanegativeeecton

range. Try to position access points, wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through drywall

or open doorways. Materials and objects such as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (sh tanks),

mirrors, le cabinets, brick, and concrete will degrade your wireless signal.

4. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF

noise.

5.Ifyouareusing2.4GHzcordlessphonesorX-10(wirelessproductssuchasceilingfans,lights,andhome

security systems), your wireless connection may degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4
