126D-Link DIR-825 User Manua\f Appendix A - Wire\fess Basics What.is.Wire\bess? Wire\fess or Wi-Fi techno\fo\by is another way of connectin\b your computer to the network without usin\b wires. Wi-Fi uses radio frequency to connect wire\fess\fy, so you have the freedom to connect computers anywhere in your home or office network. Why.D-Link. Wire\bess? D-Link is the wor\fdwide \feader and award winnin\b desi\bner, deve\foper, and manufacturer of networkin\b products. D-Link de\fivers the performance you need at a price you can afford. D-Link has a\f\f the products you need to bui\fd your network. How.does.wire\bess.work? Wire\fess works simi\far to how cord\fess phone work, throu\bh radio si\bna\fs to transmit data from one point A to point B. But wire\fess techno\fo\by has restrictions as to how you can access the network. You must be within the wire\fess network ran\be area to be ab\fe to connect your computer. There are two different types of wire\fess networks Wire\fess Loca\f Area Network (WLAN), and Wire\fess Persona\f Area Network (WPAN). Wire\bess.Loca\b.Area.Network.(WLAN) In a wire\fess \foca\f area network, a device ca\f\fed an Access Point (AP) connects computers to the network. The access point has a sma\f\f antenna attached to it, which a\f\fows it to transmit data back and forth over radio si\bna\fs. With an indoor access point as seen in the picture, the si\bna\f can trave\f up to 300 feet. With an outdoor access point the si\bna\f can reach out up to 30 mi\fes to serve p\faces \fike manufacturin\b p\fants, industria\f \focations, co\f\fe\be and hi\bh schoo\f campuses, airports, \bo\ff courses, and many other outdoor venues.
127D-Link DIR-825 User Manua\f Appendix A - Wire\fess Basics Wire\bess.Persona\b.Area.Network.(WPAN) B\fuetooth is the industry standard wire\fess techno\fo\by used for WPAN. B\fuetooth devices in WPAN operate in a ran\be up to 30 feet away. Compared to WLAN the speed and wire\fess operation ran\be are both \fess than WLAN, but in return it doesn’t use near\fy as much power which makes it idea\f for persona\f devices, such as mobi\fe phones, PDAs, headphones, \faptops, speakers, and other devices that operate on batteries. Who.uses.wire\bess?. Wire\fess techno\fo\by as become so popu\far in recent years that a\fmost everyone is usin\b it, whether it’s for home, office, business, D-Link has a wire\fess so\fution for it. Home • Gives everyone at home broadband access • Surf the web, check emai\f, instant messa\be, etc. • Gets rid of the cab\fes around the house • Simp\fe and easy t\uo use Sma\b\b.\fffice.and.Home.\fffice • Stay on top of everythin\b at home as you wou\fd at office • Remote\fy access your office network from home • Share Internet connection and printer with mu\ftip\fe computers • No need to dedicate office space
128D-Link DIR-825 User Manua\f Appendix A - Wire\fess Basics Where.is.wire\bess.used?. Wire\fess techno\fo\by is expandin\b everywhere not just at home or office. Peop\fe \fike the freedom of mobi\fity and it’s becomin\b so popu\far that more and more pub\fic faci\fities now provide wire\fess access to attract peop\fe. The wire\fess connection in pub\fic p\faces is usua\f\fy ca\f\fed \u“hotspots”. Usin\b a D-Link Cardbus Adapter with your \faptop, you can access the hotspot to connect to Internet from remote \focations \fike: Airports, Hote\fs, Coffee Shops, Libraries, Restaurants, and Convention Centers. Wire\fess network is easy to setup, but if you’re insta\f\fin\b it for the first time it cou\fd be quite a task not knowin\b where to start. That’s why we’ve put to\bether a few setup steps and tips to he\fp you throu\bh the process of settin\b up a \uwire\fess network. Tips Here are a few thin\bs to keep in mind, when you insta\f\f a wire\fess network. Centra\bize.your.router.or.Access.Point Make sure you p\face the router/access point in a centra\fized \focation within your network for the best performance. Try to p\face the router/access point as hi\bh as possib\fe in the room, so the si\bna\f \bets dispersed throu\bhout your home. If you have a two-story home, you may need a repeater to boost the si\bna\f to extend the ran\be. E\biminate.Interference P\face home app\fiances such as cord\fess te\fephones, microwaves, and te\fevisions as far away as possib\fe from the router/ access point. This wou\fd si\bnificant\fy reduce any interference that the app\fiances mi\bht cause since they operate on same frequency.

Security
Don’t \fet you next-door nei\bhbors or intruders connect to your wire\fess network. Secure your wire\fess network by turnin\b on
the WPA or WEP security feature on the router. Refer to product manua\f for detai\f information on how to set it up.
There are basica\f\fy two modes of networkin\b:
• Infrastructure – A\f\f wire\fess c\fients wi\f\f connect to an access point or wire\fess router.
• Ad-Hoc – Direct\fy connectin\b to another computer, for peer-to-peer communication, usin\b wire\fess network
adapters on each computer, such as two or more DIR-825 wire\fess network Cardbus adapters.
An Infrastructure network contains an Access Point or wire\fess router. A\f\f the wire\fess devices, or c\fients, wi\f\f connect to the
wire\fess router or access point.
An Ad-Hoc network contains on\fy c\fients, such as \faptops with wire\fess cardbus adapters. A\f\f the adapters must be in Ad-Hoc
mode to communicate.

130D-Link DIR-825 User Manua\f Appendix B - Networkin\b Basics Networking Basi\fs Che\fk your IP address After you insta\f\f your new D-Link adapter, by defau\ft, the TCP/IP settin\bs shou\fd be set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server (i.e. wire\fess router) automatica\f\fy. To verify your IP address, p\fease fo\f\fow the steps be\fow. C\fick on Start > Run. In the run box type cmd and c\fick \fK. (Windows® 7/Vista® users type cmd in the Start.Search box.) At the prompt, type ipcon\bg and press Enter. This wi\f\f disp\fay the IP address, subnet mask, and the defau\ft \bateway of your adapter. If the address is 0.0.0.0, check your adapter insta\f\fation, security settin\bs, and the settin\bs on your router. Some firewa\f\f software pro\brams may b\fock a DHCP request on new\fy insta\u\f\fed adapters.
131D-Link DIR-825 User Manua\f Appendix B - Networkin\b Basics Stati\fally Assign an IP address If you are not usin\b a DHCP c\uapab\fe \bateway/router, or you need to assi\bn a static IP address, p\fease fo\f\fow the steps be\fow: Step.1 Windows® 7 - C\fick on Start > Contro\b.Pane\b > Network.and.Internet > Network.and.Sharing.Center.

Step.4 C\fick Use.the.fo\b\bowing. IP.address and enter an IP address that is on the same subnet as your network or the LAN IP add\uress on your router. Examp\fe: If the router´s LAN IP address is 192.168.0.1, make your IP address 192.168.0.X where X is a number between 2 and 99. Make sure that the number you choose is not in use on the network. Set the Defau\ft Gateway the same as the LAN IP address of your router (I.E. 192.168.0.1). Set Primary DNS the same as the LAN IP address of your router (192.168.0.1). The Secondary DNS is not needed\u or you may enter a DNS server from your ISP. Step.5 C\fick \fK twice to save your settin\bs.

135D-Link DIR-825 User Manua\f Appendix E - GNU Genera\f Pub\fic License Preamble The GNU Genera\f Pub\fic License is a free, copy\feft \ficense for software and other kinds of works. The \ficenses for most software and other practica\f works are desi\bned to take away your freedom to share and chan\be the works. By contrast, the GNU Genera\f Pub\fic License is intended to \buarantee your freedom to share and chan\be a\f\f versions of a pro\bram--to make sure it remains free software for a\f\f its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the GNU Genera\f Pub\fic License for most of our software; it app\fies a\fso to any other work re\feased this way by its authors. You can app\fy it to your pro\brams, too. When we speak of free software, we are referrin\b to freedom, not price. Our Genera\f Pub\fic Licenses are desi\bned to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and char\be for them if you wish), that you receive source code or can \bet it if you want it, that you can chan\be the software or use pieces of it in new free pro\brams, and that you know you can do these thin\b\us. To protect your ri\bhts, we need to prevent others from denyin\b you these ri\bhts or askin\b you to surrender the ri\bhts. Therefore, you have certain responsibi\fities if \uyou distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it: responsibi\fities to respect the freedom of others. For examp\fe, if you distribute copies of such a pro\bram, whether \bratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can \bet the sour\uce code. And you must show them these terms so they know their ri\bhts. Deve\fopers that use the GNU GPL pr\uotect your ri\bhts with two steps: (1) assert copyri\bht on the software, and (2) offer you this License \bivin\b you \fe\ba\f permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it. For the deve\fopers’ and authors’ protection, the GPL c\fear\fy exp\fains that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users’ and authors’ sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as chan\bed, so that their prob\fems wi\f\f not be attributed erroneous\fy to authors of previous versions. Some devices are desi\bned to deny users access to insta\f\f or run modified versions of the software inside them, a\fthou\bh the manufacturer can do so. This is fundamenta\f\fy incompatib\fe with the aim of protectin\b users’ freedom to chan\be the software. The systematic pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individua\fs to use, which is precise\fy where it is most unacceptab\fe. Therefore, we have desi\bned this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those products. If such prob\fems arise substantia\f\fy in other domains, we stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in \ufuture versions of the GPL,\u as needed to protect the freedom of users. Fina\f\fy, every pro\bram is threatened constant\fy by software patents. States shou\fd not a\f\fow patents to restrict deve\fopment and use of software on \benera\f-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to avoid the specia\f dan\ber that patents app\fied to a free pro\bram cou\fd make it effective\fy proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that patents cannot be used to render the pro\bram non-free. The precise terms and conditions for copyin\b, distribution and modifica\ution fo\f\fow.
