    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.

    Appendix A - Wire\fess Basics
    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-865L 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.

    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 ipco\ffig 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.

    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.
    Windows Vista® - C\fick on Start > Contro\b.Pane\b > Network .and .Internet > Network .and .Sharing .Center > Manage .Network
    . . . Connections.
    Windows® XP -  C\fick on Start > Contro\b.Pane\b > Network.Connections.
    Windows® 2000 - From the desktop, ri\bht-c\fick My.Network.P\baces > Properties.
    Step.2
    Ri\bht-c\fick on the Loca\b.Area.Connection which represents your network adapter and se\fect Properties.
    Step.3
    Hi\bh\fi\bht Internet.Protoco\b.(TCP/IP) and c\fick Properties.
    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.

    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.

    0..Definitions.
    “This License” refers to version 3 of the GNU\u Genera\f Pub\fic License.
    “Copyri\bht” a\fso means copyri\bht-\fike \faws that app\fy to other kinds of works, such as semiconductor masks.
    “The Pro\bram” refers to any copyri\bhtab\fe work \ficensed under this License.  Each \ficensee is addressed as “you”.  “Licensees” and “recipients” may 
    be individua\fs or o\ur\banizations.
    To “modify” a work means to copy from or adapt a\f\f or part of the work in a fashion requirin\b copyri\bht permission, other than the makin\b of an 
    exact copy.  The resu\ftin\b work is ca\f\fed a “modified version” of the ear\fier work or a work “based on” the ear\fier work.
    A “covered work” means either the unm\uodified Pro\bram or a work based on the Pro\bram.
    To “propa\bate” a work means to do anythin\b with it that, without permission, wou\fd make you direct\fy or secondari\fy \fiab\fe for infrin\bement under 
    app\ficab\fe  copyri\bht  \faw,  except  executin\b  it  on  a  computer  or  modifyin\b  a  private  copy.    Propa\bation  inc\fudes  copyin\b,  distribution  (with  or 
    without modification), makin\b avai\fab\fe to the pub\fic, and in some countries other activities as we\f\f.
    To “convey” a work means any kind of propa\bation that enab\fes other parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user throu\bh a 
    computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveyin\b.
    An interactive user interface disp\fays “Appropriate Le\ba\f Notices” to the extent that it inc\fudes a convenient and prominent\fy visib\fe feature that 
    (1) disp\fays an appropriate copyri\bht notice, and (2) te\f\fs the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the extent that warranties are 
    provided), that \ficensees may convey the work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If the interface presents a \fist of user 
    commands or options, such as a menu, a prominent item in the \fist meets \uthis criterion.
    1..Source.Code.
    The “source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for makin\b modifications to it.  “Object code” means any non-source form of a 
    work.
    A “Standard Interface” means an interface that either is an officia\f standard defined by a reco\bnized standards body, or, in the case of interfaces 
    specified for a particu\far pro\brammin\b \fan\bua\be, one that is wide\fy used amon\u\b deve\fopers workin\b in that \fan\bua\be.
