Introduction

The D-Link DI-634M Wireless 108G MIMO Router is an 802.11g high-performance, wireless router that supports high-speed wireless networking at home, at work or in public places.

Unlike most routers, the DI-634M provides data transfers at up to 108Mbps* (compared to the standard 54Mbps) when used with other D-Link Wireless 108G MIMO and AirPlus Xtreme G™ Products. The 802.11g standard is backwards compatible with 802.11b products. This means that you do not need to change your entire network to maintain connectivity. You may sacriﬁce some of 802.11g’s speed when you mix 802.11b and

802.11g devices, but you will not lose the ability to communicate when you incorporate the 802.11g standard into your 802.11b network. You may choose to slowly change your network by gradually replacing the 802.11b devices with 802.11g devices .

In addition to offering faster data transfer speeds when used with other 802.11g products, the DI-634M has the newest, strongest, most advanced security features available today. When used with other 802.11g WPA (WiFi Protected Access) compatible products in a network, the security features include:

Introduction

WPA: Wi-Fi Protected Access authorizes and identiﬁes users based on a secret key that changes automatically at a regular interval. WPA uses TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) to change the temporal key every 10,000 packets (a packet is a kind of message transmitted over a network.) This insures much greater security than the standard WEP security. By contrast, the older WEP encryption required the keys to be changed manually.

The DI-634M router includes an easy-to-use installation wizard located on the D-Link CD. Simply insert the CD into your computer and follow the on-screen instructions. Your router will automatically be conﬁgured.

Wireless Basics

D-Link wireless products are based on industry standards to provide easy-to-use and compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within your home, business or public access wireless networks. D-Link wireless products will allow you access to the data you want, when and where you want it. You will be able to enjoy the freedom that wireless networking brings.

A WLAN is a cellular computer network that transmits and receives data with radio signals instead of wires. WLANs are used increasingly in both home and ofﬁce environments, and public areas such as airports, coffee shops and universities. Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are helping people to work and communicate more efﬁciently. Increased mobility and the absence of cabling and other ﬁxed infrastructure have proven to be beneﬁcial for many users.

Wireless users can use the same applications they use on a wired network. Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems support the same protocols as Ethernet adapter cards.

Wireless Basics

People use wireless LAN technology for many different purposes:

Mobility - Productivity increases when people have access to data in any location within the operating range of the WLAN. Management decisions based on real-time information can signiﬁcantly improve worker efﬁciency.

Low Implementation Costs – WLANs are easy to set up, manage, change and relocate. Networks that frequently change can beneﬁt from WLANs ease of implementation. WLANs can operate in locations where installation of wiring may be impractical.

Installation and Network Expansion - Installing a WLAN system can be fast and easy and can eliminate the need to pull cable through walls and ceilings. Wireless technology allows the network to go where wires cannot go - even outside the home or ofﬁce.

Scalability – WLANs can be conﬁgured in a variety of topologies to meet the needs of speciﬁc applications and installations. Conﬁgurations are easily changed and range from peer-to-peer networks suitable for a small number of users to larger infrastructure networks to accommodate hundreds or thousands of users, depending on the number of wireless devices deployed.

Inexpensive Solution - Wireless network devices are as competitively priced as conventional Ethernet network devices.

Standards-based Technology

The DI-634M Wireless 108G MIMO Router utilizes the 802.11g standard.

The IEEE 802.11g standard is an extension of the 802.11b standard. It increases the data rate up to 54Mbps* within the 2.4GHz band, utilizing OFDM technology.

This means that in most environments, within the speciﬁed range of this device, you will be able to transfer large ﬁles quickly or even watch a movie in MPEG format over your network without noticeable delays. This technology works by transmitting highspeed digital data over a radio wave utilizing OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) technology. OFDM works by splitting the radio signal into multiple smaller sub-signals that are then transmitted simultaneously at different frequencies to the receiver. OFDM reduces the amount of crosstalk (interference) in signal transmissions.

The DI-634M is backwards compatible with 802.11b devices. This means that if you have an existing 802.11b network, the devices in that network will be compatible with

802.11g devices at speeds of up to 11Mbps in the 2.4GHz range.

Wireless Basics

Installation Considerations

The D-Link DI-634M Wireless 108G MIMO Router lets you access your network, using a wireless connection, from virtually anywhere within its operating range. Keep in mind, however, 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 DI-634M and other network

devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your D-Link wireless product’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 just over 2 feet (.6 meters) 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 can impede the wireless signal - a solid metal door or aluminum

studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position wireless devices and computers with wireless adapters so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways and not other materials.

4 Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical

devices or appliances that generate extreme RF noise.

WCN Wizard

If your PC’s operating system is Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) or later and you are using Windows Internet Explorer (IE) as your browser, you can use Windows Connect Now (WCN) technology to help conﬁgure the router’s wireless security settings.

Wireless Network Setup Wizard

Before you can use the router’s WCN Wizard, you must ﬁrst execute the Wireless Network Setup Wizard on your PC. If you have not already done so, go to the Windows Control Panel and select Wireless Network Setup Wizard. The Wireless Network Setup Wizard gives you the choices: “Use a USB ﬂash drive” and “Set up a network manually”. Choose “Set up a network manually”. In fact, you will not have to do the set-up manually; it will be done with the WCN ActiveX Control.

WCN ActiveX Control

The WCN ActiveX Control provides the WCN link between your PC and the router via the browser that communicates wireless conﬁguration data without a USB ﬂash drive. The browser will attempt to download the WCN ActiveX Control, if it is not already available on your PC. For this action to succeed, you must already have a WAN connection, and the browser’s internet security setting must be Medium or lower (select Tools > Internet Options > Security > Custom Level > Medium).

When the necessary preparations are complete, the WCN technology will propagate the wireless network settings from your PC to the router. Then you will have to reboot the router for the settings to take effect.

Note that WCN only sets a few of the wireless options. You will still need to go to the Home > Wireless page to set other wireless options such as Super G Mode and transmission rate.

Using the Conﬁguration Menu

DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Control Protocol. The DI-634M has a built-in DHCP server. The DHCP Server will automatically assign an IP address to the computers on the LAN/private network. Be sure to set your computers to be DHCP clients by setting their TCP/IP settings to “Obtain an IP Address Automatically.” When you turn your computers on, they will automatically load the proper TCP/IP settings provided by the DI-634M. The DHCP Server will automatically allocate an unused IP address from the IP address pool to the requesting computer. You must specify the starting and ending address of the IP address pool.

DHCP Server:

DHCP IP Address

Range:

Lease TIme:

Always Broadcast:

Select Enabled or Disabled. The default setting is Enabled.

Enter the starting and ending IP address for the DHCP server’s IP assignment.

Select the amount of time of the DHCP lease from the drop-down menu.

If one or more computers or devices fail to obtain an IP address from the router, it may have an old DHCP client that incorrectly turns off the broadcast ﬂag of DHCP packets. Enabling this option will cause the router to always broadcast its responses to all clients, thereby working around the problem. This will add broadcast trafﬁc to the network.
