Wireless Installation Considerations
This D-Link device can connect to your wireless network from anywhere within the operating range of your wireless network. However, 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. Minimize the number of walls and ceilings between your adapter and other network devices (such as your Network Camera) - each wall or
ceiling can reduce your adapter’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters).
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 your 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 dierence. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may weaken the wireless signal. Try to position your access points,
wireless routers, and other networking devices where 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 at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters away from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
5. If you are using 2.4GHz cordless phones or other radio frequency sources (such as microwave ovens), your wireless connection may degrade
dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4GHz phone base is as far away from your wireless devices as possible. The base transmits
a signal even if the phone in not in use.
Note: The DCS-6010L has a metal underside and mounting bracket.
The metal underside and mounting bracket will aect directional WiFi signal strength adversely if not positioned correctly

Zero Conguration Setup
If you have a mydlink-enabled Cloud Router, you can take advantage of Zero Conguration. Zero Conguration automatically
congures your camera's settings for you, and adds it to your mydlink account automatically. This type of setup allows you to
set up your camera by simply plugging it in and connecting it to your router.
Connect your camera to your mydlink-enabled Cloud Router and Zero Conguration will automatically congure your DCS-6010L
and automatically add the camera to your mydlink account. After the short time it takes to do this you can remotely access
your camera from the www.mydlink.com website to manage and monitor your DCS-6010L.

Optional: WPS Wireless Connection
Alternatively, if your router supports WPS, you can use the WPS button on the
camera to easily create a secure wireless connection to your network.
To create a WPS connection:
Step 1
Press and hold the WPS button for approximately 5-6 seconds. The WPS LED will
blink.
Step 2
Within 60 seconds press the WPS button on your router. On some routers, you
may need to log in to the web interface and click on an on-screen button to
activate the WPS feature. If you are not sure where the WPS button is on your
router, please refer to your router’s User Manual.
WPS ButtonWPS LED
The DCS-6010L will automatically create a wireless connection to your router.
While connecting, the status LED will ash. When the connection process is
complete, the status LED will turn solid.
You can now remove the Ethernet cable by removing the camera cover and
disconnecting the Ethernet cable. See "Internal Ports" on page 8 for more details.
Note: If your router does not support WPS, you can still use the wired connection
method on the previous page. After Zero Conguration setup is complete, your
router's wireless settings will be automatically transferred to the camera.
