Section 2 - Installation

Access Point Mode

In the Access Point mode, the DAP-1350 acts as a central connection point for any computer (client) that has a 802.11n or backward-compatible 802.11b/g wireless network interface and is within range of the AP. Clients must use the same SSID (wireless network name) and channel as the AP in order to connect. If wireless security is enabled on the AP, the client will need to enter a password to connect to the AP. In Access Point mode, multiple clients can connect to the AP at the same time.
15D-Link DAP-1350 User Manual
Section 2 - Installation

Wireless Client Mode

In the Wireless Client mode, the DAP-1350 acts as a wireless network adapter for your Ethernet-enabled device (such as a game console or a laptop). Connect your Ethernet-enabled device to the AP using an Ethernet cable. The AP Client mode can support one wired client.
Example: Connect a gaming console using an Ethernet cable to the DAP-1350. The unit is set to Wireless Client mode which will wirelessly connect to a wireless router on your network.
16D-Link DAP-1350 User Manual
Section 2 - Installation

Router Mode

In the Router mode, the DAP-1350 connects to a broadband modem. In this mode, the DAP-1350 also acts as a router for wireless clients on your network and provides NAT (Network Address Translation) and a DHCP server to generate IP addresses. NAT and the DHCP server allow many computers to share the same Internet connection.

Wireless Installation Considerations

The D-Link wireless access point lets you access your network using a wireless connection from virtually anywhere within the operating range of your wireless network. 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 D-Link access point 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 difference. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position access points, wireless access points, 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 2.4GHz 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 2.4GHz phone base is as far away from your wireless devices as possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone is not in use.

Virtual Server
The DAP-1350 can be congured as a virtual server so that remote users accessing Web or FTP services via the public IP address can be automatically redirected to local servers in the LAN (Local Area Network).
The DAP-1350 rewall feature lters out unrecognized packets to protect your LAN network so all computers networked with the DAP-1350 are invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of the LAN computers accessible from the Internet by enabling Virtual Server. Depending on the requested service, the DAP-1350 redirects the external service request to the appropriate server within the LAN network.
The DAP-1350 is also capable of port-redirection meaning incoming trafc to a particular port may be redirected to a different port on the server computer.
Each virtual service that is created will be listed at the bottom of the screen in the Virtual Servers List. There are pre-dened virtual services already in the table. You may use them by enabling them and assigning the server IP to use that particular virtual service.

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) System is a simplied method for securing your wireless network during the “Initial setup” as well as the “Add New Device” processes. The Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA) has certied it across different products as well as manufactures. The process is just as easy, as depressing a button for the Push-Button Method or correctly entering the 8-digit code for the Pin-Code Method. The time reduction in setup and ease of use are quite benecial, while the highest wireless Security setting of WPA2 is automatically used.

A PIN is a unique number that can be used to add the router to an existing network or to create a new network. The default PIN may be printed on the bottom of the router. For extra security, a new PIN can be generated. You can restore the default PIN at any time. Only the Administrator (“admin” account) can change or reset the PIN.

The status LED on the router will ash three times if the device has been successfully added to the network.
There are several ways to add a wireless device to your network. A “registrar” controls access to the wireless network. A registrar only allows devices onto the wireless network if you have entered the PIN, or pressed a special Wi-Fi Protected Setup button on the device. The router acts as a registrar for the network, although other devices may act as a registrar as well.
