Wireless Security
Wireless security is a key concern for any wireless network installed. Unlike any other networking method wireless networks will broadcast it’s presence for anyone to connect to it. Today, wireless security has advanced to a level where it is virtually impenetrable. There are mainly two forms of wireless encryption and they are called Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). WEP was the rst security method developed. It is a low level encryption but better than now encryption. WPA is the newest encryption standard and with the advanced WPA2 standard wireless networks have nally reach a point where the security is strong enough to give users the peace of mind when installing wireless networks.
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
WEP provides two variations called Open System and Shared Key.
Open System will send a request to the access point and if the key used matches the one congured on the access point, the access point will return a success
message back to the wireless client. If the key does not match the one congured on the access point, the access point will deny the connection request from the wireless client.
Shared Key will send a request to the access point and if the key used matches the one congured on the access point, the access point will send a challenge to the client. The client will then again send a conrmation of the same key back to the access point where the access point will either return a successful or a denial packet back to the wireless client.
Encryption:
Use the radio button to disable or enable encryption.
Key Type*:
Key Size:
Key Index (1-4):
Select HEX or ASCII.
Select 64 Bits or 128 Bits.
Select the 1st through the 4th key to be the active key.
Key:
Input up to four keys for encryption. You will select one of these keys in the Key Index drop-down menu.
**Hexadecimal (HEX) digits consist of the numbers 0-9 and the letters A-F. *ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a code that represents English letters using numbers ranging from 0-127.

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA / WPA2)
WPA was created by the Wi-Fi Alliance to address the limitations and weaknesses found in WEP. This protocol is mainly based on the 802.11i standard. There are also two variations found in WPA called WPA-Personal (PSK) and WPA-Enterprise (EAP).
WPA-EAP requires the user to install a Radius Server on the network for authentication. WPA-Personal does not require the user to install a Radius Server on the network.
Comparing WPA-PSK with WPA-EAP, WPA-PSK is seen as a weaker authentication but comparing WPA-PSK to WEP, WPA-PSK is far more secure than WEP. WPA-EAP is the highest level of wireless security a user can use for wireless today.
WPA2 is an upgrade of WPA. WPA2 yet again solves some possible security issues found in WPA. WPA2 has two variations called WPA2-Personal (PSK) and WPA2-Enterprise (EAP) which is the same as found with WPA.
WPA Mode:
Cipher Type:
Group Key Update:
Pass Phrase:
When WPA-Personal is selected for Authentication type, you must also select a WPA mode from the drop-down menu: AUTO (WPA or WPA2), WPA2 Only, or WPA Only. WPA and WPA2 use dierent algorithms. AUTO (WPA or WPA2) allows you to use both WPA and WPA2.
When you select WPA-Personal, you must also select AUTO, AES, or TKIP from the pull down menu.
Select the interval during which the group key will be valid. The default value of 1800 is recommended.
When you select WPA-Personal, please enter a Pass Phrase in the corresponding eld.

Knowledge Base
Wireless Basics
D-Link wireless products are based on industry standards to provide high-speed wireless connectivity that is easy to use within your home, business or public access wireless networks. D-Link wireless products provides you with access to the data you want, whenever and wherever you want it. Enjoy the freedom that wireless networking can bring to you.
WLAN use is not only increasing in both home and oce environments, but in public areas as well, such as airports, coee shops and universities. Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are allowing people to work and communicate more eciently. Increased mobility and the absence of cabling and other types of xed infrastructure have proven to be benecial to many users.
Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems support the same protocols as Ethernet adapter cards, allowing wireless users to use the same applications as those used on a wired network.
People use WLAN technology for many dierent purposes:
Mobility - productivity increases when people can have access to data in any location within the operating range of their WLAN. Management decisions based on real-time information can signicantly improve the eciency of a worker.
Low implementation costs - WLANs are easy to set up, manage, change and relocate. Networks that frequently change can benet from WLAN’s ease of implementation. WLANs can operate in locations where installation of wiring may be impractical.
Installation and network expansion - by avoiding the complications of troublesome cables, a WLAN system can be fast and easy during installation, especially since it can eliminate the need to pull cable through walls and ceilings. Wireless technology provides more versatility by extending the network beyond the home or oce.
Inexpensive solution - wireless network devices are as competitively priced as conventional Ethernet network devices. The DAP-2660 saves money by providing users with multi-functionality congurable in four dierent modes.
Scalability - Congurations can be 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.

Wireless Installation Considerations
The D-Link 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 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
3. 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.
4. Building Materials make a dierence. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative eect on the range. Try to position access points, wireless routers, 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.
5. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
6. 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 in not in use.

Troubleshooting
This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and operation of the DAP-2660. Read the following descriptions if you are having problems. (The examples below are illustrated in Windows® XP. If you have a dierent operating system, the screenshots on your computer will look similar to the following examples.)
Why can’t I access the web-based conguration utility?
When entering the IP address of the D-Link access point (192.168.0.50 for example), you are not connecting to a website on the Internet or have to be connected to the Internet. The device has the utility built-in to a ROM chip in the device itself. Your computer must be on the same IP subnet to connect to the web-based utility.
Make sure you have an updated Java-enabled web browser. We recommend the following:
Internet Explorer 7.0 or higher, Chrome, Firefox, or Safari 4 or higher
Verify physical connectivity by checking for solid link lights on the device. If you do not get a solid link light, try using a dierent cable or connect to a dierent port on the device if possible. If the computer is turned o, the link light may not be on.
Disable any internet security software running on the computer. Software rewalls such as Zone Alarm, Black Ice, Sygate, Norton Personal Firewall, and Windows® rewall may block access to the conguration pages. Check the help les included with your rewall software for more information on disabling or conguring it.
Congure your Internet settings:
Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel. Double-click the Internet Options Icon. From the Security tab, click the button to restore the settings to their defaults. Click the Connection tab and set the dial-up option to Never Dial a Connection. Click the LAN Settings button. Make sure nothing is checked. Click OK. Go to the Advanced tab and click the button to restore these settings to their defaults. Click OK three times. Close your web browser (if open) and open it.
Access the web management. Open your web browser and enter the IP address of your D-Link access point in the address bar. This should open the login page for your the web management.
If you still cannot access the conguration, unplug the power to the access point for 10 seconds and plug back in. Wait about 30 seconds and try accessing the conguration. If you have multiple computers, try connecting using a dierent computer.
What can I do if I forgot my password?
If you forgot your password, you must reset your access point. Unfortunately, this process will change all your settings back to the factory defaults.
To reset the access point, locate the reset button (hole) on the rear panel of the unit. With the access point powered on, use a paperclip to hold the button down for 10 seconds. Release the button and the access point will go through its reboot process. Wait about 30 seconds to access the access point. The default IP address is 192.168.0.50. When logging in, the username is admin and leave the password box empty.

How to check your IP address?
After you install your network adapter, by default, the TCP/IP settings should be set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server (i.e. wireless router) automatically. To verify your IP address, please follow the steps below.
Click on Start > Run. In the run box type cmd and click OK.
At the prompt, type ipcong and press Enter.
This will display the IP address, subnet mask, and the default gateway of your adapter.
If the address is 0.0.0.0, check your adapter installation, security settings, and the settings on your router. Some rewall software programs may block a DHCP request on newly installed adapters.
If you are connecting to a wireless network at a hotspot (e.g. hotel, coee shop, airport), please contact an employee or administrator to verify their wireless network settings.

How to statically assign an IP address?
If you are not using a DHCP capable gateway/router, or you need to assign a static IP address, please follow the steps below:
Step 1:
Windows® 2000: Click on Start > Settings > Control Panel > Network Connections Windows XP: Click on Start > Control Panel > Network Connections Windows Vista®: Click on Start > Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center > Manage network connections
Step 2:
Right-click on the Local Area Connection which represents your network adapter and select Properties.
Step 3:
Highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties.
Step 4:
Click Use the following IP address and enter an IP address that is on the same subnet as your network or the LAN IP address on your router. Example: 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 Default Gateway the same as the LAN IP address of your router (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 or you may enter a DNS server from your ISP.
Step 5:
Click OK twice to save your settings.
