Wireless Basics
D-Link wireless products are based on industry standards to provide easy-touse and compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within your home, business
or public access wireless networks. Strictly adhering to the IEEE standard, the
D-Link wireless family of products will allow you to securely access the data
you want, when and where you want it. You will be able to enjoy the freedom
that wireless networking delivers.
A wireless local area network (WLAN) is a cellular computer network that
transmits and receives data with radio signals instead of wires. Wireless LANs
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.
Under many circumstances, it may be desirable for mobile network devices to
link to a conventional Ethernet LAN in order to use servers, printers or an
Internet connection supplied through the wired LAN. A Wireless Router is a
device used to provide this link.
6
Wireless Basics (continued)
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 (Wireless Local Area Networks) are
easy to set up, manage, change and relocate. Networks that frequently change,
both physically and logically, can benefit from WLANs ease of implementation.
WLANs can operate in locations where installation of wiring may be impractical.
Installation Speed and Simplicity - Installing a wireless LAN system can
be fast and easy and can eliminate the need to pull cable through walls and
ceilings.
Network Expansion - Wireless technology allows the network to go
where wires cannot.
Scalability – Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) can be configured in a
variety of topologies to meet the needs of specific applications or existing
infrastructures. Configurations are easily changed and range from peer-topeer 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 Basics (continued)
The DWL-120 is compatible with the D-Link Air 802.11b family of products
which include:
2.4GHz Wireless Cardbus Adapters used with laptop
computers (DWL-650)
2.4GHz Wireless PCI cards used with desktop computers
(DWL-520)
Wireless Access Points (DWL-900AP)
Standards-Based Technology
Based on the IEEE 802.11b standard, the DWL-120 is interoperable with
existing compatible 2.4GHz wireless technology with data transfer speeds of
up to 11Mbps.

Wireless Basics (continued)
Installation Considerations
The D-Link Air DWL-120 lets you access your network, using a wireless
connection, from virtually anywhere. 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 antenna of the DWL-120 in an upright position.
2.
Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the DWL-120 and
other network devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce
your D-Link Air Wireless product’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.)
Position your receiving devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is
minimized.
3. 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! Try to make sure that devices are positioned so that the signal will
travel straight through a wall or ceiling for better reception.
4. Building Materials make a difference - 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.
5. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical
devices or appliances that generate RF noise.

Getting Started
With its default settings, the DWL-120 will connect with other
D-Link Air products, right out of the box.
There are basically two modes of networking:
Infrastructure – using an Access Point, such as the DWL-900AP+.
Ad-Hoc – directly connecting to another computer, for peer-to-peer
communication, using wireless network adapters on each computer, such
as two or more DWL-120 wireless network USB adapters.
On the following pages we will show you an example of an Infrastructure
Network and an Ad-Hoc Network.
An Infrastructure network contains an Access Point or Router. The
Infrastructure Network example shown on the following page contains the
following D-Link network devices (your existing network may be comprised
of other devices):
A wireless Router - D-Link AirPro DI-764
A laptop computer with a wireless adapter -
D-Link AirPlus DWL-650+
A desktop computer with another D-Link Air DWL-120
A Cable modem - D-Link DCM-200

Getting Started
Setting up a Wireless Ad Hoc Network
Install the D-Link Air DWL-120 Wireless USB adapter into the desktop
computer. See the Quick Installation Guide included with the product for
installation instructions.
Install a wireless network adapter into the laptop computer. In the
example above the DWL-650+ or DWL-650 may be installed into a
laptop computer. See the Quick Installation Guide included with the
product.
Set the wireless configuration for the adapters to Ad-Hoc mode, set
the adapters to the same channel, and assign an IP Address to each
computer on the Ad-Hoc network. (See Box below)
IP Address
When assigning IP Addresses to the computers on the network, please
remember that the IP Address for each computer must be in the same
IP Address range as all the computers in the network, and the subnet
mask must be exactly the same for all the computers in the network.
For example: If the first computer is assigned an IP Address of 192.168.0.2
with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0, then the second computer can be
assigned an IP Address of 192.168.0.3 with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0,
etc.
IMPORTANT: If computers or other devices are assigned the same IP
Address, one or more of the devices may not be visible on the network.

Troubleshooting
2. What variables may cause my wireless products to lose reception?
D-Link products let you access your network from virtually anywhere you want.
However, the positioning of the products within your environment will affect the
wireless range. Please refer to Installation Considerations in the Wireless
Basics section of this manual for further information about the most advantageous placement of your D-Link wireless products.
3. Why does my wireless connection keep dropping?
Antenna Orientation- Try different antenna orientations for the DWL-
120. Try to keep the antenna at least 6 inches away from the wall or
other objects.
If you are using 2.4GHz cordless phones, X-10 equipment or other home
security systems, ceiling fans, and lights, your wireless connection will
degrade dramatically or drop altogether. Try changing the Channel on
your Router, Access Point and Wireless adapter to a different Channel
to avoid interference.
Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet) from electrical devices that
generate RF noise, like microwaves, Monitors, electric motors, etc.
4. Why can’t I get a wireless connection?
If you have enabled Encryption on the DWL-120, you must also enable encryption on all wireless devices in the network in order to establish a wireless connection.
The Encryption settings are: 64 or 128 bit. Make sure that the encryp-
tion bit level is the same on the Router and the DWL-120.
Make sure that the SSID on the Router (if you have one in your network)
and the DWL-120 are exactly the same. If they are not, wireless connection will not be established. The default SSID is default.

of Purchaser contained in, stored on, or integrated with any product
returned to D-Link pursuant to this warranty.
Any package returned to D-Link without an RMA number will be rejected
and shipped back to Purchaser at Purchaser's expense, and D-Link
reserves the right in such a case to levy a reasonable handling
charge in addition mailing or shipping costs.
Software:
Warranty service for software products may be obtained by contacting a
D-Link office within the applicable warranty period. A list of D-Link
offices is provided at the back of this manual, together with a copy of the
Registration Card. If a Registration Card for the product in question has
not been returned to a D-Link office, then a proof of purchase (such as a
copy of the dated purchase invoice) must be provided when requesting
warranty service. The term "purchase" in this software warranty refers
to the purchase transaction and resulting licence to use such software.
D-Link warrants that its software products will perform in substantial
conformance with the applicable product documentation provided by
D-Link with such software product, for a period of ninety (90) days from
the date of purchase from D-Link or its Authorized Reseller. D-Link
warrants the magnetic media, on which D-Link provides its software
product, against failure during the same warranty period. This warranty
applies to purchased software, and to replacement software provided by
D-Link pursuant to this warranty, but shall not apply to any update or
replacement which may be provided for download via the Internet, or to
any update which may otherwise be provided free of charge.
D-Link's sole obligation under this software warranty shall be to replace
any defective software product with product which substantially conforms
to D-Link's applicable product documentation. Purchaser assumes
responsibility for the selection of appropriate application and
system/platform software and associated reference materials. D-Link
makes no warranty that its software products will work in combination
with any hardware, or any application or system/platform software
product provided by any third party, excepting only such products as are
expressly represented, in D-Link's applicable product documentation as
being compatible. D-Link's obligation under this warranty shall be a
reasonable effort to provide compatibility, but D-Link shall have no
obligation to provide compatibility when there is fault in the third-party
hardware or software. D-Link makes no warranty that operation of its
software products will be uninterrupted or absolutely error-free, and no
warranty that all defects in the software product, within or without the
scope of D-Link's applicable product documentation, will be corrected.
