Section 1 - Product Overview

Introduction

The D-Link Wireless N150 Wi-Fi Router allows users to access worldwide mobile broadband networks. Once connected, users can transfer data and stream media.

Section 2 - Installation

Installation

This section will guide you through the installation process. Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the router in an enclosed area such as a closet, cabinet, or in an attic or garage.

Connect to Your Network

Note: Ensure that your DWR-111 Wireless N150 Wi-Fi Router is disconnected and powered o before performing the installation steps below.

1. Connect a USB modem to the USB port on the back of the router.

2. Insert a LAN network cable into the LAN port on the back of the router. Plug the other end of the LAN cable into the LAN port of your computer

or laptop. The Ethernet LED will turn green if the Ethernet connection is successfully established.

Note: The DWR-111 Wireless N150 Wi-Fi Router LAN Port is “Auto-MDI/MDIX.” Therefore, patch or crossover Ethernet cables can be used.

3. Congure the device using the setup utility.

Section 2 - Installation

Wireless Installation Considerations

The DWR-111 can be accessed using a wireless connection from virtually anywhere within the operating range of your wireless network. Keep in mind, however, that the quantity, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through, may limit the range. Ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or oce. The key to maximizing the wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:

1. Minimize the number of walls and ceilings between the D-Link router and other network devices. Each wall or ceiling can reduce your adapter’s range from 3 to 90 feet (1 to 30 meters).

2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (0.5 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. Try to position access points, wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through open doorways and drywall. Materials such as glass, metal, brick, insulation, concrete and water can aect wireless performance. Large objects such as sh tanks, mirrors, le cabinets, metal doors and aluminum studs may also have a negative eect on range.

4. If you are using 2.4 GHz cordless phones, make sure that the 2.4 GHz phone base is as far away from your wireless device as possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone in not in use. In some cases, cordless phones, X-10 wireless devices, and electronic equipment such as ceiling fans, uorescent lights, and home security systems may dramatically degrade wireless connectivity.

Note: The DWR-111 supports several kinds of WAN interfaces, allowing you to assign either a WAN or a WWAN(3G) connection as the Backup WAN. If the Primary WAN is down or unavailable, congure the Backup WAN to Enable, and all the trac will be routed through Backup WAN. This feature is called WAN Failover. You can use WAN Failover if you need redundancy to your Internet connection or any other network.
