Section 1 - Product Overview
• Reliable and Versatile - The D-Link DWR-925 lets you connect to your 3G / 4G mobile connection with fast
downlink speeds of up to 100 Mbps and uplink speeds up to 50 Mbps, giving you the speed you need for fast,
responsive Internet access. The auto-failover feature automatically switches between mobile broadband and
xed-line broadband to ensure you stay connected to the Internet in case one connection fails. The serial port
connects to a 56K modem as a failover option or can be congured as a console port if necessary, providing
extra exibility and versatility.
• Virtual Private Network Features - The DWR-925 lets you create a secure high speed Virtual Private Network
(VPN) for access over the Internet or a wired network connection. It supports IPSec, PPTP, L2TP, and GRE protocols
in Server Mode, and also handles pass-through trac. Advanced VPN conguration options can be set using the
comprehensive setup wizard and includes multiple encryption options, key management, negotiation modes,
and VPN authentication support using an internal user database.
• Extended Whole Home Coverage - Powered by Wireless N technology, this high performance router provides
superior Whole Home Coverage while reducing dead spots. The router is designed for use in bigger homes and
for users who demand higher performance networking. Add a Wireless N
notebook or desktop adapter and stay
connected to your network from virtually anywhere in your home.
• Total Network Security - The Wireless N router supports all of the latest wireless security features to prevent
unauthorized access, be it from over the wireless network or from the Internet. Support for WPA/WPA2 standards
ensures that you’ll be able to use the best possible encryption method, regardless of your client devices. In
addition, this router utilizes dual-active rewalls (SPI and NAT) to prevent potential attacks from across the
Internet.
• Quality of Service (QoS) - For smooth, uninterrupted streaming, this router includes a Quality of Service (QoS)
engine that prioritizes according to data type so your VoIP calls and online gaming stay smooth and responsive.
* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n specications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental
factors, including volume of network trac, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental conditions will
adversely aect wireless signal range.

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.
Before you Begin
1. Ensure that your DWR-925 is disconnected and powered o.
2. Insert a standard (U)SIM card into the SIM card slot on the back of the router as indicated by the SIM card logo next
to the slot. The gold contacts should face downwards.
Caution: Always unplug/power down the router before installing or removing the SIM card. Never insert or remove
the SIM card while the router is in use.
3. Connect the power adapter to the socket on the back panel of your DWR-925. Plug the other end of the power
adapter into a wall outlet or power strip and turn the device on.
a. The Status LED will light up to indicate that power has been supplied to the router.
b. The LEDs on the front panel will ash on and o as the DWR-925 performs initialization and Internet connection
processes.

Section 2 - Installation
Wireless Installation Considerations
The D-Link wireless router 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 router 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 dierence. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative eect on 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.
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 2.4 GHz 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 2.4 GHz 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.

spectrum to handle communication between clients. Some
channels in your area may experience interference from
other electronic devices. Choose the clearest channel to help
optimize the performance and coverage of your wireless
network, or enable Auto Channel Scan for the router to
