Section 1-Product Overview
Feature
•
Faster wireless network - The DIR-618 provides up to 300Mbps* wireless connection with other 802.11n
wireless clients. This capability allows users to participate in real-time activities online, such as video
streaming, online gaming, and real-time audio.
• Compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g Devices - The DIR-618 is still fully compatible with the IEEE 802.11b
and 802.11g standard, so it can connect with existing 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g PCI, USB and Cardbus
adapters.
• Advaced firewall feature- The web-based user interface displays many advanced network management
features including :
• Content Filter - Easily applied content filtering based on MAC Address, and/or parent control.
• Filter Scheduling - These filters can be scheduled to be active on certain days or for a duration of
hours or minutes.
• Secure Multiple/Concurrent Sessions - The DIR-618 can pass through VPN sessions. It supports
multiple and concurrent IPSec and PPTP sessions, so users behind the DIR-618 can securely
access corporate networks.
• User-friendly Setup Wizard - Through its easy-to-use Web-based user interface, the DIR-618 lets you control
what information is accessible to those on the wireless network, whether from the Internet or from your company’s
server. Configure your router to your specific settings within minutes.
* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g and Draft 802.11n specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and
environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate.
Environmental conditions will adversely affect wireless signal range.

Section 2-Installation
Installation
this section will walk you through the installation process. Placement of the router is very important. Please do not
put the router in an enclosed area such as closet, cabinet, or in the attic or garage.
Before you Begin
Please configure the router with the computer that was last connected directly to your modem. Also, you can only
use the Ethernet port on your modem. If you were using the USB connection before using the router, then you must
turn off your modem, disconnect the USB cable and connect an Ethernet cable to the Internet port on the router, and
then turn the modem back on. In some cases, you may need to call your ISP to change connection types (USB to
Ethernet).
If you have DSL and are connecting via PPPoE, make sure you disable or uninstall any PPPoE software such as
WinPoet, Broadjump, or Enternet 300 from your computer or you will not be able to connect to the Internet.

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 difference. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative effect 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 (fish tanks),
mirrors, file 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 in not in use.

Wall Mounting Your Device
You can mount the DIR-618 to a wall or a partition for easy and convenient placement of your device.
To wall mount your device,
A. Screw the provided screws with the equipment to the wall or partition where the device to be placed.
B. Place the mounting holes on the bottom of the device over the screws to mount it to the wall or partition.
C. Connect your cables to the device.

Section 2 - Installation
Connect to Cable/DSL/Satellite Modem
If you are connecting the router to a cable/DSL/satellite modem, please follow the steps below:
1. Place the router in an open and central location.
2. Turn the power off on your modem. If there is no on/off switch, then unplug the modem’s power adapter. Shut down
your computer.
3. Unplug the Ethernet cable (that connects your computer to your modem) from your computer and place it into the
WAN port on the router.
4. Plug an Ethernet cable into one of the four LAN ports on the router. Plug the other end into the Ethernet port on
your computer.
5. Turn on or plug in your modem. Wait for the modem to boot (about 30 seconds).
6. Plug the power adapter to the router and connect to an outlet or power strip. Wait about 30 seconds for the router
to boot.
7. Turn on your computer.
8. Verify the link lights on the router. The power light, WAN light, and the LAN light (the port that your computer is
plugged into) should be lit. If not, make sure your computer, modem, and router are powered on and verify the cable
connections are correct.
9. Skip to page 16 to congure your router.

Section 2 - Installation
Connect to Another Router
If you are connecting the D-Link router to another router to use as a wireless access point and/or switch, you will have
to do the following before connecting the router to your network:
• Disable UPnP
• Disable DHCP
• Change the LAN IP address to an available address on your network. The LAN ports on the router cannot
accept a DHCP address from your other router.
To connect to another router, please follow the steps below:
1. Plug the power into the router. Connect one of your computers to the router (LAN port) using an Ethernet cable.
Make sure your IP address on the computer is 192.168.0.xxx (where xxx is between 2 and 254). Please see the
Networking Basics section for more information. If you need to change the settings, write down your existing settings
before making any changes. In most cases, your computer should be set to receive an IP address automatically in
which case you will not have to do anything to your computer.
2. Open a web browser and enter http://192.168.0.1 and press Enter. When the login window appears, set the user
name to admin and leave the password box empty. Click OK to continue.
3. Uncheck the Enable UPnP checkbox. Click Save Settings to continue.
™
4. Uncheck the Enable DHCP Server server checkbox. Click Save Settings to continue.
5. Under Router Settings, enter an available IP address and the subnet mask of your network. Click Save Settings to
save your settings. Use this new IP address to access the conguration utility of the router in the future. Close the
browser and change your computer’s IP settings back to the original values as in Step 1.

Section 2 - Installation
6. Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the router and reconnect your computer to your network.
7. Connect an Ethernet cable in one of the LAN ports of the router and connect it to your other router. Do not plug
anything into the WAN port of the D-Link router.
8. You may now use the other three LAN ports to connect other Ethernet devices and computers. To congure your
wireless network, open a web browser and enter the IP address you assigned to the router. Refer to the Conguration
and Wireless Security sections for more information on setting up your wireless network.
