Web-based Configuration
If you need to configure the DWL-810, follow the steps below:
Before You Begin the Configuration
It’s best to use a computer (with an Ethernet adapter) that is connected directly to the
DWL-810 for configuration. The default IP address for the DWL-810 is 192.168.0.30
with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. You will need to assign your computer a Static
IP address within the same range as the DWL-810’s IP address in order to configure
the DWL-810. See the Appendix in this Quick Installation Guide if you need
assistance in as si g nin g a Sta tic IP a d dress.
Open your Web
browser and type
“http://192.168.0.30”
into the URL address
box. Then press the Enter
or Return key.
The logon pop-up
screen will appear.

You have completed the Configuration of the
DWL-810!
APPENDIX
Assigning a Static IP Address in Windows
To assign a Static IP Address to the laptop or computer that you are using to configure
the DWL-810, please do the following:
(The following illustrations show Windows XP with the D-Link DWL-650+
Wireless Cardbus Adapter. Other operating systems and other wireless
network adapters will have similar procedures for assigning a Static IP
ddress.)
If the computer you are using for configuration already has a Static IP
Address, be sure to make a note of it. You will need to re-input the
original Static IP Address after you configure the DWL-810.
