If any of the above items are missing, please contact your reseller.
It’s best to use a computer (with an Ethernet adapter) that is connected to a
switch for configuring the DWL-2200AP. The default IP address for the DWL-
2200AP is 192.168.0.50 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-
2200AP’s IP address for the purpose of configuring the DWL-2200AP. See the
Appendix if you need assistance in assigning a Static IP address for your
network adapter.
Using a power supply
with a different voltage
rating will damage and void
the warranty of this product.

A.
First, connect the power adapter to the receptor at the back panel of the
DWL-2200AP and then plug the other end of the power adapter to a wall outlet
or
power strip. The Power LED will turn ON to indicate proper operation.
B. Insert one end of the cable to the Ethernet port on the back panel of the
DWL-2200AP and the other end of the cable to an Ethernet Broadband
Router (i.e., D-Link DI-604) or Switch (i.e., D-Link DSS-5+). Note: You also
have the option of connecting the DWL-2200AP directly to the computer that will
be used for configuration. The Link LED light will illuminate to indicate a proper
Ethernet connection. (Note: The Ethernet Port on the DWL-2200AP is Auto-
MDI/MDIX. Meaning you can use a straight-through or crossover-Ethernet cable
to connect to the Ethernet port on the DWL-2200AP.)
C. The DWL-G650 AirPlus Xtreme G Wireless Cardbus Adapter and the DWL-
G520
AirPlus Xtreme G Wireless PCI Adapter will connect, out of the box , with
the
DWL-2200AP, using their default wireless settings. Computers with 802.11b
wireless adapters can also connect to the DWL-2200AP.

below will be free from material defects in workmanship and materials from the date of original retail

•Spare parts and spare kits Ninety (90) days
D-Link’s sole obligation shall be to repair or replace the defective Hardware during the Warranty Period
at no charge to the original owner or to refund at D-Link’s sole discretion. Such repair or replacement will
be rendered by D-Link at an Authorized D-Link Service Office. The replacement Hardware need not be
new or have an identical make, model or part. D-Link may in its sole discretion replace the defective
Hardware (or any part thereof) with any reconditioned product that D-Link reasonably determines is
substantially equivalent (or superior) in all material respects to the defective Hardware. Repaired or
replacement Hardware will be warranted for the remainder of the original Warranty Period from the date
of original retail purchase. If a material defect is incapable of correction, or if D-Link determines in its sole
discretion that it is not practical to repair or replace the defective Hardware, the price paid by the original
purchaser for the defective Hardware will be refunded by D-Link upon return to D-Link of the defective
Hardware. All Hardware (or part thereof) that is replaced by D-Link, or for which the purchase price is
refunded, shall become the property of D-Link upon replacement or refund.

refund at D-Link’s sole discretion. Except as otherwise agreed by D-Link in writing, the replacement
Software is provided only to the original licensee, and is subject to the terms and conditions of the
license granted by D-Link for the Software. Software will be warranted for the remainder of the original
Warranty Period from the date or original retail purchase. If a material non-conformance is incapable of

conforming Software, the price paid by the original licensee for the non-conforming Software will be
refunded by D-Link; provided that the non-conforming Software (and all copies thereof) is first returned
to D-Link. The license granted respecting any Software for which a refund is given automatically
terminates.
