Wireless LAN CF Card User’s Guide -1- Introduction This User Guide is to guide you to install a Wireless LAN designed for both large and small business and SOHO environments and let you share a local printer and files, access internet, and roam about different working places. The attached drivers and utilities support for Windows 95 (OSR2), Windows 98, and Windows 2000, NT4.0 and Windows Millennium. Package Contents Wireless LAN CF Card Wireless LAN CD-ROM with drivers and utilities User’s Guide Quick Start Guide Warranty Card Planning your Wireless LAN There are two usage modes for Wireless LAN, Ad-hoc mode and Infrastructure mode. Please review your need and build your Wireless LAN. Ad-hoc Networking Ad-hoc network also is called Peer-to-Peer network. Without Access Point, notebook users with Wireless LAN CF Card can build a Ad-hoc Peer-to-Peer wireless networks to share files with each other, share a public office printer and other peripheral resources, and even access the Internet via a modem. Infrastructure Networking 802.11b-compatible Access Point is a bridge or router for connect to the wired Ethernet network and wireless network. Through the deployment of Access Point, wireless LAN can be extended to the reach of a wired network. Therefore, A notebook user with Wireless LAN CF Card can access to fixed local network resources. -2- Installation Installation for Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows 2000 Before installing the driver, you will need a copy of the operating system installation media, usually a CD supplied with your computer or operating system. On Windows 98 systems, the installation files are sometimes archived on the hard disk in C:\WINDOWS\OPTIONS\CABS. On Windows 2000 systems, the system may prompt you to load operating system files from the Windows 2000 installation disk. Installation under Windows 95 is identical to the procedure given above for Windows 98 and Windows 2000. Only Windows 95 OSR2 or higher is supported. The Setup program also installs Configuration Utility in the Wireless LAN CF Card in the Program directory. This configuration utility can help you to understand and maintain your Wireless LAN. Install Driver Step 1: Turn on your computer. Step 2: Insert the Wireless LAN CF Card into the CF Card slot. Align the card properly before putting it in the slot. Insert the card firmly without forcing until it seats snugly. CAUTION: Forcing a misaligned card into the slot can damage the computer or the card. Step 3: Windows finds a new hardware shown DLINK-DW650 and asks for the driver of Wireless CF Card. The driver installation wizard guides you through the steps standard for your operating system. Step 4: You will be asked to supply CDs or directory path information for the driver. This driver shall be located in the following directory. D:\DW650\ (if D:\ is your CD-ROM drive) Step 5: Windows finds the driver described as Wireless LAN CF Card. Follow the directions of Windows dialog boxes to complete the driver installation. After completing the installation, Windows dialog will display Systems Setting Change and ask to restart the notebook. Please click Yes to reboot the computer. -3- Install Configuration Utility 1. Restart the computer and ensure Wireless LAN Configuration Utility CD in the CD-ROM drive. You can run the program manually by selecting Run from the Start menu and running SETUP.EXE from the CD-ROM drive. D:\DW650\SETUP.EXE (if D:\ is your CD-ROM drive) 2. On the Wireless LAN CF Card – Installation screen, click next to start software installation. Read the information in the Welcome dialog box and click Next. Then, click Yes if you accept the Software License Agreement. 3. Enter the name of the Wireless LAN Service Set of the wireless network (SSID) to which your computer will connect. The name you enter here must match exactly the name assigned to the access point. Characters, capitalization, and spacing must be exactly identical. NOTE: If the access point you wish to associate with has encryption active, you must also enable encryption on the wireless client. Click Encryption in the Configuration Utilities after reboot to go to screens where you can enable and configure encryption. You must set the wireless client for the same Encryption algorithm and Key values as the access point it will associate with. Refer to the Advanced Configuration section for more details about configuring encryption 4. Select which network mode is suitable for your Wireless LAN. Infrastructure Mode is default selection. This setting can be changed at any time after installation completion. 5. Accept the default program folder or select where the SETUP.exe stores the Configuration Utility. 6. Select “Yes, I want to restart my computer now”. Reboot your computer by clicking Finish. Operation Orienting the Antenna The CF Card antenna is attached to the end of the CF Card. For best use of the antenna: Keep the area around the antenna clear from materials that could block or obstruct -4- z radio transmission, such as metal objects, electronic devices, cordless telephones, and microwave oven. If necessary, move your notebook computer a few inches to find a better signal. Environmental condition varies with users’ location, a difference of one or two inches can mean the difference between a strong and a weak signal. Even a slight change in PC orientation can improve a wireless connection. If you have installed the Configuration Utility, you may use the Signal Strength display in the Link Info to determine the best location and orientation for a wireless network connection. LED Indication The yellow LED of Wireless LAN CF Card performs identical functions when indicating the operational status of the card. Advanced Configuration Configuration Mode (Network Mode) 1. Ad-Hoc: The Ad-Hoc network is also known as a peer-to-peer network. An Ad-Hoc networking do not need Access Point. Instead, the Ad-Hoc network is a loose association of wireless computers that can communicate with each other using Wireless LAN CF Card in Ad-Hoc Mode 2. Infrastructure: In a wireless infrastructure network, wireless stations communicate with an Access Point to connect to a wired network. An infrastructure network also can consist of multiple Access Points. This can extend the coverage area of wireless network. In this configuration, the wireless network consists of cells. Each cell is a single Access Point that has different frequency channel to prevent from interference each other. A wireless station can move from one Access Point to another without losing the network connection. SSID The SSID is the name of wireless network for Ad-Hoc or Infrastructure mode. To add a Wireless LAN CF Card to an existing wireless network, configure this one with the name of the wireless network Tx Rate The Fixed 1, 2, 5.5, 11Mb/s or Fully Auto transmit rates can be selected for Wireless LAN -5- Card. Basically, the Fully Auto setting can allow the CF Card to automatically switch to a higher Tx rate for better throughput in most environment. A fixed rate setting does not allow CF Card to re-transmit at a lower rate even as a result of many retransmissions. PS Mode (Power Saving Mode) Enabling power saving mode can extend the battery life of the mobile notebook by allowing the CF Card to sleep to minimize the power consumption. Channel Wireless LAN CF Card can support up to 14 channels. But, the number of available channels must vary in different countries and regions. The Access Point must be set to a channel. To avoid radio interference, adjacent Access Point within the same infrastructure network (the same SSID) should be set to different channel. The channels of Access Points must be at least five channels apart. Instead, the Wireless LAN CF Card automatically uses the same channels as the Access Point and roams between APs in the same wireless network. Encryption The Wireless LAN CF Card uses WEP encryption to protect wireless data communications. Encryption Selection WEP uses a combination of 40-bit keys or 128-bit keys to provide security for every data transmission. In order to decode a data transmission, the identical WEP key must be used by each wireless client on the network. Choose Enable or Disable to decide whether the security of wireless network is needed or not. Create with Passphrase The WEP keys can be generated from a user-defined passphrase. The WEP text string is a maximum of 32 characters. -6- Regulatory Compliance Information FCC Notice This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device pursuant to Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commissions Rules and Regulation.
