6D-Link wireless products are based on industry standards to provide easy-to-use and compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within your home, businessor public access wireless networks. Strictly adhering to the IEEE standard, theD-Link wireless family of products will allow you to securely access the datayou want, when and where you want it. You will be able to enjoy the freedomthat wireless networking delivers.A wireless local area network (WLAN) is a cellular computer network thattransmits and receives data with radio signals instead of wires. Wireless LANsare used increasingly in both home and office environments, and public areassuch as airports, coffee shops and universities. Innovative waysWireless Basicsmore efficiently. Increased mobility and the absence of cabling and other fixedinfrastructure have proven to be beneficial for many users.Wireless users can use the same applications they use on a wired network.Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems support the sameprotocols as Ethernet adapter cards.Under many circumstances, it may be desirable for mobile network devices tolink to a conventional Ethernet LAN in order to use servers, printers or anInternet connection supplied through the wired LAN.  A Wireless Router is adevice used to provide this link.to utilize WLAN technology are helping people to work and communicateFeatures Link/Activity LEDLink - Indicates that theDWL-120 is properlyinstalled in the computer.Activity - Blinks when datais being transmittedthrough the wirelessconnection.AntennaUsed to wirelesslyconnect to 802.11bnetworksMini-USB portUsed to connect theDWL-120 to yourcomputer
7Wireless Basics (continued)People use wireless LAN technology for many different purposes:Mobility - Productivity increases when people have access to data in anylocation within the operating range of the WLAN.  Management decisions basedon real-time information can significantly improve worker efficiency.Low Implementation Costs – WLANs (Wireless Local Area Networks) areeasy to set up, manage, change and relocate. Networks that frequently change,both physically and logically, can benefit from WLANs ease of implementation.WLANs can operate in locations where installation of wiring may be impractical.Installation Speed and Simplicity - Installing a wireless LAN system canbe fast and easy and can eliminate the need to pull cable through walls andceilings.Network Expansion - Wireless technology allows the network to gowhere wires cannot.Scalability – Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) can be configured in avariety of topologies to meet the needs of specific applications or existinginfrastructures. Configurations are easily changed and range from peer-to-peer networks suitable for a small number of users to larger infrastructurenetworks to accommodate hundreds or thousands of users, depending on thenumber of wireless devices deployed.

9Wireless Basics (continued)Installation ConsiderationsThe D-Link Air DWL-120 lets you access your network, using a wirelessconnection, from virtually anywhere. Keep in mind, however, that the number,thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signalsmust pass through, may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on thetypes of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home orbusiness. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basicguidelines:1. Keep the antenna of the DWL-120 in an upright position.2. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the DWL-120 and other network devices  to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your D-Link Air  Wireless product’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your receiving devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.3. 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!  Try to make sure that devices are positioned so that the signal will    travel straight through a wall or ceiling for better reception.4. Building Materials make a difference - a solid metal door or aluminum    studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position wireless    devices and computers with wireless adapters so that the signal passes    through drywall or open doorways and not other materials.5. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical    devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
