Section 1 - Product Overview
Introduction
D-Link, an industry leader in networking, introduces the new D-Link DAP-1350 Wireless N Range Extender. With the
ability to transfer files with a maximum wireless signal rate of up to 300Mbps*, the DAP-1350 gives you high-speed
wireless network access for your home or when you travel.
The DAP-1350 is Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11n compliant, meaning that it can connect and interoperate with other 802.11n
compatible wireless client devices. The DAP-1350 is also backwards compatible with 802.11b/g. It can be flexibly
configured to operate in 3 different modes: Access Point, Wireless Client, and Router. With its Setup Wizard, the
DAP-1350 ensures that you will be up and running on a wireless network in just a matter of minutes.
The DAP-1350 features Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK) to provide an enhanced level of security for
wireless data communications. The DAP-1350 also includes additional security features to keep your wireless connection
safe from unauthorized access.
The DAP-1350 supports WPS on all three operation modes, with each capable of being conveniently set up by using
the PIN method or Push Button.
• 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.

network or from the Internet. Support for WPA and WPA2 standards ensure that you’ll be able to use the best possible encryption
method, regardless of your client devices.
* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g, 802.11a 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 1 - Product Overview
Features
• Faster Wireless Networking - The DAP-1350 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. The performance of this 802.11n wireless access point gives you the freedom
of wireless networking at speeds 650% faster than 802.11g.
• Compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g Devices - The DAP-1350 is still fully compatible with the 802.11b/g
standards, so it can connect with existing 802.11b/g PCI, USB, and Cardbus adapters.
• WPS PBC- (Wi-Fi Protected Setup Push Button Configuration) Push Button Configuration is a button that can
be pressed to add the device to an existing network or to create a new network. A virtual button can be used on
the utility while a physical button is placed on the side of the device.
This easy setup method allows you to form a secured wireless link between the DAP-1350 and another WPS
enabled device. A PC is no longer needed to log into the Web-based interface.
• WPS PIN - (Wi-Fi Protected Setup Personal Identification Number ) A PIN is a unique number that can be used
to add the access point to an existing network or to create a new network. The default PIN may be printed on
the bottom of the access point. For extra security, a new PIN can be generated. You can restore the default PIN
at any time. Only the Administrator (“admin” account) can change or reset the PIN.
• User-friendly Setup Wizard - Through its easy-to-use web-based user interface, you can configure your access
point to your specific settings within minutes.

Installation
Please configure the DAP-1350 with a computer connected directly to it. The next few pages will explain the different
operational modes you can use.
Operation Modes
Depending on how you want to use your DAP-1350 will determine which mode you use. This section will help you figure
out which setting works with your setup.

Section 2 - Installation
Access Point Mode
In the Access Point mode, the DAP-1350 acts as a central connection point for any computer (client) that has a 802.11n
or backward-compatible 802.11b/g wireless network interface and is within range of the AP. Clients must use the same
SSID (wireless network name) and channel as the AP in order to connect. If wireless security is enabled on the AP,
the client will need to enter a password to connect to the AP. In Access Point mode, multiple clients can connect to
the AP at the same time.
D-Link DAP-1350 User Manual
14
Section 2 - Installation
Wireless Client Mode
In the Wireless Client mode, the DAP-1350 acts as a wireless network adapter for your Ethernet-enabled device (such
as a game console or a laptop). Connect your Ethernet-enabled device to the AP using an Ethernet cable. The AP
Client mode can support one wired client.
Example: Connect a gaming console using an ethernet cable to the DAP-1350. The unit is set to Wireless Client mode
which will wirelessly connect to a wireless router on your network.
D-Link DAP-1350 User Manual

Section 2 - Installation
Router Mode
In the Router mode, the DAP-1350 connects to a broadband modem. In this mode, the DAP-1350 also acts as a router
for wireless clients on your network and provides NAT (Network Address Translation) and a DHCP server to generate
IP addresses. NAT and the DHCP server allow many computers to share the same Internet connection.

Section 2 - Installation
Wireless Installation Considerations
The D-Link wireless access point 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 access point 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 access points, 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 is not in use.
