Enable this option if you want to allow QoS to prioritize your trafc

Priority Classiers.

Allows the access point to recognize HTTP transfers for many com-

mon audio and video streams and prioritize them above other trafc.

Such streams are frequently used by digital media players.

QoS (Quality of Service):

HTTP:

Using the Conﬁguration Menu

Quality of Service (QoS) enhances the experience of using a network by prioritizing the trafc of

different applications.

A QoS Rule identies a specic message ow and assigns a priority to that ow. For most applica-

tions, the priority classiers ensure the right priorities and specic QoS Rules are not required.

QoS supports overlaps between rules. If more than one rule matches a specic message ow,

the rule with the highest priority will be used.

DAP-3520 User’s Manual

D-Link AirPremier N Dual Band Exterior PoE Access Point

Using the Conﬁguration Menu

When enabled, this option causes the access point to automatically

attempt to prioritize trafc streams that it doesn’t otherwise recog-

nize, based on the behavior that the streams exhibit. This acts to

de-prioritize streams that exhibit bulk transfer characteristics, such

as le transfers, while leaving interactive trafc, such as gaming or

VoIP, running at a normal priority

Enter a name for the new QoS rule in the eld provided.

Use the pull-down menu to select the desired priority: Background

(BK), Best Effort (BE), Video (VI), or Voice (VO).

Use the pull-down menu to choose the appropriate protocol used by

the messages: Any, TCP, UDP, Both, IMCP, or Other.

The rule applies to a ow of messages for which one computer’s IP

address falls within the range set here.

The rule applies to a ow of messages for which host 1’s port number

is within the range set here when the Protocol is set to TCP, UDP,

or Both.

The rule applies to a ow of messages for which the other computer’s

IP address falls within the range set here.

Troubleshooting

This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and operation

of the DAP-3520 Wireless Access Point. We will cover various aspects of the network setup,

especially the network adapters. Please read the following if you are having any technical

difculties.

Note: It is recommended that you use an Ethernet connection to congure the DAP-3520.

1. The computer used to congure the DAP-3520 cannot access the Conguration

menu.

Check if the LAN LED on the DAP-3520 is ON. If the LED is not ON, check if the cable for

the Ethernet connection is securely inserted.

Check if the Ethernet adapter is working properly. Please see item 3 of this Troubleshooting

section to check that the drivers for the network adapters are loaded properly.

Check if the IP address is in the same range and subnet as the DAP-3520.

Note: The default IP address of the DAP-3520 is 192.168.0.50. All the computers on the network

must have a unique IP address in the same range, e.g. 192.168.0.x. Any computers that have

identical IP addresses will not be visible on the network. They must all have the same subnet

mask, e.g. 255.255.255.0.

Do a Ping test to make sure that the DAP-3520 is responding. Go to Start>Run>Type

Command>Type ping 192.168.0.50. A successful ping will show four replies.

Note: If you have changed the default IP address, make sure to ping the correct IP address

assigned to the DAP-3520.

Troubleshooting

2. The wireless client cannot access the Internet within Infrastructure mode.

Make sure the wireless client is associated and joined with the correct access point. To check

this connection, right-click on the Local Area Connection icon in the taskbar and select View

Available Wireless Networks. The Connect to Wireless Network screen will appear. Please

make sure you have selected the correct available network, as shown in the illustrations below.

Check that the IP address assigned to the wireless adapter is within the same IP address range

as the access point and gateway. Since the DAP-3520 has an IP address of 192.168.0.50,

wireless adapters must have an IP address in the same range, e.g. 192.168.0.x. Each device

must have a unique IP address; there may be no two devices with the same IP address.

The subnet mask must be the same for all the computers on the network. To check the IP

address assigned to the wireless adapter, double-click the Local Area Connection icon in

the taskbar, then select the Support tab and the IP address will be displayed.

If it is necessary to assign a Static IP Address to the wireless adapter. If you are entering a

DNS Server address, you must also enter the Default Gateway Address.

Remember that if

you have a DHCP-capable router, you will not need to assign a static IP address.

Troubleshooting

3. What variables may cause my wireless products to lose reception?

D-Link products let you access your network from virtually anywhere you want, however, the

positioning of the products within your environment will affect its wireless range.

4. Why does my wireless connection keep dropping?

Antenna Orientation - try different antenna orientations for the DAP-3520. Try to keep the

antenna at least 6 inches away from the wall or other objects.

If you are using 2.4 GHz cordless phones, X-10 equipment or other home security systems,

ceiling fans, or lights, your wireless connection will degrade dramatically or even drop. Try

changing the channel of your router, access point and wireless adapter to a different channel

to avoid interference.

Keep your product away - at least 3-6 feet - from electrical devices that generate RF noise

like microwaves, monitors, electric motors, etc.

5. Why can’t I get a wireless connection?

If you have enabled encryption on the DAP-3520, you must also enable encryption on all wireless

clients in order to establish a wireless connection.

Make sure that the SSID on the AP and the wireless client are exactly the same. If they are

not, wireless connection cannot be established.

Move the DAP-3520 and the wireless client into the same room and then test the wireless

connection.

Disable all security settings.

Turn off your DAP-3520 and the client. Turn the DAP-3520 back on again, and then turn

on the client.

Make sure that all devices are set to Infrastructure mode.

Check that the LED indicators are indicating normal activity. If not, check that the AC power

and Ethernet cables are rmly connected.

Check that the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS settings are correctly entered

for the network.

If you are using 2.4 GHz cordless phones, X-10 equipment, or other home security systems,

ceiling fans, or lights, your wireless connection will degrade dramatically or drop altogether.

Try changing the channel on your DAP-3520, and on all the devices in your network to avoid

interference.

Keep your product away - at least 3-6 feet - from electrical devices that generate RF noise

like microwaves, monitors, electric motors, etc.

D-Link and its suppliers under this Limited Warranty will be, at D-Link’s option, to replace the

non-conforming Software (or defective media) with software that substantially conforms to D-

Link’s functional specications for the Software or to refund the portion of the actual purchase

price paid that is attributable to the Software. Except as otherwise agreed by DLink 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. Replacement Software will be

warranted for the remainder of the original Warranty Period and is subject to the same limitations
