Wireless Installation Considerations
The D-Link Wireless Network Camera lets you access your network using a wireless connection from anywhere within the operating range
of your wireless network. However, 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. Minimize the number of walls and ceilings between your adapter and other network devices (such as your Network Camera) - each
wall or ceiling can reduce your adapter’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters).
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 your 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 weaken the wireless signal. Try to position your
access points, wireless routers, and other networking devices where the signal passes through drywall or open doorways. Materials
and objects such as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (sh tanks), mirrors, le cabinets, brick, and concrete will degrade
your wireless signal.
4. Keep your product at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters away from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
5. If you are using 2.4GHz cordless phones or other radio frequency sources (such as microwave ovens), 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 in not in use.

Alternatively, you may create a WPS connect using the WPS Button on the back
of the camera.
To create a WPS connection:
Step 1
Press and hold the WPS button on the side of the camera for three seconds.
The blue WPS status LED above the button will blink.
Step 2
Press the WPS button on your router within 60 seconds. The WPS button is
usually on the front or side of your router. On some routers, you may need to log
in to the web interface and then click on an onscreen button to activate the WPS
feature. If you are not sure where the WPS button is on your router, please refer
to your router’s User Manual.
The DCS-930 will automatically create a wireless connection to your router.
While connecting, the green LED will ash and your camera will reboot.

of your camera into a web browser, such as Internet Explorer®. To log in, use the User name admin and the password you created in the
Installation Wizard. If you did not create a password, the default password is blank. After entering your password, click OK.
Note: If you are directly connecting your PC to the camera, or if you are using the camera on a closed network, the default IP is 192.168.0.20.
