D-Link DCS-931L User Manual 15 Section 2 - Installation 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 (fish tanks), mirrors, file 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. D-Link DCS-931L User Manual 16 Section 2 - Installation WPS - Push Button Setup Alternatively, you may create a secure wireless connection using the WPS Button on the back of the camera. To create a WPS connection: Step 1 Make sure the camera is plugged in, then press and hold the WPS button for three seconds. The blue WPS status LED will start blinking. 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 click on an on-screen 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. WPS Button The DCS-931L will automatically create a secure wireless connection to your router. While connecting, the green LED will flash and your camera will reboot.

D-Link DCS-931L User Manual 42 Section 4 - Troubleshooting Troubleshooting 1. What is Remote Access? How do I enable it? Remote Access allows you to access your camera from any PC connected to the Internet through a web browser. This lets you view your camera feed and manage your camera’s settings when you’re away from home. To enable Remote Access, simply go through the Camera Installation Wizard included on the Installation CD that came in your package. You can also download the wizard from the following websites: DCS-931L: http://DCS-931L.mydlink.com After going through the wizard, you should see Remote Status: Enabled on the summary page. If you see Remote Status: Disabled, make sure that: ...the front LED on your camera is lit solid green ...your Internet connection is working ...your router’s LAN & WAN connections are working properly ...your router has UPnP enabled (if your router does not support UPnP, please refer to Appendix A) ...your router can get a public IP ...your router is upgraded to the latest firmware ...you have tried rebooting your router by unplugging it, then plugging it back in After checking the above items, you can click the Retry button to refresh the summary screen to see if Remote Access has been enabled. 2. What can I do if I forget my password? If you forget your password, you will need to perform a hard reset of your camera. This process will change all your settings back to the factory defaults. To reset your camera, please use an unfolded paperclip to press and hold the RESET button for at least 3 seconds while your camera is plugged in. D-Link DCS-931L User Manual 43 Section 4 - Troubleshooting 3. Why does the LED not light up? The power supply might be faulty. Confirm that you are using the provided DC 5V power supply for this network camera. Verify that the power supply is correctly connected. If the camera is functioning normally, the LED may have been disabled. See “Admin” on page 38 for information about how to enable the LED. 4. Why is the camera’s network connection unreliable? There might be a problem with the network cable. To confirm that the cables are working, PING the address of a known device on the network. If the cabling is OK and your network is reachable, you should receive a reply similar to the following (…bytes = 32 time = 2 ms). Another possible problem may be that the network device such as a hub or switch utilized by the Network Camera is not functioning properly. Please confirm the power for the devices are well connected and functioning properly. 5. Why does the Network Camera work locally but not remotely? This might be caused by the firewall protection. Check the Internet firewall with your system administrator. The firewall may need to have some settings changed in order for the Network Camera to be accessible outside your local LAN. For more information, please refer to the section about installing your camera behind a router. Make sure that the Network Camera isn’t conflicting with any Web server you may have running on your network. The default router setting might be a possible reason. Check that the configuration of the router settings allow the Network Camera to be accessed outside your local LAN. 6. Why does a series of broad vertical white lines appear through out the image? It could be that the image sensor has become overloaded when it has been exposed to bright light such as direct exposure to sunlight or halogen lights. Reposition the camera into a more shaded area immediately, as prolonged exposure to bright lights will damage the sensor. 7. The camera is producing noisy images. How can I solve the problem? The video images might be noisy if the camera is used in a very low light environment. D-Link DCS-931L User Manual 44 Section 4 - Troubleshooting 8. The images are poor quality, how can I improve the image quality? Make sure that your computer’s display properties are set to at least 6-bit color. Using 16 or 256 colors on your computer will produce dithering artifacts in the image, making the image look as if it is of poor quality. You may also need to check your image settings to make sure the brightness, contrast, and other settings are set properly. For more, refer to”Image Setup” on page 28. 9. Why are no images available through the Web browser? ActiveX might be disabled. If you are viewing the images from Internet Explorer make sure ActiveX has been enabled in the Internet Options menu. You may also need to change the security settings on your browser to allow the ActiveX plug-in to be installed. If you are using Internet Explorer with a version number lower than 6, then you will need to upgrade your Web browser software in order to view the streaming video transmitted by the Network Camera.
