We cover various aspects of the network setup, including the network adapters. Please read the following if you are having problems. Note: It is recommended that you use an Ethernet connection to configure the DI-524 Wireless Broadband Router. 1.The computer used to configure the DI-524 cannot access the Configuration menu. Check that the Ethernet LED on the DI-524 is ON. If the LED is not ON, check that the cable for the Ethernet connection is securely inserted. Check that the Ethernet Adapter is working properly. Please see item 3 (Check that the drivers for the network adapters are installed properly) in this Troubleshooting section to check that the drivers are loaded properly. Check that the IP Address is in the same range and subnet as the DI-524. Please see Checking the IP Address in Windows XP in the Networking Basics section of this manual. Note: The IP Address of the DI-524 is 192.168.0.1. 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 DI-524 is responding. Go to Start>Run>Type Command>Type ping 192.168.0.1. 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 DI-524. 55 Troubleshooting 2. The wireless client cannot access the Internet in the 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> 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 DI-524 has an IP Address of 192.168.0.1, 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; no two devices may have 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 on the Local Area Connection icon in the taskbar > select the Support tab and the IP Address will be displayed. (Please refer to Checking the IP Address in the Networking Basics section of this manual.) If it is necessary to assign a Static IP Address to the wireless adapter, please refer to the appropriate section in Networking Basics. 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. See Networking Basics: Assigning a Static IP Address.) 56 Troubleshooting 3. Check that the drivers for the network adapters are installed properly. You may be using different network adapters than those illustrated here, but this procedure will remain the same, regardless of the type of network adapters you are using.

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 the wireless range. Please refer to Installation Considerations in the Wireless Basics section of this manual for further information about the most advantageous placement of your D-Link wireless products. 5. Why does my wireless connection keep dropping? Antenna Orientation- Try different antenna orientations for the DI-524. Try to keep the antenna at least 6 inches away from the wall or other objects. If you are using 2.4GHz cordless phones, X-10 equipment or other home security systems, ceiling fans, and lights, your wireless connection will degrade dramatically or drop altogether. Try changing the Channel on 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. 6. Why can’t I get a wireless connection? If you have enabled Encryption on the DI-524, you must also enable encryption on all wireless clients in order to establish a wireless connection. For 802.11b, the Encryption settings are: 64, 128, or 256 bit. Make sure that the encryption bit level is the same on the Router and the Wireless Client. Make sure that the SSID on the Router and the Wireless Client are exactly the same. If they are not, wireless connection will not be established. Move the DI-524 and the wireless client into the same room and then test the wireless connection. Disable all security settings. (WEP, MAC Address Control) 59 Troubleshooting 6. Why can’t I get a wireless connection? (continued) Turn off your DI-524 and the client. Turn the DI-524 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 firmly connected. Check that the IP Address, subnet mask, gateway and DNS settings are correctly entered for the network. If you are using 2.4GHz cordless phones, X-10 equipment or other home security systems, ceiling fans, and lights, your wireless connection will degrade dramatically or drop altogether. Try changing the Channel on your DI-524, 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. 7. I forgot my encryption key.

When entering the IP Address of the DI-524 (192.168.0.1), you are not connecting to the Internet or have to be connected to the Internet. The device has the utility built-in to a ROM chip in the device itself. Your computer must be on the same IP subnet to connect to the web-based utility. To resolve difficulties accessing a web utility, please follow the steps below. Step 1 Verify physical connectivity by checking for solid link lights on the device. If you do not get a solid link light, try using a different cable or connect to a different port on the device if possible. If the computer is turned off, the link light may not be on. What type of cable should I be using? The following connections require a Crossover Cable: Computer to Computer Computer to Uplink Port Computer to Access Point Computer to Print Server Computer/XBOX/PS2 to DWL-810 Computer/XBOX/PS2 to DWL-900AP+ Uplink Port to Uplink Port (hub/switch) Normal Port to Normal Port (hub/switch) The following connections require a Straight-through Cable: Computer to Residential Gateway/Router Computer to Normal Port (hub/switch) Access Point to Normal Port (hub/switch) Print Server to Normal Port (hub/switch) Uplink Port to Normal Port (hub/switch) Rule of Thumb: ”If there is a link light, the cable is right.” 65 Frequently Asked Questions (continued) Why can´t I access the web based configuration? (continued) What type of cable should I be using? (continued) What´s the difference between a crossover cable and a straight-through cable? The wiring in crossover and straight-through cables are different. The two types of cable have different purposes for different LAN configurations. EIA/TIA 568A/568B define the wiring standards and allow for two different wiring color codes as illustrated in the following diagram. *The wires with colored backgrounds may have white stripes and may be denoted that way in diagrams found elsewhere. How to tell straight-through cable from a crossover cable: The main way to tell the difference between the two cable types is to compare the wiring order on the ends of the cable. If the wiring is the same on both sides, it is straight-through cable. If one side has opposite wiring, it is a crossover cable. All you need to remember to properly configure the cables is the pinout order of the two cable ends and the following rules: A straight-through cable has identical ends A crossover cable has different ends It makes no functional difference which standard you follow for straight-through cable ends, as long as both ends are the same. You can start a crossover cable with either standard as long as the other end is the other standard. It makes no functional difference which end is which. The order in which you pin the cable is important. Using a pattern other than what is specified in the above diagram could cause connection problems. When to use a crossover cable and when to use a straight-through cable: Computer to Computer – Crossover Computer to an normal port on a Hub/Switch – Straight-through Computer to an uplink port on a Hub/Switch - Crossover Hub/Switch uplink port to another Hub/Switch uplink port – Crossover Hub/Switch uplink port to another Hub/Switch normal port - Straight-through 66 Frequently Asked Questions (continued) Why can´t I access the web based configuration? (continued) Step 2 Disable any Internet security software running on the computer.

Can I use my D-Link Broadband Router to share my Internet connection provided by AOL DSL Plus? In most cases yes. AOL DSL+ may use PPPoE for authentication bypassing the client software. If this is the case, then our routers will work with this service. Please contact AOL if you are not sure. To set up your router: Step 1 Log into the web-based configuration (192.168.0.1) and configure the WAN side to use PPPoE. Step 2 Enter your screen name followed by @aol.com for the user name. Enter your AOL password in the password box. Step 3 You will have to set the MTU to 1400. AOL DSL does not allow for anything higher than 1400. Step 4 Apply settings. Step 5 Recycle the power to the modem for 1 minute and then recycle power to the router. Allow 1 to 2 minutes to connect. If you connect to the Internet with a different internet service provider and want to use the AOL software, you can do that without configuring the router’s firewall settings. You need to configure the AOL software to connect using TCP/IP. Go to http://www.aol.com for more specific configuration information of their software. 76 Frequently Asked Questions (continued) How do I open ports on my router? To allow traffic from the internet to enter your local network, you will need to open up ports or the router will block the request. Step 1 Open your web browser and enter the IP Address of your D-Link router (192.168.0.1). Enter username (admin) and your password (blank by default). Step 2 Click on Advanced on top and then click Virtual Server on the left side. Step 3 Check Enabled to activate entry. Step 4 Enter a name for your virtual server entry. Step 5 Next to Private IP, enter the IP Address of the computer on your local network that you want to allow the incoming service to. Step 6 Choose Protocol Type - either TCP, UDP, or both. If you are not sure, select both. Step 7 Enter the port information next to Private Port and Public Port. The private and public ports are usually the same. The public port is the port seen from the WAN side, and the private port is the port being used by the application on the computer within your local network. Step 8 Enter the Schedule information. Step 9 Click Apply and then click Continue. Note: Make sure DMZ host is disabled. If DMZ is enabled, it will disable all Virtual Server entries. Because our routers use NAT (Network Address Translation), you can only open a specific port to one computer at a time. For example: If you have 2 web servers on your network, you cannot open port 80 to both computers. You will need to configure 1 of the web servers to use port 81. Now you can open port 80 to the first computer and then open port 81 to the other computer. 77 Frequently Asked Questions (continued) What is DMZ? Demilitarized Zone: In computer networks, a DMZ (demilitarized zone) is a computer host or small network inserted as a neutral zone between a company´s private network and the outside public network. It prevents outside users from getting direct access to a server that has company data. (The term comes from the geographic buffer zone that was set up between North Korea and South Korea following the UN police action in the early 1950s.) A DMZ is an optional and more secure approach to a firewall and effectively acts as a proxy server as well. In a typical DMZ configuration for a small company, a separate computer (or host in network terms) receives requests from users within the private network for access to Web sites or other companies accessible on the public network. The DMZ host then initiates sessions for these requests on the public network. However, the DMZ host is not able to initiate a session back into the private network. It can only forward packets that have already been requested. Users of the public network outside the company can access only the DMZ host. The DMZ may typically also have the company´s Web pages so these could be served to the outside world. However, the DMZ provides access to no other company data. In the event that an outside user penetrated the DMZ hosts security, the Web pages might be corrupted but no other company information would be exposed. D-Link, a leading maker of routers, is one company that sells products designed for setting up a DMZ How do I configure the DMZ Host? The DMZ feature allows you to forward all incoming ports to one computer on the local network. The DMZ, or Demilitarized Zone, will allow the specified computer to be exposed to the Internet. DMZ is useful when a certain application or game does not work through the firewall. The computer that is configured for DMZ will be completely vulnerable on the Internet, so it is suggested that you try opening ports from the Virtual Server or Firewall settings before using DMZ. Step 1 Find the IP address of the computer you want to use as the DMZ host. To find out how to locate the IP Address of the computer in Windows XP/2000/ME/9x or Macintosh operating systems please refer to Step 4 of the first question in this section (Frequently Asked Questions). 78 Frequently Asked Questions (continued) How do I configure the DMZ Host? (continued) Step 2 Log into the web based configuration of the router by typing in the IP Address of the router (default:192.168.0.1) in your web browser. The username is admin (all lowercase) and the password is blank (nothing) Step 3 Click the Advanced tab and then click on the DMZ button. Select Enable and type in the IP Address you found in step 1. Step 4 Click Apply and then Continue to save the changes. Note: When DMZ is enabled, Virtual Server settings will still be effective. Remember, you cannot forward the same port to multiple IP Addresses, so the Virtual Server settings will take priority over DMZ settings. 79 Frequently Asked Questions (continued) How do I open a range of ports on my DI-524 using Firewall rules? Step 1 Access the router’s web configuration by entering the router’s IP Address in your web browser. The default IP Address is 192.168.0.1. Login using your password. The default username is “admin” and the password is blank. If you are having difficulty accessing web management, please see the first question in this section. Step 2 From the web management Home page, click the Advanced tab then click the Firewall button. Step 3 Click on Enabled and type in a name for the new rule. Step 4 Choose WAN as the Source and enter a range of IP Addresses out on the internet that you would like this rule applied to. If you would like this rule to allow all internet users to be able to access these ports, then put an Asterisk in the first box and leave the second box empty. Step 5 Select LAN as the Destination and enter the IP Address of the computer on your local network that you want to allow the incoming service to. This will not work with a range of IP Addresses. Step 6 Enter the port or range of ports that are required to be open for the incoming service. Step 7 Click Apply and then click Continue. Note: Make sure DMZ host is disabled. Because our routers use NAT (Network Address Translation), you can only open a specific port to one computer at a time. For example: If you have 2 web servers on your network, you cannot open port 80 to both computers. You will need to configure 1 of the web servers to use port 81. Now you can open port 80 to the first computer and then open port 81 to the other computer. 80 Frequently Asked Questions (continued) What are virtual servers? A Virtual Server is defined as a service port, and all requests to this port will be redirected to the computer specified by the server IP. For example, if you have an FTP Server (port 21) at 192.168.0.5, a Web server (port 80) at 192.168.0.6, and a VPN server at 192.168.0.7, then you need to specify the following virtual server mapping table: Server IP Enable 21 192.168.0.5 80 192.168.0.6 1723 192.168.0.7 Server Port How do I use PC Anywhere with my DI-524 router?

Enter the port number as you entered in the above steps. 87 Frequently Asked Questions (continued) How do I use NetMeeting with my D-Link Router? Unlike most TCP/IP applications, NetMeeting uses DYNAMIC PORTS instead of STATIC PORTS. That means that each NetMeeting connection is somewhat different than the last. For instance, the HTTP web site application uses port 80. NetMeeting can use any of over 60,000 different ports. All broadband routers using (only) standard NAT and all internet sharing programs like Microsoft ICS that use (only) standard NAT will NOT work with NetMeeting or other h.323 software packages. The solution is to put the router in DMZ. Note: A few hardware manufacturers have taken it on themselves to actually provide H.323 compatibility. This is not an easy task since the router must search each incoming packet for signs that it might be a netmeeting packet. This is a whole lot more work than a router normally does and may actually be a weak point in the firewall. D-Link is not one of the manufacturers.

If using Mac OS X Firewall, you may need to temporarily turn off the firewall in the Sharing preference pane on both computers. To use the Mac OS X Firewall, you must open the same ports as in the router: Step Step Step Step Step Step Step Step 1 Choose Apple menu > System Preferences. 2 Choose View > Sharing. 3 Click the Firewall tab. 4 Click New. 5 Choose Other from the Port Name pop-up menu. 6 In the Port Number, Range or Series field, type in: 5060, 16384-16403. 7 In the Description field type in: iChat AV 8 Click OK. 90 Frequently Asked Questions (continued) How do I send or receive a file via iChat when the Mac OSX firewall is active? -for Macintosh users- Mac OS X 10.2 and later The following information is from the online Macintosh AppleCare knowledge base: “iChat cannot send or receive a file when the Mac OS X firewall is active in its default state. If you have opened the AIM port, you may be able to receive a file but not send them. In its default state, the Mac OS X firewall blocks file transfers using iChat or America Online AIM software. If either the sender or receiver has turned on the Mac OS X firewall, the transfer may be blocked. The simplest workaround is to temporarily turn off the firewall in the Sharing preference pane on both computers. This is required for the sender. However, the receiver may keep the firewall on if the AIM port is open. To open the AIM port: Step 1 Choose Apple menu > System Preferences. Step 2 Choose View > Sharing. Step 3 Click the Firewall tab. Step 4 Click New. Step 5 Choose AOL IM from the Port Name pop-up menu. The number 5190 should already be filled in for you. Step 6 Click OK. If you do not want to turn off the firewall at the sending computer, a different file sharing service may be used instead of iChat. The types of file sharing available in Mac OS X are outlined in technical document 106461, “Mac OS X: File Sharing” in the AppleCare Knowledge base online. Note: If you use a file sharing service when the firewall is turned on, be sure to click the Firewall tab and select the service you have chosen in the “Allow” list. If you do not do this, the firewall will also block the file sharing service. “ 91 Frequently Asked Questions (continued) What is NAT? NAT stands for Network Address Translator. It is proposed and described in RFC-1631 and is used for solving the IP Address depletion problem. Basically, each NAT box has a table consisting of pairs of local IP Addresses and globally unique addresses, by which the box can “translate” the local IP Addresses to global address and vice versa. Simply put, it is a method of connecting multiple computers to the Internet (or any other IP network) using one IP Address. D-Link´s broadband routers (ie: DI-604) support NAT. With proper configuration, multiple users can access the Internet using a single account via the NAT device. For more information on RFC-1631: The IP Network Address Translator (NAT), visit http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1631.html 92 Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
