Wireless Installation Considerations
The D-Link High-Definition Media Player 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 adapter 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 routers, 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 in not in use.
Note: For best video quality, a wired connection is recommended.

Note: Do not install the Media Server software if you have an Intel® Viiv™ technology verified PC, because you
can use the Intel® Viiv™ Media Server that is included with your Intel® Viiv™ technology verified PC.
To share audio, video, and photo files from your computer, it is necessary to install the Nero MediaHome software
on any PC that is not Intel® Viiv™ technology verified. The Nero MediaHome software allows you to point to the folders
on your PC’s hard drive that contain the audio, video, and photo files you want to share. The Nero MediaHome software
then streams the content to your DSM-510 via your wired/wireless network connection.
Currently the DSM-510 only connects to one Media Server at a time. If more than one PC contains files you want to
share, you can select one of the following options:
1. Copy all of the files to one computer designated to run the Nero MediaHome software.
2. Map network drives from the computer with the Nero MediaHome software to additional computers that contain files
you want to share. This method also allows you to share files from computers that cannot run the Nero MediaHome
software such as Macintosh systems. The computer running the Nero MediaHome software must always be on
