86D-Link DSM-510 User ManualAppendix A - Wireless BasicsD-Link wireless products are based on industry standards to provide easy-to-use and compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within your home, business or public access wireless networks. Strictly adhering to the IEEE standard, the D-Link wireless family of products will allow you to securely access the data you want, when and where you want it. You will be able to enjoy the freedom that wireless networking delivers.A wireless local area network (WLAN) is a computer network that transmits and receives data with radio signals instead of wires. Wireless LANs are used increasingly in both home and office environments, and public areas such as airports, coffee shops and universities. Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are helping people to work and communicate more efficiently. Increased mobility and, the absence of cabling and other fixed infrastructures have proven to be beneficial for many users. Under many circumstances, it may be desirable for mobile network devices to link to a conventional Ethernet LAN in order to use servers, printers or an Internet connection supplied through the wired LAN. A Wireless Router is a device used to provide this link.Wireless Basics
87D-Link DSM-510 User ManualAppendix A - Wireless BasicsWhat is Wireless?Wireless or WiFi technology is another way of connecting your computer to the network without using wires. WiFi uses radio frequency to connect wirelessly, so you have the freedom to connect computers anywhere in your home or office network.Why D-Link Wireless?   D-Link is the worldwide leader and award winning designer, developer, and manufacturer of networking products. D-Link delivers the performance you need at a price you can afford. D-Link has all the products you need to build your network.How does wireless work?   Wireless works similar to how cordless phones work, through radio signals that transmit data from point A to point B. But wireless technology has restrictions as to how you can access the network. You must be within the wireless network range area to be able to connect your computer. There are two different types of wireless networks Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), and Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN).Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)In a wireless local area network, a device called an Access Point (AP) connects computers to the network. The access point has a small antenna attached to it, which allows it to transmit data back and forth over radio signals. With an indoor access point, the signal can travel up to 300 feet. With an outdoor access point the signal can reach out up to 30 miles to serve places like manufacturing plants, industrial locations, college and high school campuses, airports, golf courses, and many other outdoor venues.Who uses wireless?   Wireless technology has become so popular in recent years that almost everyone is using it, whether it’s for home, office, or business,
88D-Link DSM-510 User ManualAppendix A - Wireless BasicsD-Link has a wireless solution for it.Home  • Gives everyone at home broadband access  • Surf the web, check email, instant message, and etc  • Gets rid of the cables around the house  • Simple and easy to use Small Office and Home Office  • Stay on top of everything at home as you would at office  • Remotely access your office network from home  • Share Internet connection and printer with multiple computers  • No need to dedicate office space   Where is wireless used?   Wireless technology is expanding everywhere, not just at home or the office. People like the freedom of mobility and it’s becoming so popular that more and more public facilities now provide wireless access to attract people. A wireless connection in a public place is usually called a “hotspot”.
89D-Link DSM-510 User ManualAppendix A - Wireless BasicsUsing a D-Link Cardbus Adapter with your laptop, you can access the hotspot to connect to the Internet from remote locations like: Airports, Hotels, Coffee Shops, Libraries, Restaurants, and Convention Centers.A wireless network is easy to setup, but if you’re installing it for the first time it could be quite a task not knowing where to start. That’s why we’ve put together a few setup steps and tips to help you through the process of setting up a wireless network.TipsHere are a few things to keep in mind, when you install a wireless network.Centralize your router or Access Point  Make sure you place the router/access point in a centralized location within your network for the best performance. Try to place the router/access point as high as possible in the room, so the signal gets dispersed throughout your home. If you have a two-story home, you may need a repeater to boost the signal to extend the range.Eliminate Interference   Place home appliances such as cordless telephones, microwaves, and televisions as far away as possible from the router/access point. This would significantly reduce any interference that the appliances might cause since they operate on the same frequency.Security   Don’t let you next-door neighbors or intruders connect to your wireless network. Secure your wireless network by turning on the WPA or WEP security feature on the router. Refer to the product manual for detailed information on how to set security up.
90D-Link DSM-510 User ManualAppendix A - Wireless BasicsThere are basically two modes of networking: • Infrastructure – All wireless clients will connect to an access point or wireless router.• Ad-Hoc – Directly connecting to another computer, for peer-to-peer communication, using wireless network adapters on each computer, such as two or more WNA-1330 wireless network Cardbus adapters.An Infrastructure network contains an Access Point or wireless router. All the wireless devices, or clients, will connect to the wireless router or access point. An Ad-Hoc network contains only clients, such as laptops with wireless cardbus adapters. All the adapters must be in Ad-Hoc mode to communicate.Wireless Modes
91D-Link DSM-510 User ManualAppendix B - Networking BasicsNetworking BasicsCheck your IP AddressAfter you install your new D-Link adapter, by default, the TCP/IP settings should be set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server (i.e. wireless router) automatically.

94D-Link DSM-510 User ManualAppendix C - General AppendixConvert an Earlier WMV File into WMV9 There are many variations of video files (including WMV files) which may affect playback on the DSM-510. To alleviate this issue, there are software tools available on the web to check the properties of a video file and to convert an earlier WMV file into WMV9. If you have Windows® XP or ME, your Windows comes with a tool from Microsoft called “Movie Maker.” With this tool, you can create and edit video files into Windows Media Video 9 (WMV9) format. Here is an example of converting a WMV8 file into WMV9.Step 1: Verify your WMV file codec using a validation tool. In the “Video” field, it tells you the selected video file is a WMV8 instead of a supported WMV9 by your HD media player. Therefore, we need to convert this file into a WMV9 format in order for you to play it.Step 2: Open “Windows Movie Maker”. Import the video you wish to convert. This is AVIcodec, which is used to check for an earlier version of a WMV file.
