Chapter 1 Overview
Overview
Introduction
The D-Link DVA-G3672B High-Speed Wireless Router is an 802.11g high-performance, wireless router that supports high-speed
wireless networking at home, at work or in public places.
Unlike most routers, the DVA-G3672B provides data transfers at up to 8X (compared to the standard 11 Mbps) when used with other
D-Link AirPlus G products. The 802.11 g standard is backwards compatible with 802.11 b products. This means that you do not need
to change your entire network to maintain connectivity. You may sacrifice some of 802.11 g’s speed when you mix 802.11 b and
802.11 g devices, but you will not lose the ability to communicate when you incorporate the 802.11g standard into your 802.11 b
network. You may choose to slowly change your network by gradually replacing the 802.11 b devices with 802.11 g devices.
In addition to offering faster data transfer speeds when used with other 802.11g products, the DVA-G3672B has the newest,
strongest, most advanced security features available today. When used with other 802.11 g WPA (WiFi Protected Access) and
802.1x compatible products in a network with a RADIUS server, the security features include:
For home users that will not incorporate a RADIUS server in their network, the security for the DVA-G3672B, used in conjunction with
other 802.11g products, will still be much stronger than ever before. Utilizing the Pre Shared Key mode of WPA, the DVA-G3672B
will obtain a new security key every time it connects to the 802.11g network. You only need to input your encryption information once
in the configuration menu. No longer will you have to manually input a new WEP key frequently to ensure security, with the DVA-
G3672B, you can automatically receive a new key every time you connect, vastly increasing the safety of your communications.

Chapter 2 Configuration
Internet Setup – Dynamic IP Address
A Dynamic IP Address connection configures the Router to
automatically obtain its global IP address from a DHCP server
on the ISP’s network. The service provider assigns a global IP
address from a pool of addresses available to the service
provider. Typically the IP address assigned has a long lease
time, so it will likely be the same address each time the Router
requests an IP address.
To configure a Dynamic IP Address WAN connection, follow
these steps:
1. Choose the Connection Type from the drop-down menu.
This defines both the connection protocol and
encapsulation method used for your ADSL service. The
available options are 1483 Bridged IP LLC and 1483
Bridged IP VC-Mux. If you have not been provided
specific information for the Connection Type setting,
leave the default setting.
2. Some ISPs record the unique MAC Address of your
computer’s Ethernet adapter when you first access their
network. This can prevent the Router (which has a
different MAC address) from being allowed access to the
ISPs network (and the Internet). To clone the MAC
address of your computer’s Ethernet adapter, click the
Copy MAC Address button.
3. The Enable Firewall should remain selected for most
users. If you deselect to disable this you will not be able
to use the some of the features configured in the firewall
and filter windows located in the Advanced directory.
The next chapter contains a separate section describing

Internet Setup – Static IP
When the Router is configured to use Static IP Address
assignment for the WAN connection, you must manually assign
a global IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway IP
address used for the WAN connection.
To configure a Static IP Address WAN connection, follow these
steps:
1. Choose the Connection Type from the drop-down menu.
This defines both the connection protocol and
encapsulation method used for your ADSL service. The
available options are 1483 Bridged IP LLC, 1483 Bridged
IP VC-Mux, 1483 Routed IP LLC and 1483 Routed IP
VC-Mux. If you have not been provided specific
information for this setting, leave the default setting.
2. Change the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default
Gateway as instructed by your ISP. These are the global
IP settings for the WAN interface. This is the “visible” IP
address of your account. Your ISP should have provided
these IP settings to you. If your ISP also asks you to
change DNS server IP addresses, enter the Preferred
DNS Server and Alternate DNS Server information
manually.

Internet Setup – Bridge Mode
For Bridged connections it will be necessary for most users to
install additional software on any computer that will use the
Router for Internet access. The additional software is used for
the purpose of identifying and verifying your account, and then
granting Internet access to the computer requesting the
connection. The connection software requires the user to enter
the User Name and Password for the ISP account. This
information is stored on the computer, not in the Router.
To configure a Static IP Address WAN connection, follow these
steps:
1. Choose the Connection Type from the drop-down menu.

Setup – Local Network
To access the Local Network window, click the Local Network button in the Setup directory.
You can configure the local network IP address to suit your
preference. Many users will find it convenient to use the default
settings together with DHCP service to manage the IP settings
for their private network. The IP address of the Router is the
base address used for DHCP. In order to use the Router for
DHCP on your local network, the IP address pool used for
DHCP must be compatible with the IP address of the Router.
The IP addresses available in the DHCP IP address pool will
change automatically if you change the IP address of the
Router. See the next section for information on DHCP setup.
To change the Router IP Address or Subnet Mask, type in the
desired values in the Router Settings section and click the
Apply button. Go to Maintenance -> System and click Reboot
to restart the device. Your web browser should automatically be
redirected to the new IP address. You will be asked to login
again to the Router’s web manager.
The DHCP server is enabled by default for the Router’s
Ethernet LAN interface. DHCP service will supply IP settings to
workstations configured to automatically obtain IP settings that
are connected to the Router though the Ethernet port. When the
Router is used for DHCP it becomes the default gateway for
DHCP client connected to it. Keep in mind that if you change
the IP address of the Router the range of IP addresses in the
pool used for DHCP on the LAN will also be changed. The IP
address pool can be up to 253 IP addresses.
There are two options for DHCP service:
• You can use the Router as a DHCP server for your LAN.
• You can disable DHCP service and manually configure
IP settin
g
s for workstations.

You may also configure DNS settings when using the Router in DHCP mode (Advanced > DNS Setup). When “Obtain DNS server
address automatically“ is clicked under DNS Server Configuration on the DNS Setup window, the Router will automatically relay DNS
settings to properly configured DHCP clients. To manually enter DNS IP addresses, click the “Use the following DNS server
addresses“ radio button and type in a Preferred DNS Server and Alternate DNS Server in the fields provided. The manually
configured DNS settings will be supplied to clients that are configured to request them from the Router.
Follow the instructions below according to which of the above DHCP options you want to use. When you have configured DHCP as
you want, click the Apply button to commit the new settings. Go to Maintenance -> System and click Reboot to restart the device
and let your changes take effect.
Use the Router for DHCP
To use the built-in DHCP server, click the Enable DHCP Server radio button in the DHCP Settings section if it is not already selected.
The IP address pool settings can be adjusted. The DHCP IP Address Range starts with the lowest available IP address (default =
192.168.1.2). If you change the IP address of the Router this will change automatically to be 1 more that the IP address of the Router.
The DHCP IP Address Range ends with the highest IP address number in the pool. Type in the DHCP Lease Time in the entry field
provided. This is the amount of time in hours that a workstation is allowed to reserve an IP address in the pool if the workstation is
disconnected from the network or powered off.
Disable the DHCP Server
To disable DHCP, Click the Disable DHCP Server radio button in the DHCP Settings section and click the Apply button. Go to
Maintenance -> System and click Reboot to restart the device and let your changes take effect. Choosing this option will gray out
most of the setting options on this window and require that workstations on the local network be configured manually or use another
