Wireless Basics
D-Link wireless products are based on industry standards to provide easy-touse and compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within your home, business
or public access wireless networks. D-Link wireless products will allow you
access to the data you want, when and where you want it. You will be able to
enjoy the freedom that wireless networking brings.
A WLAN is a cellular computer network that transmits and receives data with
radio signals instead of wires. WLANs 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 infrastructure have proven to be beneficial for many
users.
Wireless users can use the same applications they use on a wired network.
Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems support the same
protocols as Ethernet adapter cards.
Wireless Basics (continued)
People use wireless LAN technology for many different purposes:
Mobility - Productivity increases when people have access to data in any
location within the operating range of the WLAN. Management decisions based
on real-time information can significantly improve worker efficiency.
Low Implementation Costs – WLANs are easy to set up, manage, change
and relocate. Networks that frequently change can benefit from WLANs ease
of implementation. WLANs can operate in locations where installation of wiring
may be impractical.
Installation and Network Expansion - Installing a WLAN system can be
fast and easy and can eliminate the need to pull cable through walls and ceilings.
Wireless technology allows the network to go where wires cannot go - even
outside the home or office.
Scalability – WLANs can be configured in a variety of topologies to meet the
needs of specific applications and installations. Configurations are easily
changed and range from peer-to-peer networks suitable for a small number of
users to larger infrastructure networks to accommodate hundreds or thousands
of users, depending on the number of wireless devices deployed.
Inexpensive Solution - Wireless network devices are as competitively
priced as conventional Ethernet network devices.
Standards-Based Technology
Based on the IEEE 802.11b standard, the DWL-120+ is interoperable with
existing compatible 2.4GHz wireless technology with data transfer speeds of
up to 22Mbps when used with other D-Link AirPlus devices.
Wireless Basics (continued)
Installation Considerations
The D-Link AirPlus DWL-120+ lets you access your network, using a wireless
connection, from virtually anywhere within its operating range. 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 antenna of the DWL-120+ in an upright position.
2. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the DWL-120+ and other
network devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your DLink wireless product’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your
devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.
3. 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.
4. Building Materials can impede the wireless signal - a solid metal door or
aluminum studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position wireless
devices and computers with wireless adapters so that the signal passes
through drywall or open doorways and not other materials.
5. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical
devices or appliances that generate extreme RF noise.
Getting Started
With its default settings, the DWL-120+ will connect with other
D-Link AirPlus products, right out of the box.
There are basically two modes of networking:
Infrastructure – using an Access Point or Router, such as the DI-614+.
Ad-Hoc – directly connecting to another computer, for peer-to-peer
communication, using wireless network adapters on each computer, such
as two or more DWL-120+ wireless USB adapters.
On the following pages we will show you an example of an Infrastructure
Network and an Ad-Hoc Network.
An Infrastructure network contains an Access Point or Router. The
Infrastructure Network example shown on the following page contains the
following D-Link network devices (your existing network may be comprised
of other devices):
A wireless broadband RouterD-Link AirPlus DI-614+
A laptop computer with a USB wireless network adapter D-Link AirPlus DWL-120+
A desktop computer with a USB wireless network adapter D-Link AirPlus DWL-120+
A Cable modem D-Link DCM-201
Getting Started
Setting up a Wireless Infrastructure Network
For a typical wireless setup at home (as shown above), please do the
following:
You will need broadband Internet access (a Cable or DSL-subscriber line into
your home or office)
Consult with your Cable or DSL provider for proper installation of the modem
Connect the Cable or DSL modem to your broadband router (see the Quick
Installation Guide included with your router.)
Install the D-Link AirPlus DWL-120 wireless USB adapter into an available USB
port on your desktop computer. (See the Quick Installation Guide included with
the DWL-120+.)
If you are connecting a laptop computer to your network, you can install the
DWL-120+ into an available USB port on your laptop. (See the Quick Installation Guide included with the DWL-120+.)
10
Getting Started
Setting up a Wireless Ad Hoc Network
Install the D-Link AirPlus DWL-120+ Wireless USB adapter into the
desktop computer. (See the Quick Installation Guide included with the
product for installation instructions.)
Install another DWL-120+ into the laptop computer. Or you may install
another wireless adapter such as the D-Link AirPlus DWL-650+
wireless cardbus adapter. (See the Quick Installation Guide included
with the product for installation instructions.)
Set the wireless configuration for the adapters to Ad-Hoc mode, set
the adapters to the same channel, and assign an IP Address to each
computer on the Ad-Hoc network. (See Box below)
IP Address
When assigning IP Addresses to the computers on the network, please
remember that the IP Address for each computer must be in the same
IP Address range as all the computers in the network, and the subnet
mask must be exactly the same for all the computers in the network.
For example: If the first computer is assigned an IP Address of 192.168.0.2
with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0, then the second computer can be
assigned an IP Address of 192.168.0.3 with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0,
etc.
IMPORTANT: If computers or other devices are assigned the same IP
Address, one or more of the devices may not be visible on the network.

2. 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.
3. Why does my wireless connection keep dropping?
„ Antenna Orientation- Try different antenna orientations for the D-Link
DWL-120+. 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.
4. Why can’t I get a wireless connection?
If you have enabled Encryption on the DWL-120+, you must also enable encryption on all wireless devices in the network in order to establish a wireless
connection.
„ The Encryption settings are: 64, 128 or 256-bit. Make sure that the encryption bit level is the same on the Router and the DWL-120+.
„ Make sure that the SSID on the Router (if you have one in your network)
and the DWL-120+ are exactly the same. If they are not, wireless connection will not be established. The default SSID is default.
