7. Troubleshooting
This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the
installation and operation of the DWL-700AP Wireless Access Point. 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 DWL-700AP Access Point.
1. The computer used to configure the DWL-700AP cannot access the
Configuration menu.
•
Check that the Ethernet LED on the DWL-700AP 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 DWL-700AP. Please see Checking the IP Address
in Windows XP in the Networking Basics section of this
manual.
Note: The IP Address of the DWL-700AP is 192.168.0.50. 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 DWL-700AP is
responding. Go to Start>Run>Type Command>Type ping
192.168.0.50. A successful ping will show four replies.

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.
Note: Screen shot were taken
using Windows XP. Your screens
may look similar.
Default
• 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 DWL-700AP has an IP Address of 192.168.0.50, 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.)

4. Resetting the DWL-700AP to Factory Default Settings
After you have tried other methods for troubleshooting your network, you
may choose to Reset the DWL-700AP to the factory default settings.
Remember that D-Link AirPlus products network together, out of the box,
at the factory default settings.
To hard-reset the D-Link AirPlus DWL-700AP to Factory Default Settings,
please do the following:
• Locate the Reset button on the back of the DWL-700AP
• Use a paper clip to press the Reset button.
• Hold for about 5 seconds and then release
• After the DWL-700AP reboots (this may take a few minutes) it will
be reset to the factory Default settings.
