Troubleshooting
This Chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and
operation of the DWL-7200AP 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-7200AP.
1. The computer used to configure the DWL-7200AP cannot
access the Configuration menu.

 Check that the Ethernet LED on the DWL-7200AP 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 in this section: Check that the drivers for the network adapters
are installed properly.

 Check that the IP address is in the same range and subnet as the
DWL-7200AP. Please see Checking the IP Address in Windows
XP in the Networking Basics section of this manual.
Note: The IP address of the DWL-7200AP 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-7200AP is responding.
Go to Start>Run>Type Command>Type ping 192.168.0.50. A
successful ping will show four replies.
Note: If you have changed
the default IP address,
make sure to ping the correct IP address assigned
to the DWL-7200AP.
38
Troubleshooting (continued)
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.
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-7200AP 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.)

procedure will remain the same, regardless of the type of network adapters you are
using.

Troubleshooting (continued)
4. 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.
5. Why does my wireless connection keep dropping?

 Antenna orientation- Try different antenna orientations for the DWL-7200AP.
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 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.
6. Why can’t I get a wireless connection?
To establish a wireless connection, while enabling Encryption on the DWL-7200AP, you
must also enable encryption on the wireless client.

 For 802.11a, the Encryption settings are: 64-, 128- or 152-bit. Make sure that the
encryption bit level is the same on the access point and the wireless client.

 For 802.11b, the Encryption settings are: 64-, 128-, or 256-bit. Make sure that
the encryption bit level is the same on the access point and the wireless client.
Make sure that the SSID on the access point and the wireless client are exactly the
same. If they are not, wireless connection will not be established. Please note that there
are two separate SSIDs for 802.11a and 802.11b. The default SSID for both 802.11a and
802.11b is default.

7. Resetting the DWL-7200AP to Factory Default Settings
After you have tried other methods for troubleshooting your network, you may
choose to Reset the DWL-7200AP to the factory default settings.
To hard-reset the D-Link DWL-7200AP to factory default settings, please do the
following:

 Locate the Reset button on the back of the DWL-7200AP

 Use a paper clip to press the Reset button

 Hold for about 10 seconds and then release

 After the DWL-7200AP reboots (this may take a few
minutes) it will be reset to the factory default settings
