Section 2 - Installation

Access Point Mode

In the Access Point mode, the DIR-505 acts as a central connection point for any computer (client) that has a 802.11n or

backward-compatible 802.11g wireless network interface and is within range of the AP. Clients must use the same SSID (wireless

network name) and channel as the AP in order to connect. If wireless security is enabled on the AP, the client will need to enter

a password to connect to the AP. In Access Point mode, multiple clients can connect to the AP at the same time.

9D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Section 2 - Installation

Repeater Mode

In the Wireless Client mode, the DIR-505 acts as a wireless network adapter for your Ethernet-enabled device (such as a game

console or a TV set-top box). Connect your Ethernet-enabled device to the AP using an Ethernet cable. The AP Client mode

can support multiple wired clients.

If you are going to connect several Ethernet-enabled devices to your DIR-505, connect the LAN port of the DIR-505 to an

Ethernet switch, then connect your devices to this switch.

Example: Connect a gaming console using an ethernet cable to the DIR-505. The unit is set to Wireless Client mode which will

wirelessly connect to a wireless router on your network.

10D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Section 2 - Installation

Hot Spot Mode

In Range Extender Mode, the DIR-505 increases the range of your wireless network by extending the wireless coverage of

another AP or wireless router. The APs and wireless router (if used) must be within range of each other. Make sure that all clients,

APs, and the wireless router all use the same SSID (wireless network name), channel, and security settings.

11D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Section 2 - Installation

Wireless Installation Considerations

The D-Link wireless router lets you access your network using a wireless connection from virtually anywhere within the

operating range of your wireless network. 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 number of walls and ceilings between the D-Link router and other network devices to a minimum -

each wall or ceiling can reduce your adapter’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devices so that

the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.

2. 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.

3. Building Materials make a dierence. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative eect on range.

Try to position access points, wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through drywall or open

doorways. Materials and objects such as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (sh tanks), mirrors, le

cabinets, brick, and concrete will degrade your wireless signal.

4. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF

noise.

5. If you are using 2.4GHz cordless phones or X-10 (wireless products such as ceiling fans, lights, and home security

systems), your wireless connection may degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4GHz phone

base is as far away from your wireless devices as possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone in not

in use.

12D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Section 2 - Installation

1. Turn o and unplug your cable or DSL broadband modem. This is required.

Manual Setup

Important: for best results, insert the Installation CD and follow the on-screen instructions. If you are unable to use the CD or

are using Mac or Linux, please use the following installation steps:

2. Position your router close to your modem and a computer. Place the router in an open area of your intended

work area for better wireless coverage.

3. Unplug the Ethernet cable from your modem (or existing router if upgrading) that is connected to your computer.

Plug it into the blue port labeled 1 on the back of your router. The router is now connected to your computer.

13D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Section 2 - Installation

4. Plug one end of the included blue Ethernet cable that came with your router into the yellow port labeled

INTERNET on the back of the router. Plug the other end of this cable into the Ethernet port on your modem.

5. Reconnect the power adapter to your cable or DSL broadband modem and wait for two minutes.

6. Connect the supplied power adapter into the power port on the back of the router and then plug it into a power

outlet or surge protector. Press the power button and verify that the power LED is lit. Allow 1 minute for the

router to boot up.

7. If you are connecting to a Broadband service that uses a dynamic connection (not PPPoE), you may be online

already. Try opening a web browser and enter a web site. If you connect, you are nished with your Internet setup.

Please skip to page 13 to congure your router and use the manual setup procedure to congure your network

and wireless settings. If you did not connect to the Internet, use the D-Link Setup Wizard (refer to page 15).

14D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Section 2 - Installation

Note: It is strongly recommended to replace your existing router with the DIR-505 instead of using both. If your modem is a combo

router, you may want to contact your ISP or manufacturer’s user guide to put the router into Bridge mode, which will ‘turn o’ the

router (NAT) functions.

If you are connecting the DIR-505 router to an existing router to use as a wireless access point and/or switch, you will have to

do the following to the DIR-505 before connecting it to your network:

• Disable UPnP™

• Disable DHCP

• Change the LAN IP address to an available address on your network. The LAN ports on the router cannot accept

a DHCP address from your other router.

To connect to another router, please follow the steps below:

1. Plug the power into the router. Connect one of your computers to the router (LAN port) using an Ethernet cable. Make sure

your IP address on the computer is 192.168.0.xxx (where xxx is between 2 and 254). Please see the Networking Basics

section for more information. If you need to change the settings, write down your existing settings before making any

changes. In most cases, your computer should be set to receive an IP address automatically in which case you will not have

to do anything to your computer.

2. Open a web browser, enter http://192.168.0.1 and press Enter. When the login window appears, set the user name to

Admin and leave the password box empty. Click Log In to continue.

3. Click on Advanced and then click Advanced Network. Uncheck the Enable UPnP checkbox. Click Save Settings to continue.

4. Click Setup and then click Network Settings. Uncheck the Enable DHCP Server checkbox. Click Save Settings to continue.

Connect to an Existing Router

5. Under Router Settings, enter an available IP address and the subnet mask of your network. Click Save Settings to save your

settings. Use this new IP address to access the conguration utility of the router in the future. Close the browser and change

your computer’s IP settings back to the original values as in Step 1.

6. Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the router and reconnect your computer to your network.

7. Connect an Ethernet cable in one of the LAN ports of the router and connect it to your other router. Do not plug anything

into the Internet (WAN) port of the D-Link router.

8. You may now use the other 3 LAN ports to connect other Ethernet devices and computers. To congure your wireless network,

open a web browser and enter the IP address you assigned to the router. Refer to the Conguration and Wireless Security

sections for more information on setting up your wireless network.

Section 4 - Security

Wireless Security

This section will show you the dierent levels of security you can use to protect your data from intruders. The

DIR-605L oers the following types of security:

• WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) • WPA2-PSK (Pre-Shared Key)

• WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) • WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key)

• WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)

What is WEP?

WEP stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy. It is based on the IEEE 802.11 standard and uses the RC4 encryption algorithm. WEP

provides security by encrypting data over your wireless network so that it is protected as it is transmitted from one wireless

device to another.

To gain access to a WEP network, you must know the key. The key is a string of characters that you create. When using WEP,

you must determine the level of encryption. The type of encryption determines the key length. 128-bit encryption requires a

longer key than 64-bit encryption. Keys are dened by entering in a string in HEX (hexadecimal - using characters 0-9, A-F) or

ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange – alphanumeric characters) format. ASCII format is provided so

you can enter a string that is easier to remember. The ASCII string is converted to HEX for use over the network. Four keys can

be dened so that you can change keys easily.

you enter this key exactly on all your wireless devices. You may

enter up to four dierent keys either using Hex or ASCII. Hex is

recommended (letters A-F and numbers 0-9 are valid). In ASCII all

numbers and letters are valid.

6. Click Save Settings to save your settings. If you are conguring

(www.whateveryournameis.com) with your dynamically assigned IP address. Most broadband Internet Service Providers assign

dynamic (changing) IP addresses. Using a DDNS service provider, your friends can enter in your domain name to connect to

your server no matter what your IP address is.

72D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Section 3 - Conguration

Wireless Security

This section will show you the dierent levels of security you can use to protect your data from intruders. The

DIR-605L oers the following types of security:

• WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) • WPA2-PSK (Pre-Shared Key)

• WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) • WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key)

• WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)

What is WEP?

WEP stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy. It is based on the IEEE 802.11 standard and uses the RC4 encryption algorithm. WEP

provides security by encrypting data over your wireless network so that it is protected as it is transmitted from one wireless

device to another.

To gain access to a WEP network, you must know the key. The key is a string of characters that you create. When using WEP,

you must determine the level of encryption. The type of encryption determines the key length. 128-bit encryption requires a

longer key than 64-bit encryption. Keys are dened by entering in a string in HEX (hexadecimal - using characters 0-9, A-F) or

ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange – alphanumeric characters) format. ASCII format is provided so

you can enter a string that is easier to remember. The ASCII string is converted to HEX for use over the network. Four keys can

be dened so that you can change keys easily.

Section 3 - Conguration

Congure WEP

It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless router

before your wireless network adapters. Please establish wireless

connectivity before enabling encryption. Your wireless signal may

degrade when enabling encryption due to the added overhead.

1. Log into the web-based conguration by opening a web browser

and entering the IP address of the router (192.168.0.1).

Click on Wireless Setup on the left side.

2. In the Security Mode section, select WEP from the drop-down

menu.

3. In WEP Key Length, select either 64Bit or 128Bit encryption from

the drop-down menu.

5. Next to WEP Key 1, enter a WEP key that you create. Make sure

you enter this key exactly on all your wireless devices. You may

enter up to four dierent keys either using Hex or ASCII. Hex is

recommended (letters A-F and numbers 0-9 are valid). In ASCII all

numbers and letters are valid.

6. Click Save Settings to save your settings. If you are conguring the router with a wireless adapter, you will lose connectivity

until you enable WEP on your adapter and enter the same WEP key as you did on the router.

Troubleshooting

This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and operation of the DIR-505. Read the

following descriptions if you are having problems. The examples below are illustrated in Windows® XP. If you have a dierent

operating system, the screenshots on your computer will look similar to the following examples.

1. Why can’t I access the web-based conguration utility?

When entering the IP address of the D-Link router (192.168.0.1 for example), you are not connecting to a website nor do you

have to be connected to the Internet. The device has the utility built-in to a ROM chip in the device itself. Your computer must

be on the same IP subnet to connect to the web-based utility.

• Make sure you have an updated Java-enabled web browser. We recommend the following:

- Microsoft Internet Explorer® 6.0 and higher

- Mozilla Firefox 3.0 and higher

- Google™ Chrome 2.0 and higher

- Apple Safari 3.0 and higher

• Verify physical connectivity by checking for solid link lights on the device. If you do not get a solid link light, try using a

dierent cable or connect to a dierent port on the device if possible. If the computer is turned o, the link light may not be

on.

• Disable any Internet security software running on the computer. Software rewalls such as Zone Alarm, Black Ice, Sygate,

Norton Personal Firewall, and Windows® XP rewall may block access to the conguration pages. Check the help les included

with your rewall software for more information on disabling or conguring it.

122D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Section 6 - Troubleshooting

• Congure your Internet settings:

• Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel. Double-click the Internet Options Icon. From the Security tab, click

the button to restore the settings to their defaults.

• Click the Connection tab and set the dial-up option to Never Dial a Connection. Click the LAN Settings button.

Make sure nothing is checked. Click OK.

• Go to the Advanced tab and click the button to restore these settings to their defaults. Click OK three times.

• Close your web browser (if open) and open it.

• Access the web management. Open your web browser and enter the IP address of your D-Link router in the address bar. This

should open the login page for your web management.

• If you still cannot access the conguration, unplug the power to the router for 10 seconds and plug back in. Wait about 30

seconds and try accessing the conguration. If you have multiple computers, try connecting using a dierent computer.

2. What can I do if I forgot my password?

If you forgot your password, you must reset your router. Unfortunately this process will change all your settings back to the

factory defaults.

To reset the router, locate the reset button (hole) on the rear panel of the unit. With the router powered on, use a paperclip

to hold the button down for 10 seconds. Release the button and the router will go through its reboot process. Wait about 30

seconds to access the router. The default IP address is 192.168.0.1. When logging in, the username is admin and leave the

password box empty.

123D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Section 6 - Troubleshooting

3. Why can’t I connect to certain sites or send and receive emails when connecting through my router?

If you are having a problem sending or receiving email, or connecting to secure sites such as eBay, banking sites, and Hotmail,

we suggest lowering the MTU in increments of ten (Ex. 1492, 1482, 1472, etc).

To nd the proper MTU Size, you’ll have to do a special ping of the destination you’re trying to go to. A destination could be

another computer, or a URL.

• Click on Start and then click Run.

• Windows® 95, 98, and Me users type in command (Windows® NT, 2000, XP, Vista®, and 7 users type in cmd) and

press Enter (or click OK).

• Once the window opens, you’ll need to do a special ping. Use the following syntax:

ping [url] [-f] [-l] [MTU value]

Example: ping yahoo.com -f -l 1472

124D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Section 6 - Troubleshooting

You should start at 1472 and work your way down by 10 each time. Once you get a reply, go up by 2 until you get a fragmented

packet. Take that value and add 28 to the value to account for the various TCP/IP headers. For example, lets say that 1452 was the

proper value, the actual MTU size would be 1480, which is the optimum for the network we’re working with (1452+28=1480).

Once you nd your MTU, you can now congure your router with the proper MTU size.

To change the MTU rate on your router follow the steps below:

• Open your browser, enter the IP address of your router (192.168.0.1) and click OK.

• Enter your username (admin) and password (blank by default). Click OK to enter the web conguration page

for the device.

• Click on Setup and then click Manual Congure.

• To change the MTU enter the number in the MTU eld and click Save Settings to save your settings.

• Test your email. If changing the MTU does not resolve the problem, continue changing the MTU in increments

of ten.

Appendix A - Wireless Basics

D-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 cellular computer network that transmits and receives data with radio signals instead of

wires. Wireless LANs are used increasingly in both home and oce environments, and public areas such as airports, coee shops

and universities. Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are helping people to work and communicate more eciently.

Increased mobility and the absence of cabling and other xed infrastructure have proven to be benecial 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.

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

126D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix A - Wireless Basics

What is Wireless?

Wireless or Wi-Fi technology is another way of connecting your computer to the network without using wires. Wi-Fi uses radio

frequency to connect wirelessly, so you have the freedom to connect computers anywhere in your home or oce 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 aord. D-Link has all the products you need to build your network.

How does wireless work?

Wireless works similar to how cordless phone work, through radio signals to transmit data from one 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 dierent 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

as seen in the picture, 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.

127D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix A - Wireless Basics

Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN)

Bluetooth is the industry standard wireless technology used for WPAN. Bluetooth devices in WPAN operate in a range up to

30 feet away.

Compared to WLAN the speed and wireless operation range are both less than WLAN, but in return it doesn’t use nearly as

much power which makes it ideal for personal devices, such as mobile phones, PDAs, headphones, laptops, speakers, and other

devices that operate on batteries.

Who uses wireless?

Wireless technology as become so popular in recent years that almost everyone is using it, whether it’s for home, oce, business,

D-Link has a wireless solution for it.

Home

• Gives everyone at home broadband access

• Surf the web, check email, instant message, etc.

• Gets rid of the cables around the house

• Simple and easy to use

Small Oce and Home Oce

• Stay on top of everything at home as you would at oce

• Remotely access your oce network from home

• Share Internet connection and printer with multiple computers

• No need to dedicate oce space

128D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix A - Wireless Basics

Where is wireless used?

Wireless technology is expanding everywhere not just at home or oce. 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. The wireless connection in public

places is usually called “hotspots”.

Using a D-Link Cardbus Adapter with your laptop, you can access the hotspot to connect to Internet from remote locations

like: Airports, Hotels, Coee Shops, Libraries, Restaurants, and Convention Centers.

Wireless network is easy to setup, but if you’re installing it for the rst 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.

Tips

Here 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 signicantly reduce any interference that the appliances might cause since they operate on same frequency.

Security

129D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix A - Wireless Basics

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 product manual for detail information on how to set it up.

There 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 DIR-505 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.

Version 3, 29 June 2007

copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

135D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix E - GNU General Public License

Preamble

The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for software and other kinds of works.

The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed to take away your freedom to share and change the

works. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change all versions

of a program--to make sure it remains free software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the GNU General

Public License for most of our software; it applies also to any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to

your programs, too.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make

sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for them if you wish), that you receive source

code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs, and that you know

you can do these things.

To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore,

you have certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it: responsibilities to respect the

freedom of others.

For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the

same freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show

them these terms so they know their rights.

Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:

(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) oer you this License giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or

modify it.

For the developers’ and authors’ protection, the GPL clearly explains that there is no warranty for this free software. For both

users’ and authors’ sake, the GPL requires that modied versions be marked as changed, so that their problems will not be

attributed erroneously to authors of previous versions.

Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run modied versions of the software inside them, although

the manufacturer can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of protecting users’ freedom to change the

software. The systematic pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to use, which is precisely where it

is most unacceptable. Therefore, we have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those products. If such

problems arise substantially in other domains, we stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions of

the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.

Appendix E - GNU General Public License

Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents. States should not allow patents to restrict development

and use of software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to avoid the special danger that patents

applied to a free program could make it eectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that patents cannot be used

to render the program non-free.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modication follow.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

0. Denitions.

“This License” refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.

“Copyright” also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of works, such as semiconductor masks.

“The Program” refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this License. Each licensee is addressed as “you”. “Licensees”

and “recipients” may be individuals or organizations.

To “modify” a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than

the making of an exact copy. The resulting work is called a “modied version” of the earlier work or a work “based on” the

earlier work.

A “covered work” means either the unmodied Program or a work based on the Program.

To “propagate” a work means to do anything with it that, without permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable

for infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation

includes copying, distribution (with or without modication), making available to the public, and in some countries other

activities as well.

To “convey” a work means any kind of propagation that enables other parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with

a user through a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.

An interactive user interface displays “Appropriate Legal Notices” to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently

visible feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2) tells the user that there is no warranty for the work

(except to the extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the work under this License, and how to view a

copy of this License. If the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a menu, a prominent item in the list

meets this criterion.

137D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix E - GNU General Public License

1. Source Code.

The “source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modications to it. “Object code” means any

non-source form of a work.

A “Standard Interface” means an interface that either is an ocial standard dened by a recognized standards body, or, in the

case of interfaces specied for a particular programming language, one that is widely used among developers working in that

language.

The “System Libraries” of an executable work include anything, other than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the

normal form of packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major Component, and (b) serves only to enable

use of the work with that Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an implementation is available

to the public in source code form. A “Major Component”, in this context, means a major essential component (kernel, window

system, and so on) of the specic operating system (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to produce

the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.

The “Corresponding Source” for a work in object code form means all the source code needed to generate, install, and (for

an executable work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to control those activities. However, it

does not include the work’s System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free programs which are used

unmodied in performing those activities but which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source includes

interface denition les associated with source les for the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically

linked subprograms that the work is specically designed to require, such as by intimate data communication or control ow

between those subprograms and other parts of the work.

The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users can regenerate automatically from other parts of the

Corresponding Source.

The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that same work.

Appendix E - GNU General Public License

2. Basic Permissions.

All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the

stated conditions are met. This License explicitly arms your unlimited permission to run the unmodied Program. The

output from running a covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its content, constitutes a covered

work. This License acknowledges your rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.

You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey, without conditions so long as your license oth-

erwise remains in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose of having them make modications

exclusively for you, or provide you with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with the terms of this

License in conveying all material for which you do not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works

for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any

copies of your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.

Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed;

section 10 makes it unnecessary.

3. Protecting Users’ Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.

No covered work shall be deemed part of an eective technological measure under any applicable law fullling obligations

under article 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or similar laws prohibiting or restricting

circumvention of such measures.

When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid circumvention of technological measures to the extent

such circumvention

is eected by exercising rights under this License with respect to the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit

operation or modication of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work’s users, your or third parties’ legal rights to

forbid circumvention of technological measures.

139D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix E - GNU General Public License

4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.

You may convey verbatim copies of the Program’s source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously

and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice; keep intact all notices stating that this License and

any non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code; keep intact all notices of the absence of any

warranty; and give all recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.

You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, and you may oer support or warranty protection for a

fee.

5. Conveying Modied Source Versions.

You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modications to produce it from the Program, in the form of source

code under the terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modied it, and giving a relevant date.

b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is released under this License and any conditions added

under section 7. This requirement modies the requirement in section 4 to “keep intact all notices”.

c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this License to anyone who comes into possession of a

copy. This License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7 additional terms, to the whole of

the work, and all its parts, regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no permission to license the

work in any other way, but it does not invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.

d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program

has interactive interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your work need not make them do so.

A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent works, which are not by their nature extensions of

the covered work, and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program, in or on a volume of a storage or

distribution medium, is called an “aggregate” if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not used to limit the access or

legal rights of the compilation’s users beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work in an aggregate

does not cause this License to apply to the other parts of the aggregate.

140D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix E - GNU General Public License

6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.

You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the

machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, in one of these ways:

a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product (including a physical distribution medium),

accompanied by the Corresponding Source xed on a durable physical medium customarily used for software

interchange.

b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product (including a physical distribution medium),

accompanied by a written oer, valid for at least three years and valid for as long as you oer spare parts or

customer support for that product model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a copy

of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the product that is covered by this License, on a durable

physical medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no more than your reasonable cost of

physically performing this conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the Corresponding Source from a network

server at no charge.

c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the written oer to provide the Corresponding

Source. This alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and only if you received the object

code with such an oer, in accord with subsection 6b.

d) Convey the object code by oering access from a designated place (gratis or for a charge), and oer equivalent

access to the Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no further charge. You need

not require recipients to copy the Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to copy the

object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source may be on a dierent server (operated by you or

a third party) that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain clear directions next to the

object code saying where to nd the Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the Corresponding

Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.

e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided you inform other peers where the object

code and Corresponding Source of the work are being oered to the general public at no charge under

subsection 6d.

A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded from the Corresponding Source as a System

Library, need not be included in conveying the object code work.

141D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix E - GNU General Public License

A “User Product” is either (1) a “consumer product”, which means any tangible personal property which is normally used for

personal, family, or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation into a dwelling. In determining

whether a product is a consumer product, doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular product

received by a particular user, “normally used” refers to a typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status

of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A

product is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial commercial, industrial or non-consumer

uses, unless such uses represent the only signicant mode of use of the product.

“Installation Information” for a User Product means any methods, procedures, authorization keys, or other information required

to install and execute modied versions of a covered work in that User Product from a modied version of its Corresponding

Source. The information must suce to ensure that the continued functioning of the modied object code is in no case

prevented or interfered with solely because modication has been made.

If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or specically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying

occurs as part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the User Product is transferred to the recipient in

perpetuity or for a xed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the Corresponding Source conveyed under

this section must be accompanied by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply if neither you nor any

third party retains the ability to install modied object code on the User Product (for example, the work has been installed in

ROM).

The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a requirement to continue to provide support service,

warranty, or updates for a work that has been modied or installed by the recipient, or for the User Product in which it has

been modied or installed. Access to a network may be denied when the modication itself materially and adversely aects

the operation of the network or violates the rules and protocols for communication across the network.

Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided, in accord with this section must be in a format that is

publicly documented (and with an implementation available to the public in source code form), and must require no special

password or key for unpacking, reading or copying.

142D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix E - GNU General Public License

7. Additional Terms.

“Additional permissions” are terms that supplement the terms of this License by making exceptions from one or more of its

conditions. Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall be treated as though they were included in

this License, to the extent that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions apply only to part of the Program,

that part may be used separately under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by this License without

regard to the additional permissions.

When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option remove any additional permissions from that copy, or

from any part of it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own removal in certain cases when you modify

the work). You may place additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work, for which you have or can give

appropriate copyright permission.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the

a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability dierently from the terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or

b) Requiring preservation of specied reasonable legal notices or author attributions in that material or in the

Appropriate Legal Notices displayed by works containing it; or

c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or requiring that modied versions of such material

be marked in reasonable ways as dierent from the original version; or

d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or authors of the material; or

e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or

f) Requiring indemnication of licensors and authors of that material by anyone who conveys the material (or

modied versions of it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for any liability that these

contractual assumptions directly impose on those licensors and authors.

143D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix E - GNU General Public License

All other non-permissive additional terms are considered “further restrictions” within the meaning of section 10. If the Program

as you received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is governed by this License along with a term that is a

further restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains a further restriction but permits relicensing

or conveying under this License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms of that license document,

provided that the further restriction does not survive such relicensing or conveying.

If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you must place, in the relevant source les, a statement of the

additional terms that apply to those les, or a notice indicating where to nd the applicable terms.

Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the form of a separately written license, or stated as

exceptions; the above requirements apply either way.

8. Termination.

You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to

propagate or modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License (including any patent licenses

granted under the third paragraph of section 11).

However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)

provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and nally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the

Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated permanently if the copyright holder noties you of the

violation by some reasonable means, this is the rst time you have received notice of violation of this License (for any work)

from that copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after your receipt of the notice.

Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the licenses of parties who have received copies or rights

144D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix E - GNU General Public License

from you under this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently reinstated, you do not qualify to

receive new licenses for the same material under section 10.

9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.

You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a

covered work occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission to receive a copy likewise does not

require acceptance. However, nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or modify any covered

work. These actions infringe copyright if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a covered

work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.

10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.

Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify

and propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with this

License.

An “entity transaction” is a transaction transferring control of an organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing

an organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered work results from an entity transaction, each party

to that transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever licenses to the work the party’s predecessor in

interest had or could give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the Corresponding Source of the work

from the predecessor in interest, if the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable eorts.

You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the rights granted or armed under this License. For example,

you may not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of rights granted under this License, and you may not

initiate litigation (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that any patent claim is infringed by making,

using, selling, oering for sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.

145D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix E - GNU General Public License

11. Patents.

A “contributor” is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this License of the Program or a work on which the Program is

based. The work thus licensed is called the contributor’s “contributor version”.

A contributor’s “essential patent claims” are all patent claims owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired

or hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted by this License, of making, using, or selling its

contributor version, but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a consequence of further modication of

the contributor version. For purposes of this denition, “control” includes the right to grant patent sublicenses in a manner

consistent with the requirements of this License.

Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent license under the contributor’s essential patent

claims, to make, use, sell, oer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and propagate the contents of its contributor version.

In the following three paragraphs, a “patent license” is any express agreement or commitment, however denominated, not

to enforce a patent (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to sue for patent infringement). To

“grant” such a patent license to a party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a patent against the

party.

If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license, and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available

for anyone to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a publicly available network server or other

readily accessible means, then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so available, or (2) arrange to deprive

yourself of the benet of the patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner consistent with the requirements

of this License, to extend the patent license to downstream recipients. “Knowingly relying” means you have actual knowledge

that, but for the patent license, your conveying the covered work in a country, or your recipient’s use of the covered work in a

country, would infringe one or more identiable patents in that country that you have reason to believe are valid.

If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance

of, a covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties receiving the covered work authorizing them to use,

propagate, modify or convey a specic copy of the covered work, then the patent license you grant is automatically extended

to all recipients of the covered work and works based on it.

146D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix E - GNU General Public License

A patent license is “discriminatory” if it does not include within the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is

conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are specically granted under this License. You may not

convey a covered work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is in the business of distributing software,

under which you make payment to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying the work, and under which

the third party grants, to any of the parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory patent license (a)

in connection with copies of the covered work conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily for and in

connection with specic products or compilations that contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,

or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.

Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting any implied license or other defenses to infringement that

may otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.

12. No Surrender of Others’ Freedom.

If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this

License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a covered work so as to satisfy

simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not

convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to

whom you convey the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this License would be to refrain entirely

from conveying the Program.

13. Use with the GNU Aero General Public License.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have permission to link or combine any covered work with a work

licensed under version 3 of the GNU Aero General Public License into a single combined work, and to convey the resulting

work. The terms of this License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work, but the special requirements of

the GNU Aero General Public License, section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the combination

as such.

147D-Link DIR-505 User Manual

Appendix E - GNU General Public License

14. Revised Versions of this License.

The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the GNU General Public License from time to time.

Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may dier in detail to address new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program species that a certain numbered version of the GNU

General Public License “or any later version” applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of

that numbered version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify

a version number of the GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software

Foundation. If the Program species that a proxy can decide which future versions of the GNU General Public License can

be used, that proxy’s public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you to choose that version for the

Program.

Later license versions may give you additional or dierent permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on

any author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a later version.

15. Disclaimer of Warranty.

THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE

STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF

ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY

AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS

WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR

CORRECTION.

16. Limitation of Liability.

IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY

OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,

INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO

USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES

SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF

SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Appendix E - GNU General Public License

17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.

If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided above cannot be given local legal eect according to their

terms, reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection

with the Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a copy of the Program in return for a fee.
