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
PGNBUFSJBMTBOECBDLHSPVOE3'SBEJPGSFRVFODZOPJTFJOZPVSIPNFPSCVTJOFTT5IFLFZUPNBYJNJ[JOHXJSFMFTTSBOHFJTUP
follow these basic guidelines:
1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the D-Link router and other network devices to a minimum -

This section will allow you to prioritize particular clients over others, so that those
clients receive higher bandwidth. For example, if one client is streaming a movie
and another is downloading a non-urgent le, you might wish to assign the former
device a higher priority than the latter so that the movie streaming is not disrupted
by the trac of the other devices on the network.
In the Features menu on the bar on the top of the page, click QoS Engine.
Under All Devices, you will see device cards representing each connected client. If
some are o-screen, you can use the < and > buttons to scroll through the cards.
A maximum of one device can be assigned Highest priority.
A maximum of two devices can be assigned High priority.
A maximum of eight devices can be assigned Medium priority.
If no devices are explicitly assigned a priority, they will all be treated with equal
priority. If some devices are not assigned a priority and others are, the unassigned
devices will be treated with the lowest priority.
To assign a priority level to a device, drag the device card from the All Devices list
over an empty slot and release the mouse button. The card will remain in the slot.
If you want to remove a priority assignment from a device and return it to the All

and universities. Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are helping people to work and communicate more eciently.
Increased mobility and the absence of cabling and other xed infrastructure have proven to be benecial 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.

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 oce 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 aord. 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

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, oce, business,
D-Link has a wireless solution for it.

Where is wireless used?
Wireless technology is expanding everywhere not just at home or oce. 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, coee 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.
$FOUSBMJ[FZPVSSPVUFSPSBDDFTTQPJOU
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 signicantly reduce any interference that the appliances might cause since they operate on same frequency.
95D-Link DIR-842 User Manual
Appendix A - Wireless Basics
Security
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:
t Infrastructure – All wireless clients will connect to an access point or wireless router.
t "E)PD – Directly connecting to another computer, for peer-to-peer communication, using wireless network
adapters on each computer, such as two or more 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.
