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

by the traic of the other devices on the network.
In the Features menu on the bar on the top of the page, click QoS Engine.

some are of-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

wires. Wireless LANs are used increasingly in both home and oice environments, and public areas such as airports, cofee shops
and universities. Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are helping people to work and communicate more eiciently.
Increased mobility and the absence of cabling and other ixed infrastructure have proven to be beneicial 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 oice 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 aford. 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

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.

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 doesnât 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 itâs for home, oice, business,
D-Link has a wireless solution for it.

Where is wireless used?
Wireless technology is expanding everywhere not just at home or oice. People like the freedom of mobility and itâs 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 âhotspotsâ.
Using a D-Link CardBus Adapter with your laptop, you can access the hotspot to connect to Internet from remote locations
like: airports, hotels, cofee shops, libraries, restaurants, and convention centers.
Wireless network is easy to setup, but if youâre installing it for the irst time it could be quite a task not knowing where to start.
Thatâs why weâve 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 signiicantly reduce any interference that the appliances might cause since they operate on same frequency.
D-Link DIR-842 User Manual

Appendix A - Wireless Basics
Security
Donât 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.
Wireless Modes
There are basically two modes of networking:
t Infrastructure â All wireless clients will connect to an access point or wireless router.
t "E)PD â 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.
