PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) Security – The DSL-2640R ADSL Router supports PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) and CHAP (Challenge Handshake
Authentication Protocol) for PPP connections. The Router also supports MSCHAP.
DHCP Support – Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol automatically and dynamically assigns all LAN IP settings to each host on your network. This eliminates the need
to reconfigure every host whenever changes in network topology occur.
Network Address Translation (NAT) – For small office environments, the DSL-2640R allows multiple users on the LAN to access the Internet concurrently through a
single Internet account. This provides Internet access to everyone in the office for the price of a single user. NAT improves network security in effect by hiding the private
network behind one global and visible IP address. NAT address mapping can also be used to link two IP domains via a LAN-to-LAN connection.
TCP/IP (Transfer Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) – The DSL-2640R supports TCP/IP protocol, the language used for the Internet. It is compatible with access
servers manufactured by major vendors.
RIP-1/RIP-2 – The DSL-2640R supports both RIP-1 and RIP-2 exchanges with other routers. Using both versions lets the Router to communicate with all RIP enabled
devices.
Static Routing – This allows you to select a data path to a particular network destination that will remain in the routing table and never “age out”. If you wish to define a
specific route that will always be used for data traffic from your LAN to a specific destination within your LAN (for example to another router or a server) or outside your
network (to an ISP defined default gateway for instance).
Default Routing – This allows you to choose a default path for incoming data packets for which the destination address is unknown. This is particularly useful when/if the
Router functions as the sole connection to the Internet.
Precise ATM Traffic Shaping – Traffic shaping is a method of controlling the flow rate of ATM data cells. This function helps to establish the Quality of Service for ATM
data transfer.
Full Network Management – The DSL-2640R incorporates SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) support for web-based management and text-based
network management.
Easy Installation – The DSL-2640R uses a web-based graphical user interface program for convenient management access and easy set up. Any common web
browser software can be used to manage the Router.

Installation Overview
Installation
This section will walk you through the installation process. Placement of the Wireless ADSL Router is very important. Do not place the Router in an enclosed area such as a
closet, cabinet, or in the attic or garage. Place the Wireless ADSL Router in a location where it can be easily connected to Ethernet devices, the telephone line as well as to a
power source.
Before You Begin
Please read and make sure you understand all the prerequisites for proper installation of your new Router. Have all the necessary information and equipment on hand before
beginning the installation.
Installation Notes
In order to establish a connection to the Internet it will be necessary to provide information to the Router that will be stored in its memory. For some users, only their account
information (Username and Password) is required. For others, various parameters that control and define the Internet connection will be required. You can print out the two pages
below and use the tables to list this information. This way you have a hard copy of all the information needed to setup the Router. If it is necessary to reconfigure the device, all
the necessary information can be easily accessed. Be sure to keep this information safe and private.
Low Pass Filters
Since ADSL and telephone services share the same copper wiring to carry their respective signals, a filtering mechanism may be necessary to avoid mutual interference. A low
pass filter device can be installed for each telephone that shares the line with the ADSL line. These filters are easy to install passive devices that connect to the ADSL device
and/or telephone using standard telephone cable. Ask your service provider for more information about the use of low pass filters with your installation.
Operating Systems
The DSL-2640R uses an HTML-based web interface for setup and management. The web configuration manager may be accessed using any operating system capable of
running web browser software, including Windows 98 SE, Windows ME, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Vista.
Web Browser
Any common web browser can be used to configure the Router using the web configuration management software. The program is designed to work best with more recently
released browsers such as Opera, Microsoft Internet Explorer® version 6.0, Netscape Navigator® version 6.2.3, or later versions. The web browser must have JavaScript
D-Link DSL-2640R User Manual
Installation Overview
enabled. JavaScript is enabled by default on many browsers. Make sure JavaScript has not been disabled by other software (such as virus protection or web user security
packages) that may be running on your computer.
Ethernet Port (NIC Adapter)
Any computer that uses the Router must be able to connect to it through the Ethernet port on the Router. This connection is an Ethernet connection and therefore requires that
your computer be equipped with an Ethernet port as well. Most notebook computers are now sold with an Ethernet port already installed. Likewise, most fully assembled desktop
computers come with an Ethernet NIC adapter as standard equipment. If your computer does not have an Ethernet port, you must install an Ethernet NIC adapter before you can
use the Router. If you must install an adapter, follow the installation instructions that come with the Ethernet NIC adapter.
Additional Software
It may be necessary to install software on your computer that enables the computer to access the Internet. Additional software must be installed if you are using the device a
simple bridge. For a bridged connection, the information needed to make and maintain the Internet connection is stored on another computer or gateway device, not in the
Router itself.
If your ADSL service is delivered through a PPPoE or PPPoA connection, the information needed to establish and maintain the Internet connection can be stored in the Router. In
this case, it is not necessary to install software on your computer. It may however be necessary to change some settings in the device, including account information used to
identify and verify the connection.
All connections to the Internet require a unique global IP address. For bridged connections, the global IP settings must reside in a TCP/IP enabled device on the LAN side of the
bridge, such as a PC, a server, a gateway device such as a router or similar firewall hardware. The IP address can be assigned in a number of ways. Your network service
provider will give you instructions about any additional connection software or NIC configuration that may be required.
Wireless LAN
Computers using the Wireless network can access the Internet or use the embedded 802.1g wireless access point. Wireless workstations must have an 802.1g or 802.1b
wireless network card installed to use the Wireless ADSL Router. In addition the workstations must be configured to operate on the same channel and SSID as the Wireless
ADSL Router. If wireless security is used, the wireless workstations must be properly configured for the security settings used.
D-Link DSL-2640R User Manual
Installation Overview
Information you will need from your ADSL service provider
Username
This is the Username used to log on to your ADSL service provider’s network. Your ADSL service provider uses this to identify your account.
Password
This is the Password used, in conjunction with the Username above, to log on to your ADSL service provider’s network. This is used to verify the identity of your account.
WAN Setting / Connection Type
These settings describe the method your ADSL service provider uses to transport data between the Internet and your computer. Most users will use the default settings. You may
need to specify one of the following WAN Setting and Connection Type configurations (Connection Type settings listed in parenthesis):
• PPPoE/PPPoA (PPPoE LLC, PPPoE VC-Mux, PPPoA LLC or PPPoA VC-Mux)
• Dynamic IP Address (1483 Bridged IP LLC, 1483 Bridged IP VC-Mux)
• Static IP Address (1483 Bridged IP LLC, 1483 Bridged IP VC-Mux, 1483 Routed IP LLC(IPoA) or 1483 Routed IP VC-Mux)
• Bridge Mode (1483 Bridged IP LLC or 1483 Bridged IP VC Mux)
Modulation Type
ADSL uses various standardized modulation techniques to transmit data over the allotted signal frequencies. Some users may need to change the type of modulation used for
their service. The default DSL modulation (Auto Synch-Up) used for the Router automatically detects all types of ADSL, ADSL2, and ADSL2+ modulation.
Security Protocol
This is the method your ADSL service provider will use to verify your Username and Password when you log on to their network. Your Router supports the PAP and CHAP
protocols.
VPI
Most users will not be required to change this setting. The Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) is used in conjunction with the Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) to identify the data path
between your ADSL service provider’s network and your computer. If you are setting up the Router for multiple virtual connections, you will need to configure the VPI and VCI as
instructed by your ADSL service provider for the additional connections. This setting can be changed in the WAN Settings window of the web management interface.
VCI
Most users will not be required to change this setting. The Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) used in conjunction with the VPI to identify the data path between your ADSL service
provider’s network and your computer. If you are setting up the Router for multiple virtual connections, you will need to configure the VPI and VCI as instructed by your ADSL
service provider for the additional connections. This setting can be changed in the WAN Settings window of the web management interface.

Information you will need about your LAN or computer
Ethernet NIC
If your computer has an Ethernet NIC, you can connect the DSL-2640R to this Ethernet port using an Ethernet cable. You can also use the Ethernet ports on the DSL-2640R to
connect to other computer or Ethernet devices.
DHCP Client status
Your DSL-2640R ADSL Router is configured, by default, to be a DHCP server. This means that it can assign an IP address, subnet mask, and a default gateway address to
computers on your LAN. The default range of IP addresses the DSL-2640R will assign are from 192.168.1.5 to 192.168.1.32. Your computer (or computers) needs to be
configured to obtain an IP address automatically (that is, they need to be configured as DHCP clients.)
It is recommended that you collect and record this information here, or in some other secure place, in case you have to re-configure your ADSL connection in the future.
Once you have the above information, you are ready to setup and configure your DSL-2640R ADSL Router.
Device Installation
The Wireless ADSL Router maintains three separate interfaces, an ADSL, an Ethernet, and a Wireless LAN interface. Place the Wireless ADSL Router in a location where it can
be easily connected to Ethernet devices, the telephone line as well as to a power source.
The Router can be placed on a shelf or desktop, ideally you should be able to see the LED indicators on the front if you need to view them for troubleshooting.

Installation Overview
Network Connections
Connect ADSL Line
Use the ADSL cable included with the Router to connect it to a telephone wall socket or receptacle. Plug one end of the cable into the ADSL port (RJ-11 receptacle) on the rear
panel of the Router and insert the other end into the RJ-11 wall socket. If you are using a low pass filter device, follow the instructions included with the device or given to you by
your service provider. The ADSL connection represents the WAN interface, the connection to the Internet. It is the physical link to the service provider’s network backbone and
ultimately to the Internet.
Connect Router to Ethernet
The Router may be connected to a single computer or Ethernet device through the 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet port on the rear panel. Any connection to an Ethernet concentrating
device such as a switch or hub must operate at a speed of 10/100 Mbps only. When connecting the Router to any Ethernet device that is capable of operating at speeds higher
than 10Mbps, be sure that the device has auto-negotiation (NWay) enabled for the connecting port. Use standard twisted-pair cable with RJ-45 connectors. The RJ-45 port on
the Router is a crossed port (MDI-X). Follow standard Ethernet guidelines when deciding what type of cable to use to make this connection. When connecting the Router directly
to a PC or server use a normal straight-through cable. You should use a crossed cable when connecting the Router to a normal (MDI-X) port on a switch or hub. Use a normal
straight-through cable when connecting it to an uplink (MDI-II) port on a hub or switch. The rules governing Ethernet cable lengths apply to the LAN to Router connection. Be sure
that the cable connecting the LAN to the Router does not exceed 100 meters.
Hub or Switch to Router Connection
Connect the Router to an uplink port (MDI-II) on an Ethernet hub or switch with a straight-through cable. If you wish to reserve the uplink port on the switch or hub for another
device, connect to any on the other MDI-X ports (1x, 2x, etc.) with a crossed cable.
Computer to Router Connection
You can connect the Router directly to a 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet adapter card (NIC) installed on a PC using the Ethernet cable provided.
Wireless Connection to Router
The Router’s embedded 802.11g wireless access point should be configured to suit the local wireless network. All 802.11g or 802.11b devices that associate with the Router’s
wireless access point must have the same SSID and channel. If wireless security is used, the wireless clients must be configured with the correct security information to use the
Router. More information on configuring the wireless settings is found later in this manual.

Manual ADSL Setup – PPPoE/PPPoA
Follow the instructions below to configure the Router to use a PPPoE or PPPoA for the Internet connection.
Most users will only need to change some or all of the settings listed under WAN
Connection Setting and PPPoE/PPPoA.
To configure a PPPoE or PPPoA type WAN connection, follow these steps:
1. Under the PPPoE/PPPoA heading, type the User Name and Password used
for your ADSL account. A typical User Name will be in the form
user1234@isp.co.uk. The Password may be assigned to you by your ISP or you
may have selected it when you set up the account with your ISP.
2. Choose the Connection Type from the pull-down menu located under the User
Name and Password entry fields. This defines both the connection protocol and
encapsulation method used for your ADSL service. The available options are
PPPoA VC-Mux, PPPoA LLC, PPPoE VC-Mux and PPPoE LLC. If you have not
been provided specific information for the Connection Type setting, leave the
default setting.
3. Leave the MTU value at the default setting (default = 1500) unless you have
specific reasons to change this (see table below for more information).
4. For time-based accounts, type an Idle Time Out in minutes. Accounts that are
not time-based will want to choose the default connection setting 0=Always ON.
5. NAT should remain Enable. If you disable NAT, you will not be able to use more
than one computer for Internet connections. NAT is enabled and disabled
system-wide, therefore if you are using multiple virtual connections, NAT will be
disabled on all connections.
6. Leave the Default Route enabled if you want to use the Router as the default
route to the Internet for your LAN. Whenever a computer on the LAN attempts to
access the Internet, the Router becomes the Internet gateway to the computer. If
you have an alternative route for Internet traffic you may disable this without
effecting the Router’s connection.

Manual ADSL Setup – Dynamic IP Address
Follow the instructions below to configure the Router to use a Dynamic IP Address for the Internet connection.
To configure a Dynamic IP Address connection for the WAN, follow these steps:
1. Choose the Connection Type from the pull-down menu. This defines both the
connection type and encapsulation method used for your ADSL service. The
available options are 1483 Bridged IP LLC and 1483 Bridged IP VC-Mux. If you
have not been provided specific information for the Connection Type setting,
leave the default setting.
2. Some ISPs record the unique MAC address of your computer’s Ethernet adapter
when you first access their network. This can prevent the Router (which has a
different MAC address) from being allowed access to the ISPs network (and the
Internet). To clone the MAC address of your computer’s Ethernet adapter, type in
the MAC address in the MAC Address field and click the Clone MAC Address
button.
3. NAT should remain Enabled. If you disable NAT, you will not be able to use more
than one computer for Internet connections. If you are using multiple virtual
connections, NAT functions system-wide, therefore if t is disabled, NAT will be
disabled on all connections.
4. Leave the Default Route enabled if you want to use the Router as the default
route to the Internet for your LAN. Whenever a computer on the LAN attempts to
access the Internet, the Router becomes the Internet gateway to the computer. If
you have an alternative route for Internet traffic you may disable this without
effecting the Router’s connection.

Manual ADSL Setup – Static IP Address
Follow the instructions below to configure the Router to use a Static IP Address for the Internet connection.
To configure a Static IP type connection for the WAN, follow these steps:
1. Choose the Connection Type from the pull-down menu. This defines both the
connection type and encapsulation method used for your ADSL service. The
available options are 1483 Bridged IP LLC, 1483 Bridged IP VC-Mux, 1483
Routed IP LLC, 1483 Routed IP VC-Mux or IpoA. If you have not been provided
specific information for the Connection Type setting, leave the default setting.
2. Change the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway address as
instructed by your ISP. These are the global IP settings for the WAN interface.
This is the “visible” IP address of your account.
3. NAT should remain Enable. If you disable NAT, you will not be able to use more
than one computer for Internet connections. NAT is enabled and disabled
system-wide, therefore if you are using multiple virtual connections, NAT will be
disabled on all connections.

Wireless Setup - WPA
Wi-Fi Protected Access was designed to provide improved data encryption, perceived as weak in WEP, and to provide user authentication, largely nonexistent in WEP. There are
two versions of WPA, both are supported by the access point. WPA-Personal encryption uses a pre-shared key for authentication and requires periodic re-authentication from
associating wireless stations.
To configure WPA settings:
