D-Link DWR-9 User Manual Section 1 - Product Overview Introduction D-Linkâs DWR-9 4G LTE Router allows you to access mobile broadband networks from anywhere. Once connected, you can check e-mail, surf the web, and stream media. Use your carrierâs SIM/UICC card to share your 4G Internet connection through a secure wireless network or by using any of the four 10/100 Ethernet ports. The DWR-9 lets you connect to your 4G mobile connection with fast downlink speeds of up to 100 Mbps and uplink speeds up to 50 Mbps, giving you the speed to ensure fast, responsive Internet access. Surf the web with ease and stream music and video over the Internet to your PCs and mobile devices. The DWR-9 utilizes dual-active firewalls (SPI and NAT) to prevent potential attacks across the Internet. Industry standard WPA/WPA2 wireless encryption keeps your wireless network secure and your traffic safe, allowing you to share your 4G connection without worrying about unauthorized users accessing your network. The DWR-9 can be installed quickly and easily almost anywhere. It can be configured through almost any web browser without the need for special software. This router makes it possible to stay connected, even when conventional broadband services are unavailable. D-Link DWR-9 User Manual Section 2 - Installation Wireless Installation Considerations The DWR-9 can be accessed using a wireless connection from anywhere within the operating range of your wireless network. Keep in mind that the quantity, thickness, and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through may limit the range of the wireless signal. Ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or office. The key to maximizing the wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines: 1. Minimize the number of walls and ceilings between the D-Link router and other network devices. Each wall or ceiling can reduce your adapterâs range from 3 to 90 feet (1 to 30 meters). 2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (0.5 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. Try to position access points, wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through open doorways and drywall. Materials such as glass, metal, brick, insulation, concrete, and water can affect wireless performance. Large objects such as fish tanks, mirrors, file cabinets, metal doors, and aluminum studs may also have a negative effect on range. 4. If you are using 2.4 GHz cordless phones, make sure that the 2.4 GHz phone base is as far away from your wireless device as possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone is not in use. In some cases, cordless phones, X-10 wireless devices, and electronic equipment such as ceiling fans, fluorescent lights, and home security systems may dramatically degrade wireless connectivity.

D-Link DWR-9 User Manual 78 Section 6 - Troubleshooting Troubleshooting This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and operation of the DWR-9. Read the following descriptions if you are having problems. The examples below are illustrated in WindowsÂŽ XP. If you have a different operating system, the screenshots on your computer will look similar to these examples. 1. Why canât I access the web-based configuration 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 ExplorerÂŽ 7 or higher Mozilla Firefox 3.5 or higher Google⢠Chrome 8 or higher Apple Safari 4 or 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 different cable, or connect to a different port on the device if possible. If the computer is turned off, the link light may not be on. ⢠Disable any Internet security software running on the computer. Software firewalls such as ZoneAlarm, BlackICE, Sygate, Norton Personal Firewall, and WindowsÂŽ XP firewall may block access to the configuration pages. Check the help files included with your firewall software for more information on disabling or configuring it. D-Link DWR-9 User Manual 79 Section 6 - Troubleshooting ⢠Configure 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 configuration, unplug the power to the router for 10 seconds and plug back in. Wait about 30 seconds and try accessing the configuration. If you have multiple computers, try connecting using a different computer. 2. What can I do if I forgot my password? If you forgot your password, you must reset your router. 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, leave the password box empty. D-Link DWR-9 User Manual 80 Section 6 - Troubleshooting 3. Why canât 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 find the proper MTU Size, youâll have to do a special ping of the destination youâre trying to go to. A destination could be another computer, or a URL. ⢠Click on Start and then click Run. ⢠WindowsÂŽ 95, 98, and Me users type in command (WindowsÂŽ NT, 2000, XP, VistaÂŽ, and 7 users type in cmd) and press Enter (or click OK). ⢠Once the window opens, youâll need to do a special ping. Use the following syntax: ping [url] [-f] [-l] [MTU value] Example: ping yahoo.com -f -l 1472 D-Link DWR-9 User Manual 81 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 weâre working with (1452+28=1480). Once you find your MTU, you can now configure your router with the proper MTU size. To change the MTU rate on your router follow the steps below: ⢠Navigate to the Internet configuration page (see Internet on page 8 for details). ⢠To change the MTU, enter the number in the MTU field and click Apply to save your settings. ⢠Test your email. If changing the MTU does not resolve the problem, continue changing the MTU in increments of ten. D-Link DWR-9 User Manual 82 Appendix A - Wireless Basics 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 office environments, and public areas such as airports, coffee shops and universities. Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are helping people work, and communicate more efficiently. Increased mobility and the absence of cabling and other fixed infrastructure have proven to be beneficial 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. D-Link DWR-9 User Manual 83 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 office 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 afford. D-Link has all the products you need to build your network. How does wireless work? Wireless works similarly to how cordless phones work, through radio signals that 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 different types of wireless networksl: 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 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, university and high school campuses, airports, golf courses, and many other outdoor venues. D-Link DWR-9 User Manual 84 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 doesnât use nearly as much power. This 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, office, business, D-Link has a wireless solution for it. Home Uses/Benefits ⢠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 Office and Home Office Uses/Benefits ⢠Stay on top of everything at home as you would at office ⢠Remotely access your office network from home ⢠Share Internet connection and printer with multiple computers ⢠No need to dedicate office space D-Link DWR-9User Manual 85 Appendix A - Wireless Basics Where is wireless used? Wireless technology is expanding everywhere, not just at home or office. 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 the Internet from remote locations like: airports, hotels, coffee shops, libraries restaurants, and convention centers. Wireless network is easy to setup, but if youâre installing it for the first 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. 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 significantly reduce any interference that the appliances might cause since they operate on same frequency. D-Link DWR-9 User Manual 86 Appendix A - Wireless Basics Security Donât let your 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 the product manual for detail information on how to set it up. Wireless Modes There are basically two modes of networking: ⢠Infrastructure â All wireless clients will connect to an access point or wireless router. ⢠Ad hoc â Directly connecting to another computer for peer-to-peer communication using wireless network adapters on each computer, such as two or more DWR-9 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. D-Link DWR-9 User Manual 87 Appendix B - Networking Basics Networking Basics Check your IP address After you install your new D-Link adapter, by default, the TCP/IP settings should be set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server (i.e. wireless router) automatically. To verify your IP address, please follow the steps below. Click on Start > Run. In the run box type cmd and click OK. (WindowsÂŽ 7/VistaÂŽ users type cmd in the Start Search box.) At the prompt, type ipconfig and press Enter. This will display the IP address, subnet mask, and the default gateway of your adapter. If the address is 0.0.0.0, check your adapter installation, security settings, and the settings on your router. Some firewall software programs may block a DHCP request on newly installed adapters. D-Link DWR-9 User Manual 88 Appendix B - Networking Basics Statically Assign an IP address If you are not using a DHCP capable gateway/router, or you need to assign a static IP address, please follow the steps below: Step 1 WindowsÂŽ 7 Click on Start > Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center. Windows VistaÂŽ - Click on Start > Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center > Manage Network Connections. WindowsÂŽ XP Click on Start > Control Panel > Network Connections. WindowsÂŽ 2000 - From the desktop, right-click My Network Places > Properties. Step 2 Right-click on the Local Area Connection which represents your network adapter and select Properties. Step 3 Highlight Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click Properties. Step 4 Click Use the following IP address and enter an IP address that is on the same subnet as your network or the LAN IP address on your router. Example: If the router´s LAN IP address is 192.168.0.1, make your IP address 192.168.1.X where X is a number between 2 and 99. Make sure that the number you choose is not in use on the network. Set the Default Gateway the same as the LAN IP address of your router (I.E. 192.168.0.1). Set Primary DNS the same as the LAN IP address of your router (192.168.0.1). The Alternate DNS is not needed or you may enter a DNS server from your ISP. Step 5 Click OK twice to save your settings. D-Link DWR-9 User Manual 89 Appendix B - Networking Basics Wireless Security This section will show you the different levels of security you can use to protect your data from intruders. The DWR-9 offers the following types of security: ⢠WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) ⢠WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) ⢠WPA2-PSK (Pre-Shared Key) ⢠WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key) What is WPA? WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access), is a Wi-Fi standard that was designed to improve the security features of WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy). The 2 major improvements over WEP: ⢠Improved data encryption through the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP). TKIP scrambles the keys using a hashing algorithm and by adding an integrity-checking feature, ensures that the keys havenât been tampered with. WPA2 is based on 802.11i and uses Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) instead of TKIP. ⢠User authentication, which is generally missing in WEP, through the extensible authentication protocol (EAP). WEP regulates access to a wireless network based on a computerâs hardware-specific MAC address, which is relatively simple to be sniffed out and stolen. EAP is built on a more secure public-key encryption system to ensure that only authorized network users can access the network. WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK uses a passphrase or key to authenticate your wireless connection. The key is an alpha-numeric password between 8 and 63 characters long. The password can include symbols (!?*&_) and spaces. This key must be the exact same key entered on your wireless router or access point. WPA/WPA2 incorporates user authentication through the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). EAP is built on a more secure public key encryption system to ensure that only authorized network users can access the network.
