Wire\bess.Persona\b.Area.Network.(WPAN)
B\fuetooth is the industry standard wire\fess techno\fo\by used for WPAN. B\fuetooth devices in WPAN operate in a ran\be up to 
30 feet away.
Compared to WLAN the speed and wire\fess operation ran\be are both \fess than WLAN, but in return it doesn’t use near\fy as 
much power which makes it idea\f for persona\f devices, such as mobi\fe phones, PDAs, headphones, \faptops, speakers, and other 
devices that operate on batteries.
Who.uses.wire\bess?.
  
Wire\fess techno\fo\by as become so popu\far in recent years that a\fmost everyone is usin\b it, whether it’s for home, office, business, 
D-Link has a wire\fess so\fution for it.
Home
  • Gives everyone at home broadband access
  • Surf the web, check emai\f, instant messa\be, etc.
  • Gets rid of the cab\fes around the house
  • Simp\fe and easy t\uo use
 
Sma\b\b.\fffice.and.Home.\fffice
  • Stay on top of everythin\b at home as you wou\fd at office
  • Remote\fy access your office network from home
  • Share Internet connection and printer with mu\ftip\fe computers
  • No need to dedicate office space

Where.is.wire\bess.used?.
  
Wire\fess techno\fo\by is expandin\b everywhere not just at home or office. Peop\fe \fike the freedom of mobi\fity and it’s becomin\b 
so popu\far that more and more pub\fic faci\fities now provide wire\fess access to attract peop\fe. The wire\fess connection in pub\fic 
p\faces is usua\f\fy ca\f\fed \u“hotspots”.
Usin\b a D-Link Cardbus Adapter with your \faptop, you can access the hotspot to connect to Internet from remote \focations 
\fike: Airports, Hote\fs, Coffee Shops, Libraries, Restaurants, and Convention Centers.
Wire\fess network is easy to setup, but if you’re insta\f\fin\b it for the first time it cou\fd be quite a task not knowin\b where to start. 
That’s why we’ve put to\bether a few setup steps and tips to he\fp you throu\bh the process of settin\b up a \uwire\fess network.
Tips
Here are a few thin\bs to keep in mind, when you insta\f\f a wire\fess network.
Centra\bize.your.router.or.Access.Point
  
Make  sure  you  p\face  the  router/access  point  in  a  centra\fized  \focation  within  your  network  for  the  best  performance. Try  to 
p\face the router/access point as hi\bh as possib\fe in the room, so the si\bna\f \bets dispersed throu\bhout your home. If you have 
a two-story home, you may need a repeater to boost the si\bna\f to extend the ran\be.
E\biminate.Interference 
  
P\face home app\fiances such as cord\fess te\fephones, microwaves, and te\fevisions as far away as possib\fe from the router/access 
point. This wou\fd si\bnificant\fy reduce any interference that the app\fiances mi\bht cause since they operate on same frequency.
Security

Appendix A - Wire\fess Basics
  
Don’t \fet you next-door nei\bhbors or intruders connect to your wire\fess network. Secure your wire\fess network by turnin\b on 
the WPA or WEP security feature on the router. Refer to product manua\f for detai\f information on how to set it up.
 
 
     
There are basica\f\fy two modes of networkin\b: 
• Infrastructure – A\f\f wire\fess c\fients wi\f\f connect to an access point or wire\fess router.
•  Ad-Hoc – Direct\fy connectin\b to another computer, for peer-to-peer communication, usin\b wire\fess network 
adapters on each computer, such as two or more DIR-850L wire\fess network Cardbus adapters.
An Infrastructure network contains an Access Point or wire\fess router. A\f\f the wire\fess devices, or c\fients, wi\f\f connect to the 
wire\fess router or access point. 
An Ad-Hoc network contains on\fy c\fients, such as \faptops with wire\fess cardbus adapters. A\f\f the adapters must be in Ad-Hoc 
mode to communicate.

Networking \basics
\fheck your IP address
After you insta\f\f your new D-Link adapter, by defau\ft, the TCP/IP settin\bs shou\fd be set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP 
server (i.e. wire\fess router) automatica\f\fy. To verify your IP address, p\fease fo\f\fow the steps be\fow.
C\fick on Start > Run. In the run box type cmd and c\fick \fK. (Windows® 7/Vista® users type cmd in the Start.Search box.)
At the prompt, type ipconfig and press Enter.
This wi\f\f disp\fay the IP address, subnet mask, and the 
defau\ft \bateway of your adapter.
If the address is 0.0.0.0, check your adapter insta\f\fation, 
security  settin\bs,  and  the  settin\bs  on  your  router. 
Some firewa\f\f software pro\brams may b\fock a DHCP 
request on new\fy insta\u\f\fed adapters.

Statically Assign an IP address
If you are not usin\b a DHCP c\uapab\fe \bateway/router, or you need to assi\bn a static IP address, p\fease fo\f\fow the steps be\fow:
Step.1
Windows® 7 -  C\fick on Start > Contro\b.Pane\b > Network.and.Internet > Network.and.Sharing.Center.
Windows Vista® -  C\fick on Start > Contro\b .Pane\b  > Network .and .Internet  > Network .and .Sharing .Center  > Manage .Network
. . . Connections.
Windows® XP -  C\fick on Start > Contro\b.Pane\b > Network.Connections.
Windows® 2000 -  From the desktop, ri\bht-c\fick My.Network.P\baces > Properties.
Step.2
Ri\bht-c\fick on the Loca\b.Area.Connection which represents your network adapter and se\fect Properties.
Step.3
Hi\bh\fi\bht Internet.Protoco\b.(TCP/IP) and c\fick Properties.
Step.4
C\fick  Use.the.fo\b\bowing. IP.address and enter an IP address that is on the same subnet 
as your network or the LAN IP add\uress on your router. 
Examp\fe: If the router´s LAN IP address is 192.168.0.1, make your IP address 192.168.0.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 Defau\ft 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 
Secondary DNS is not needed\u or you may enter a DNS server from your ISP.
Step.5
C\fick \fK twice to save your settin\bs.
