Wireless Security
Wireless security is a key concern for any wireless network installed. Unlike any other networking method wireless networks will broadcast it’s presence for
anyone to connect to it. Today, wireless security has advanced to a level where it is virtually impenetrable.
There are mainly two forms of wireless encryption and they are called Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). WEP was the first
security method developed. It is a low level encryption but better than now encryption. WPA is the newest encryption standard and with the advanced WPA2
standard wireless networks have finally reach a point where the security is strong enough to give users the peace of mind when installing wireless networks.
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
WEP provides two variations called Open System and Shared Key.
Open System will send a request to the access point and if the key used matches the one configured on the access point, the access point will return a success
message back to the wireless client. If the key does not match the one configured on the access point, the access point will deny the connection request from
the wireless client.
Shared Key will send a request to the access point and if the key used matches the one configured on the access point, the access point will send a challenge
to the client. The client will then again send a confirmation of the same key back to the access point where the access point will either return a successful or a
denial packet back to the wireless client.
Encryption: Use the radio button to disable or enable

encryption.
Key Type*: Select HEX or ASCII.
Key Size: Select 64 Bits or 128 Bits.
Key Index (1-4): Select the 1st through the 4th key to be the active
key.
Key: Input up to four keys for encryption. You will select

one of these keys in the Key Index drop-down
menu.
**Hexadecimal (HEX) digits consist of the numbers 0-9 and the letters A-F.
*ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a code that represents English letters using
numbers ranging from 0-127.

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA / WPA2)

WPA was created by the Wi-Fi Alliance to address the limitations and weaknesses found in WEP. This protocol is mainly based on the 802.11i
standard. There are also two variations found in WPA called WPA-Personal (PSK) and WPA-Enterprise (EAP).
WPA-EAP requires the user to install a Radius Server on the network for authentication.
WPA-Personal does not require the user to install a Radius Server on the network.
Comparing WPA-PSK with WPA-EAP, WPA-PSK is seen as a weaker authentication but comparing WPA-PSK to WEP, WPA-PSK is far more secure
than WEP. WPA-EAP is the highest level of wireless security a user can use for wireless today.
WPA2 is an upgrade of WPA. WPA2 yet again solves some possible security issues found in WPA. WPA2 has two variations called WPA2-Personal
(PSK) and WPA2-Enterprise (EAP) which is the same as found with WPA.
WPA Mode: When WPA-Personal is selected for Authentication type,
you must also select a WPA mode from the drop-down
menu: AUTO (WPA or WPA2), WPA2 Only, or WPA Only.
WPA and WPA2 use different algorithms. AUTO (WPA or
WPA2) allows you to use both WPA and WPA2.
Cipher Type: When you select WPA-Personal, you must also select AUTO,
AES, or TKIP from the pull down menu.
Group Key Update: Select the interval during which the group key will be valid.
The default value of 1800 is recommended.
Pass Phrase: When you select WPA-Personal, please enter a Pass Phrase
in the corresponding field.

WPA Mode: When WPA-Enterprise is selected, you must also

select a WPA mode from the drop-down menu:
AUTO (WPA or WPA2), WPA2 Only, or WPA Only.
WPA and WPA2 use different algorithms. AUTO
(WPA or WPA2) allows you to use both WPA and
WPA2.
Cipher Type: When WPA-Enterprise is selected, you must also

select a cipher type from the drop-down menu:
Auto, AES, or TKIP.
Group Key Update Interval: Select the interval during which the group key
will be valid. 1800 is the recommended value as
a lower interval may reduce data transfer rates.
Network Access Protection: Enable or disable Microsoft Network Access

Protection.
RADIUS Server: Enter the IP address of the RADIUS server.
RADIUS Port: Enter the RADIUS port.
RADIUS Secret: Enter the RADIUS secret.
Account Server: Enter the IP address of the Account Server
Account Port: Enter the Account port

Advanced Settings
In the Advanced Settings Section the user can configure advanced settings concerning Performance, Multiple SSID, VLAN, Security, Quality of Service, AP
Array, Web Redirection, DHCP Server, Filters and Scheduling. The following pages will explain settings found in the Advanced Settings section in more detail.

Performance
On the Performance Settings page the users can configure more advanced settings concerning the wireless signal and hosting.
Wireless Band: Select 2.4Ghz in default.
Wireless: Use the drop-down menu to turn the wireless function On or Off.
Wireless Mode: The different combination of clients that can be supported include
Mixed 802.11n, 802.11g and 802.11b, Mixed 802.11g and 802.11b and
802.11n Only in the 2.4 GHz band Please note that when backwards
compatibility is enabled for legacy (802.11g/b) clients, degradation
of 802.11n wireless performance is expected.
Indicate the base transfer rate of wireless adapters on the wireless

LAN. The AP will adjust the base transfer rate depending on the base
Data Rate*: rate of the connected device. If there are obstacles or interference, the
AP will step down the rate. This option is enabled in Mixed 802.11g
and 802.11b mode (for 2.4 GHz). The choices available are Best (Up
to 54), 54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9, 6, 11, 5.5, 2 or 1 for 2.4 GHz.
Beacons are packets sent by an access point to synchronize a

wireless network. Specify a value in milliseconds. The default (100)
is recommended. Setting a higher beacon interval can help to save
the power of wireless clients, while setting a lower one can help a
Beacon Interval (25-500): wireless client connect to an access point faster.
DTM Interval (1-15): Select a Delivery Traffic Indication Message setting between 1 and 15. 1 is the default setting. DTIM is a countdown informing
clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages.

Transmit Power: This setting determines the power level of the wireless transmission. Transmitting power can be adjusted to eliminate overlapping
of wireless area coverage between two access points where interference is a major concern. For example, if wireless coverage is
intended for half of the area, then select 50% as the option. Use the drop-down menu to select 100%, 50%, 25%, or 12.5%.
WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia): WMM stands for Wi-Fi Multimedia. Enabling this feature will improve the user experience for audio and video applications over

Appendix A - Wireless Basics
Knowledge Base
Wireless Basics
D-Link wireless products are based on industry standards to provide high-speed wireless connectivity that is easy to use within your home,
business or public access wireless networks. D-Link wireless products provides you with access to the data you want, whenever and wherever
you want it. Enjoy the freedom that wireless networking can bring to you.
WLAN use is not only increasing in both home and office environments, but in public areas as well, such as airports, coffee shops and universities.
Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are allowing people to work and communicate more efficiently. Increased mobility and the absence
of cabling and other types of fixed infrastructure have proven to be beneficial to many users.
Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems support the same protocols as Ethernet adapter cards, allowing wireless users to use
the same applications as those used on a wired network.
People use WLAN technology for many different purposes:

• Mobility - productivity increases when people can have access to data in any location within the operating range of their WLAN.
Management decisions based on real-time information can significantly improve the efficiency of a worker.
• Low implementation costs - WLANs are easy to set up, manage, change and relocate. Networks that frequently change can benefit from
WLAN’s ease of implementation. WLANs can operate in locations where installation of wiring may be impractical.
• Installation and network expansion - by avoiding the complications of troublesome cables, a WLAN system can be fast and easy during
installation, especially since it can eliminate the need to pull cable through walls and ceilings. Wireless technology provides more versatility
by extending the network beyond the home or office.
• Inexpensive solution - wireless network devices are as competitively priced as conventional Ethernet network devices. The DAP-2330 saves
money by providing users with multi-functionality configurable in four different modes.
• Scalability - Configurations can be easily changed and range from Peer-to-Peer networks, suitable for a small number of users to larger
Infrastructure networks to accommodate hundreds or thousands of users, depending on the number of wireless devices deployed.

Appendix A - Wireless Basics
Wireless Installation Considerations

The D-Link Access Point 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 of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your
home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:
1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the access point and other network devices to a minimum. Each wall or ceiling can reduce
your adapter’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.
2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (.5 meters), at a
3. 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.
4. Building Materials make a difference. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative effect on the range. Try to position access
points, wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways. Materials and objects such as glass,
steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (fish tanks), mirrors, file cabinets, brick, and concrete will degrade your wireless signal.
5. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
6. If you are using 2.4GHz cordless phones or X-10 (wireless products such as ceiling fans, lights, and home security systems), your wireless
connection may degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4GHz phone base is as far away from your wireless devices as
possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone in not in use.

Section 6 - Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and operation of the DAP-2330. Read the following
descriptions if you are having problems. (The examples below are illustrated in Windows® XP. If you have a different operating system, the
screenshots on your computer will look similar to the following examples.)
Why can’t I access the web-based configuration utility?

When entering the IP address of the D-Link access point (192.168.0.50 for example), you are not connecting to a website on the Internet or 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:
• Internet Explorer 7.0 or higher, Chrome, Firefox, or 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 Zone Alarm, Black Ice, Sygate, Norton Personal Firewall, and
Windows® 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.
• 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 access point in the address bar. This should open the login
page for your the web management.
• If you still cannot access the configuration, unplug the power to the access point 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.
What can I do if I forgot my password?

If you forgot your password, you must reset your access point. Unfortunately, this process will change all your settings back to the factory defaults.
To reset the access point, locate the reset button (hole) on the rear panel of the unit. With the access point powered on, use a paperclip to hold the
button down for 10 seconds. Release the button and the access point will go through its reboot process. Wait about 30 seconds to access the access
point. The default IP address is 192.168.0.50. When logging in, the username is admin and leave the password box empty.

How to check your IP address?

After you install your network 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.
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.
If you are connecting to a wireless network at a hotspot (e.g. hotel, coffee shop, airport), please contact an employee or administrator to verify
their wireless network settings.

How to 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:
Windows® 2000: Click on Start > Settings > Control Panel > Network
Connections
Windows XP: Click on Start > Control Panel > Network Connections
Windows Vista®: Click on Start > Control Panel > Network and Internet >
Network and Sharing Center > Manage network connections
Step 2:
Right-click on the Local Area Connection which represents your network
adapter and select Properties.
Step 3:
Highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) 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 192.168.0.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 Default
Gateway the same as the LAN IP address of your router (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 or you may enter a DNS
server from your ISP.
Step 5:
Click OK twice to save your settings.
