Installation Considerations
D-Link wireless devices allow 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 D-Link 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 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. Building Materials make a difference. A solid metal door or aluminum
studs may have a negative effect on 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.
4. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical
devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
5. 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.

6D-Link DWL-3150 Install Guide
Connect a standard Ethernet cable from the DWL-3150 to an Ethernet
port on the computer that will be used to configure the DWL-3150.
You must assign your computer a static IP address within the same
range as the IP address of the DWL-3150. The DWL-3150’s default
IP address is 192.168.0.30 with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0.
If your network is using another network (I.E. 192.168.1.xxx), then
configure only 1 computer using the steps below.
Step 1
Windows®XP - Click on Start > Control Panel > Network
Connections.
Windows®2000 - From the desktop, right-click My Network Places
> Properties.
Step 2
Right-click on the Local Area Connection which represents your
D-Link 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 of
192.168.0.10 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. Do not enter a
gateway or DNS server address.
Step 5
Click OK twice to save your settings.
You will now be able to connect to the DWL-3150 to configure it. Once
configured, you may change your computer’s IP settings back.
