Introduction
Features
Easily Extend Your Existing Network
The DAP-1365 N300 Wi-Fi Range Extender with Power Passthrough lets you easily extend a secure wireless network with a press
of a button. Connect the DAP-1365 to a router via Wi-Fi or Ethernet and share your high-speed Internet access in more places
throughout your home or small oce. Additionally, the DAP-1365 provides a passthrough power socket to ensure that your
electrical outlet remains available.
High-speed Wireless Performance With Wireless 802.11n Technology
Thanks to the latest Wireless N technology, the DAP-1365 provides a wireless connection at up to 300 Mbps* with other 802.11n
wireless devices. This feature lets you participate in real-time activities online, such as video streaming, online gaming, and real-time
audio with smooth performance.
Simple Setup
All it takes is a press of a button to connect compatible WPS devices to the DAP-1365. Its easy-to-use web interface lets you quickly
and easily connect the DAP-1365 to an uplink router, congure the extended wireless network, and manage the administrative
settings. The setup wizard will even guide you through the setup process, getting your extended wireless network up and running
in no time. Alternatively, connect an Ethernet cable to your existing network infrastructure to quickly and easily create a wireless
network.
Compatibility
The DAP-1365 is fully compatible with 802.11n, and it is also backwards compatible with IEEE 802.11g/b wireless devices, so you can
use your existing devices without sacricing performance.
LatestWireless Network Security and Encryption
The DAP-1365 supports wireless security features to prevent unauthorized access from the wireless network. Support for WPA/
WPA2 standards ensure that you’ll be able to use the best possible encryption methods with your compatible wireless devices.
* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from standard IEEE specications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume
of network trac, building materials and construction, and network overhead may lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental conditions will adversely aect wireless
signal range.

Section 1 - Product Overview
What is a Wireless Extender?
The DAP-1365 acts as a repeater to extend the range of an existing wireless network to provide a better signal for parts of your
home or oce that may have poor or no reception. Your existing wireless signal will be re-broadcast by the DAP-1365, allowing
you to reach the farthest corners of your home or oce.The extended network can simply use the same network credentials as the
existing network, or you can specify a dierent network name and password, giving you the exibility to control network access.
You may also use the DAP-1365 as a wireless access point by connecting an Ethernet cable.
