It’s best to use the same computer that is connected to your router for
configuring the DVG-G1402S Router. The DVG-G1402S acts as a DHCP
server and will assign all the necessary IP address information on your
network. See the Quick Installation Guide or the Manual on the CD-ROM
for setting each network adapter to automatically obtain an IP address.
If any of the above items are missing, please contact your reseller.

DVG-G1402S Install GuideWireless Security
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a method of encrypting data for wireless
communication intended to provide the same level of privacy as a wired network.
To gain access to a WEP network, you must know the key. The key is a string of
characters that you create. When using WEP, you must determine the level of
encryption. The type of encryption determines the key length. 128-bit encryption
requires a longer key than 64-bit encryption. Keys are defined by entering in
a string in HEX (hexadecimal - using characters 0-9, A-F) or ASCII (American
Standard Code for Information Interchange – alphanumeric characters) format.
ASCII format is provided so you can enter a string that is easier to remember.
The ASCII string is converted to HEX for use over the network. Four keys can
be defined so that you can change keys easily.
Example:
64-bit hexadecimal keys are exactly 10 characters in length.
(12345678FA is a valid string of 10 characters for 64-bit encryption)
128-bit hexadecimal keys are exactly 26 characters in length.
(456FBCDF123400122225271730 is a valid string of 26 characters for
128-bit encryption)
64-bit ASCII keys are exactly 5 characters in length
(DMODE is a valid string of 5 characters for 64-bit encryption)
128-bit ASCII keys are exactly 13 characters in length
(2002HALOSWIN1 is a valid string of 13 characters for 128-bit encryption)
WPA-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access - Pre-Shared Key) is a Wi-Fi standard that
was designed to improve upon the security features of WEP (Wired Equivalent
Privacy).
WPA has 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 haven’t been tampered with.
The key or passphrase is an alpha-numeric password between 8 and 63
characters long. The passphrase can include symbols (!?*&_) and spaces. Make
sure you enter this key exactly the same on your wireless clients.

DVG-G1402S Install Guide Wireless Installation Considerations
The D-Link DVG-G1402S lets you access your network, using a wireless
connection, from virtually anywhere within its operating range. 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:
Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical
devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
4
Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the DVG-G1402S and other
network devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your router’s
range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters). Position your devices so that the number
of walls or ceilings is minimized.
1
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.
2
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.
3
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.

DVG-G1402S Install GuideVoIP Basics
Making and Receiving Calls
Placing a call is exactly the same as with any other regular phone. Just pick up
the handset and dial the regular telephone number. It’s that simple. Receiving
calls also works the same. The phone will ring just like a regular phone. With
VoIP, just pick up the phone and start talking!
In more technical terms, your D-Link VoIP Router converts your analog signal to
digital. The digital signal is sent through your modem and across the Internet.
When someone calls you, they dial your regular telephone number. Behind the
scenes, your number looks similar to an e-mail address. This number instructs
the call to travel over the Internet to the D-Link VoIP Router, your phone rings,
and all you have to do is pick up and answer it.
How does it work?
VoIP technology converts your voice (or analog) into data (or digital signal)
allowing you to place and receive calls over your broadband connection. Simply
plug a D-Link Broadband VoIP Router in to your Cable or DSL Modem, and
plug a standard household telephone into it. You can then place and receive
calls over this phone and also have additional control functions available to you
through a Web browser.
You must subscribe to a VoIP phone service plan and have a high-speed Internet
connection. You cannot use the phone unless you have an account and are provisioned
by the provider. D-Link Systems, Inc. is not a Telephone Service Provider or VoIP Phone
Service Provider.
