Click Start (in the lower left corner of the screen). Right-click on My Computer. Select Properties and click.
Select the Computer Name Tab in the System Properties window.
You may enter a Computer Description if you wish; this field is optional.
To rename the computer and join a domain, Click Change. 26 Networking Basics (continued) Naming your Computer
In this window, enter the Computer name.
Select Workgroup and enter the name of the Workgroup. All computers on your network must have the same Workgroup name.
Click OK. Checking the IP Address in Windows XP The wireless adapter-equipped computers in your network must be in the same IP Address range (see Getting Started in this manual for a definition of IP Address Range.) To check on the IP Address of the adapter, please do the following:
Right-click on the Local Area Connection icon in the task bar.
Click on Status. 27 Networking Basics (continued) Checking the IP Address in Windows XP This window will appear.
Click the Support tab.
Click Close. Assigning a Static IP Address in Windows XP/2000 Note: Residential Gateways/Broadband Routers will automatically assign IP Addresses to the computers on the network, using DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) technology. If you are using a DHCP-capable Gateway/Router you will not need to assign Static IP Addresses. If you are not using a DHCP capable Gateway/Router, or you need to assign a Static IP Address, please follow these instructions:
Go to Start.
Double-click on Control Panel. 28 Networking Basics (continued) Assigning a Static IP Address in Windows XP/2000
Double-click on Network Connections.
Right-click on Local Area Connections.
Double-click on Properties. 29 Networking Basics (continued) Assigning a Static IP Address in Windows XP/2000
Click on Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP).
Click Properties.
In the window below, select Use the following IP address. Input your IP address and subnet mask. (The IP addresses on your network must be within the same range. For example, if one computer has an IP address of 192.168.0.2, the other computers should have IP addresses that are sequential, like 192.168.0.3 and 192.168.0.4. The subnet mask must be the same for all the computers on the network.) IP Address:
e.g., 192.168.0.2 Subnet Mask:
255.255.255.0 Default Gateway:
Enter the LAN IP address of the wireless router. (D-Link wireless routers have a LAN IP address of 192.168.0.1)
Select Use the following DNS server address. Enter the LAN IP address of the wireless router. (D-Link wireless routers have a LAN IP address of 192.168.0.1)
Click OK. You have completed the assignment of a static IP address. (You do not need to assign a static IP address if you have a DHCP-capable router.) 30 Networking Basics (continued) Checking the Wireless Connection by Pinging in Windows XP/2000
Go to Start > Run >
type cmd. A window similar to this one will appear. Type ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where xxx is the IP address of the wireless router or access point. A good wireless connection will show four replies from the wireless router or access point, as shown. Checking the Wireless Connection by Pinging in Windows Me /98SE
Go to Start > Run
> type command. A window similar to this will appear. Type ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx where xxx is the IP address of the wireless router or access point. A good wireless connection will show four replies from the wireless router or access point, as shown. 31 Troubleshooting This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and operation of the DWL-G700AP. We cover various aspects of the network including network adapters. (The examples below are illustrated in Windows XP. If you have another operating system, these solutions will still apply, although the appearance on your computer screen may differ.) Note: It is recommended that you use an Ethernet connection to configure the DWL-G700AP Access Point. 1. The computer used to configure the DWL-G700AP cannot access the configuration menu. Check that the Ethernet LED on the DWL-G700AP is ON. If the LED is not ON, check that the cable for the Ethernet connection is securely inserted. Check that the Ethernet adapter is working properly. Please see item 3
(Check that the drivers for the network adapters are installed properly) in this Troubleshooting section to check that the drivers are loaded properly. Check that the IP address is in the same range and subnet as the DWL-G700AP. Please see Checking the IP Address in Windows XP in the Networking Basics section of this manual. Note: The IP address of the DWL-G700AP is 192.168.0.50. All the computers on the network must have a unique IP address in the same range, e.g., 192.168.0.x. Any computers that have identical IP addresses will not be visible on the network. They must all have the same subnet mask, e.g., 255.255.255.0 Do a Ping test to make sure that the DWL-G700AP is responding. Go to Start>Run>Type Command>Type ping 192.168.0.50. A successful ping will show four replies. 32 Troubleshooting (continued) 2. The wireless client cannot access the Internet in the Infrastructure mode. Make sure the wireless client is associated and joined with the correct access point (DWL-G700AP). To check this connection: Right-click on the Local Area Connection icon in the taskbar> select View Available Wireless Networks. The Connect to Wireless Network screen will appear. Please make sure you have selected the correct available network, as shown in the illustrations below. Note: Screen shots were taken using Windows XP. Your screens may differ. Check that the IP address assigned to the wireless adapter is within the same IP address range as the access point and gateway. Since the DWL-700AP has an IP address of 192.168.0.50, wireless adapters must have an IP address in the same range, e.g., 192.168.0.x. Each device must have a unique IP address;
no two devices may have the same IP address. The subnet mask must be the same for all the computers on the network. To check the IP address assigned to the wireless adapter, double-click on the Local Area Connection icon in the taskbar > select the Support tab and the IP address will be displayed.
(Please refer to Checking the IP Address in the Networking Basics section of this manual.) If it is necessary to assign a static IP address to the wireless adapter, please refer to the appropriate section in Networking Basics. If you are entering a DNS Server address you must also enter the Default Gateway Address. (Remember that if you have a DHCP-capable router, you will not need to assign a static IP address. See Networking Basics: Assigning a Static IP Address.) 33 Troubleshooting (continued) 3. Check that the drivers for the network adapters are installed properly. You may be using different network adapters than those illustrated here, but this procedure will remain the same, regardless of the type of network adapters you are using. Go to Start Right-click on My Computer Click Properties Select the Hardware Tab Click Device Manager 34 Troubleshooting (continued) Double-click on Network Adapters Right-click on D-Link Air DWL-650 Wireless Cardbus Adapter
(or whatever network adapter you are using) Select Properties to check that the drivers are installed properly Look under Device Status to check that the device is working properly.
