Step 2: Enter your user name (admin) and your password (leave blank by default). Click OK.

Step 3: Click the Advanced tab and then click Grouping on the left side.

Step 4: Next to Load Balance, select Enabled from the drop-down box.

When you Enable Load Balance you allow several D-Link DWL-7100AP/DWL-7000AP access points to balance wireless network traffic and wireless clients among the access points with the same SSID. All the APs that share Load Balancing must have the same SSID. Assign each Access Point a different non-overlapping channel (e.g., 1, 6, 11).

Step 5: Next to Link Integrate, select Enable from the drop-down box.

When Link Integrate is Enabled, the wireless segment associated with the AP will be disconnected whenever the connection between the AP and the LAN is dropped.

Step 6: Click Apply and then click Continue to save your settings.

Step 1: Open your web browser and type the IP address of the access point in the address bar. The default IP address is 192.168.0.50. At the login, enter your username (admin) and password (default password is blank).

Step 2: Click on the Home tab and then click LAN.

Step 3: Select Dynamic (DHCP) from the drop-down list if you want the access point to receive an IP address automatically from a DHCP server or router, otherwise change the IP address manually (static).

We strongly suggest using a static IP address. The IP address is not used for networking, only for configuration. Make sure the IP address is within the same IP range as your network.

Step 4: Click the Apply button and click Continue to restart the access point.

Step 1: Open your web browser such as Internet Explorer. Enter the IP address of the D-Link access point (default is 192.168.0.50) and press Enter.

Step 2: Enter your username (admin) and your password (leave blank by default). Click OK.

Step 3: Click on the Tools tab at the top and then click Admin.

Step 4: Enter your new user name and then enter the old password (if any). Enter your new password and click Apply. After the access point restarts, you will be required to enter your new user name and password.

Follow these steps to configure your router’s Virtual Server settings:

**In this example, we are using the DI-624. The Virtual Server interface may differ depending on your router*.

Follow these steps to configure the Virtual Server settings of the D-Link DI-624:

Step 1: Open a web browser such as Internet Explorer and enter the IP address of your router (192.168.0.1). Enter username (admin) and your password (leave blank).

Step 2: Click on the Advanced tab and then the Virtual Server button on the left.

Step 3: Click Enabled.

Step 4: Enter a different name for each entry.

Step 5: Enter your camera’s local IP Address Private IP field.

Step 6: Select TCP for HTTP port and both (TCP and UDP) for RTSP port.

Step 7: If you are using the default camera port settings, enter 80 into the Public and Private Port section, click Apply.

Step 8: Scheduling should be set to Always so that the camera images can be accessed at any time.

Repeat the above steps adding the port 554 to both the Public and Private Port sections. A check mark appearing before the entry name will indicate that the ports are enabled.

Important: Some ISPs block access to port 80 and other commonly used Internet ports to conserve bandwidth. Check with your ISP so that you can open the appropriate ports accordingly. If your ISP does not pass traffic on port 80, you will need to change the port the camera uses from 80 to something else, such as 800. Not all routers are the same, so refer to your user manual for specific instructions on how to open ports.

Enter valid ports in the Virtual Server section of your router. Please make sure to check the box next to the D-Link camera name on the Virtual Server List to enable your settings.

Step 1: Click Start and select Run.

Step 2: In the Run command box, type cmd and click OK.

Step 3: In the command prompt, type ipconfig/release.

Step 4: After the IP addresses are released, type ipconfig/renew.

Step 5: Your adapter will send a request for a DHCP (automatically) obtained IP address, netmask, gateway, and DNS if auto-DNS is enabled.

If you are having problems obtaining an IP address using DHCP, you may want to try to static (manual) the IP address. Click here for assistance.

Note: Verify that you have a DHCP server on your D-Link network, such as a router. Most routers have a setting to disable or enable DHCP.

The Zero Configuration Utility built into Windows XP is different depending on if you have installed Service Pack 1.

Step 1: Right-click on the two computer monitor icons in the system tray, select View Available Wireless Networks.

Step 2: Highlight your wireless network which is the SSID of your wireless network (if you are connecting to a D-Link router it will be default), and click connect.

Step 3: If you do not see your D-Link wireless network in the available networks box click on the advanced button. Select add, type in the SSID of your router or access point, uncheck this computer is connected in and ad-hoc peer-to-peer network, and then click ok.

Step 1: Open your web browser and type the IP address of the D-Link wireless router in the address bar (default is 192.168.0.1). Press Enter.

Step 2: The default username is admin and the password is blank (nothing). Click OK.

Step 3: Click on the Home tab then click LAN to the left.

Step 4: Next to IP Address enter the new IP address. Next to Subnet Mask enter the correct subnet mask for the IP address entered. Enter a Local Domain Name if applicable.

Note: You will need to use this new IP address to log into the unit.

Step 5: Click Apply and then click Continue to save the settings.

The supplied installation disc leads you through the process of installing your drives, setting up an admin password and giving the NAS an address on your network. It also prompts you to set up a DDNS account using D-Link’s free DLinkDDNS.com service, which makes it easier to access your NAS remotely from outside your local network if your ISP only gives you a dynamic IP address. An optional step lets you configure the NAS to send alert and notification emails to a designated address. Finally, you’re prompted to format and configure the drives and map the location of the NAS’s share to a drive letter for your PC to access. Finally, the application offers to set up a range of add-on packages for the NAS, including an audio streamer, photo centre and Squeeze Centre media streamer.

Its web interface lacks the polish of rivals such as Synology or QNap, having big chunky icons, dated styling and small text, but everything’s easy to find. There are three main sections, but one of those is a customisable Favourites tab that starts life empty. The Management button is the most immediately useful section of the interface, providing you with access to disk and volume management tools so that you can reformat the NAS’s hard disks and change your RAID settings. You can also re-run the NAS setup wizard, use the Account Management settings to create users and assign permissions, and configure local network and Dynamic DNS settings.

There’s also an Application Management screen and a separate tab for installed applications. These include services such as iTunes and UPnP media streaming, an integrated BitTorrent client, a basic web-accessible file server interface, an FTP server, and a management interface for backups to and from the device, including Apple Time Machine. The NAS also comes with Farstone’s Total Recovery Pro backup suite for Windows.
