6D-Link DIR-645 User ManualSection 2 - Hardware InstallationHardware InstallationBefore You BeginWireless Installation ConsiderationsThis section will walk you through the installation process. Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the router in an enclosed area such as a closet, cabinet, attic or garage.The router lets 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. Ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or office. The key to maximizing the wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the D-Link router and other network devices to a minimum. Each wall or ceiling can reduce your adapter’s range from 3 to 90 feet (1 to 30 meters.) Position your devices so that the number of walls and/or ceilings is minimized.2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (0.5 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. Try to position access points, wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through open doorways and drywall. Materials such as glass, metal, brick, insulation, concrete and water can affect wireless performance. Large objects such as fish tanks, mirrors, file cabinets, metal doors and aluminum studs may also have a negative effect on range.4. Keep your product at least 3 to 6 feet (1-2 meters) away from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.5. If you are using 2.4GHz cordless phones, make sure that the 2.4GHz phone base is as far away from your wireless device as possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone in not in use. In some cases, cordless phones, X-10 wireless devices, and electronic equipment such as ceiling fans, fluorescent lights, and home security systems may dramatically degrade wireless connectivity.• The router is designed for use with the Ethernet port on your broadband modem. If you were using the USB connection before using the router, you must turn off your modem and disconnect the USB cable. Connect an Ethernet cable to the WAN/Internet port on the router, and then turn the modem back on. In some cases, you may need to call your ISP to change your connection type (USB to Ethernet).• If you have DSL and are connecting via PPPoE, be sure to disable or uninstall any PPPoE software such as WinPoet, Broadjump, or Enternet 300 from your computer. Otherwise you will not be able to connect to the Internet.• When running the Setup Wizard from the D-Link CD, make sure your computer is connected to the Internet and is online, otherwise the wizard will not work. If you have disconnected any hardware, first re-connect your computer to the modem and make sure you are online.
7D-Link DIR-645 User ManualSection 2 - Hardware InstallationConnect to Cable/DSL/Satellite ModemConnect to Another RouterIf you are connecting the router to a Cable/DSL/Satellite Modem, please follow the steps below:1. Place the router in an open and central location. Do not plug the power adapter into the router.2. Turn the power off on your modem. If there is no on/off switch, unplug the modem’s power adapter. Shut down your computer.3. Unplug the Ethernet cable (that connects your computer to your modem) from your computer and place it into the WAN port on the router.4. Plug an Ethernet cable into one of the LAN ports on the router. Plug the other end into the Ethernet port on your computer.5. Turn on or plug in your modem. Wait for the modem to boot (about 30 seconds).6. Plug the power adapter into the router and connect to an outlet or power strip. Wait about 30 seconds for the router to boot up.7. Turn on your computer.8. Verify that the Power LED on the router are lit. If the Power LED does not light up, make sure your computer, modem, and router are powered, on and verify that the cables connected correctly.9. In a later section in this manual we’ll discuss the Web GUI configuration of the router in more detail..If you are connecting the D-Link router to another router to use as a wireless access point and/or switch, you will have to do the following before connecting the router to your network:• Disable UPnP™• Disable DHCP• Change the LAN IP address to an available address on your network. The LAN ports on the router cannot accept a DHCP address from another router.To connect to another router, please follow the steps below:1. Plug the power into the router. Connect a computer to the router (LAN port) using an Ethernet cable. Make sure your IP address on the computer is 192.168.0.xxx (where xxx is between 2 and 254). If you need to change the settings, write down your existing settings before making any changes. In most cases, your computer should be set to receive an IP address automatically, in which case you will not have to do anything to your computer.2. Open a web browser, type http://192.168.0.1 into the address bar, and press Enter. When the login window appears, set the username to ADMIN and leave the password box empty. Click Login to continue.3. Click on Advanced and then click Advanced Network. Uncheck the Enable UPnP checkbox. Click Save Settings to continue.4. Click Setup and then click Network Settings.

29D-Link DIR-645 User ManualSection 3 - Software ConfigurationBy default the wireless security of this router will be disabled. In this next option the user can enabled or disable wireless security for the frequency band 2.4GHz. There are two types of encryption that can be used. WEP or WPA/WPA2.Wireless Security Mode: WEPWired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is the most basic form of encryption that can be used for wireless networks. Even though it is known as a ‘weak’ security method, it is better than no security at all. Older wireless adapter sometimes only supports WEP encryption and thus we still find this encryption method used today.The following parameters will be available for configuration:WEP Key Length: Here the user can specify to either use a 64Bit or a 128Bit encrypted key.Authentication: Authentication is a process by which the router verifies the identity of a network device that is attempting to join the wireless network. There are two types authentication for this device when using WEP. Open System allows all wireless devices to communicate with the router before they are required to provide the encryption key needed to gain access to the network. Shared Key requires any wireless device attempting to communicate with the router to provide the encryption key needed to access the network before they are allowed to communicate with the router.WEP Key 1: Enter the WEP key used here. For 64-bit keys you must enter 10 hex digits into each key box. For 128-bit keys you must enter 26 hex digits into each key box. A hex digit is either a number from 0 to 9 or a letter from A to F. You may also enter any text string into a WEP key box, in which case it will be converted into a hexadecimal key using the ASCII values of the characters. A maximum of 5 text characters can be entered for 64-bit keys, and a maximum of 13 characters for 128-bit keys.

32D-Link DIR-645 User ManualSection 3 - Software ConfigurationNetwork SettingsOn this page the user can configure the internal network settings of the router and also able to configure the built-in DHCP server to assign IP addresses to computers on the network. The IP address that is configured here is the IP address that is used to access the Web-based management interface. If you change the IP address in this section, you may need to adjust your PC’s network settings to access the network again.The following parameters will be available for configuration:Router IP Address:Enter the IP address of the router. The default IP address is 192.168.0.1. If you change the IP address, once you click Apply, you will need to enter the new IP address in your browser to get back into the configuration utility.Default Subnet Mask:Enter the Subnet Mask.

(Optional).Enable DNS Relay:Uncheck the box to transfer the DNS server information from your ISP to your computers. If checked, your computers will use the router for a DNS server.DHCP Server SettingsDHCP stands for Dynamic Host Control Protocol. This device has a built-in DHCP server. The DHCP Server will automatically assign an IP address to the computers on the LAN/private network. Be sure to set your computers to be DHCP clients by setting their TCP/IP settings to “Obtain an IP Address Automatically.” When you turn your computers on, they will automatically load the proper TCP/IP settings provided by the router. The DHCP Server will automatically allocate an unused IP address from the IP address pool to the requesting computer. You must specify the starting and ending address of the IP address pool.
33D-Link DIR-645 User ManualSection 3 - Software ConfigurationThe following parameters will be available for configuration:Enable DHCP Server:Check this box to enable the DHCP server on your router. Uncheck to disable this function.DHCP IP Address Range:Enter the starting and ending IP addresses for the DHCP server’s IP assignment.DHCP Lease Time:The length of time for the IP address lease. Enter the Lease time in minutes.Always Broadcast:If all the computers on the LAN successfully obtain their IP addresses from the router’s DHCP server as expected, this option can remain disabled. However, if one of the computers on the LAN fails to obtain an IP address from the router’s DHCP server, it may have an old DHCP client that incorrectly turns off the broadcast flag of DHCP packets. Enabling this option will cause the router to always broadcast its responses to all clients, thereby working around the problem, at the cost of increased broadcast traffic on the LAN.NetBIOS announcement:Check this box to allow the DHCP Server to offer NetBIOS configuration settings to the LAN hosts. NetBIOS allow LANhosts to discover all other computers within the network, e.g. within Network Neighborhood.Learn NetBIOS from WAN:If NetBIOS announcement is switched on, it will cause WINS information to be learned from the WAN side, if available. Turn this setting off to configure manually.NetBIOS Scope: This is an advanced setting and is normally left blank. This allows the configuration of a NetBIOS ‘domain’ name under which network hosts operate. This setting has no effect if the ‘Learn NetBIOS information from WAN’ is activated.NetBIOS node type:This field indicates how network hosts are to perform NetBIOS name registration and discovery. H-Node, this indicates a Hybrid-State of operation. First WINS servers are tried, if any, followed by local network broadcast. This is generally the preferred mode if you have configured WINS servers. M-Node (default), this indicates a Mixed-Mode of operation. First Broadcast operation is performed to register hosts and discover other hosts, if broadcast operation fails, WINS servers are tried, if any. This mode favours broadcast operation which may be preferred if WINS servers are reachable by a slow network link and the majority of network services such as servers and printers are local to the LAN. P-Node, this indicates to use WINS servers ONLY. This setting is useful to force all NetBIOS operation to the configured WINS servers. You must have configured at least the primary WINS server IP to point to a working WINS server. B-Node, this indicates to use local network broadcast ONLY. This setting is useful where there are no WINS servers available, however, it is preferred you try M-Node operation first. This setting has no effect if the ‘Learn NetBIOS information from WAN’ is activated.
34D-Link DIR-645 User ManualSection 3 - Software ConfigurationPrimary WINS Server IP address:Configure the IP address of the preferred WINS server. WINS Servers store information regarding network hosts, allowing hosts to ‘register’ themselves as well as discover other available hosts, e.g. for use in Network Neighborhood. This setting has no effect if the ‘Learn NetBIOS information from WAN’ is activated.Secondary WINS Server IP address:Configure the IP address of the backup WINS server, if any. This setting has no effect if the ‘Learn NetBIOS information from WAN’ is activated.The following parameters will be available for configuration:Enable: Check this box to enable the reservation.Computer Name: Enter the computer name. Alternatively, select a computer that currently has a DHCP lease from the drop down menu and click << to automatically populate the Computer Name, IP Address, and MAC Address fields.IP Address: Enter the IP address you want to assign to the computer or device. This IP Address must be within the DHCP IP Address Range.MAC Address: Enter the MAC address of the computer or device.DHCP Reservations ListThis shows clients that you have specified to have reserved DHCP addresses. An entry can be changed by clicking the Edit icon, or deleted by clicking the Delete icon. When you click the Edit icon, the item is highlighted, and the ‘Edit DHCP Reservation’ section is activated for editing.Number of Dynamic DHCP ClientsIn this section you can see what LAN devices are currently leasing IP addresses.Add/Edit DHCP ReservationThis option lets you reserve IP addresses, and assign the same IP address to the network device with the specified MAC address any time it requests an IP address. This is almost the same as when a device has a static IP address except that the device must still request an IP address from the D-Link router. The D-Link router will provide the device the same IP address every time. DHCP Reservations are helpful for server computers on the local network that are hosting applications such as Web and FTP. Servers on your network should either use a static IP address or use this option.

101D-Link DIR-645 User ManualSection 4 - Knowledge BaseKnowledge BaseWireless BasicsWireless products are based on industry standards to provide easy-to-use and compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within your home, business or public access wireless networks. Strictly adhering to the IEEE standard, the wireless family of products will allow you to securely access the data you want, when and where you want it. You will be able to enjoy the freedom that wireless networking delivers.A wireless local area network (WLAN) is a cellular computer network that transmits and receives data with radio signals instead of wires. Wireless LANs are used increasingly in both home and office environments, and public areas such as airports, coffee shops and universities. Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are helping people to work and communicate more efficiently. Increased mobility and the absence of cabling and other fixed infrastructure have proven to be beneficial for many users.Wireless users can use the same applications they use on a wired network. Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems support the same protocols as Ethernet adapter cards.Under many circumstances, it may be desirable for mobile network devices to link to a conventional Ethernet LAN in order to use servers, printers or an Internet connection supplied through the wired LAN. A Wireless Router is a device used to provide this link.What is Wireless?Wireless or Wi-Fi technology is another way of connecting your computer to the network without using wires. Wi-Fi uses radio frequency to connect wirelessly, so you have the freedom to connect computers anywhere in your home or office network.How does Wireless work?Wireless works similar to how cordless phone work, through radio signals to transmit data from one point A to point B. But wireless technology has restrictions as to how you can access the network. You must be within the wireless network range area to be able to connect your computer. There are two different types of wireless networks Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), and Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN).Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)In a wireless local area network, a device called an Access Point (AP) connects computers to the network. The access point has a small antenna attached to it, which allows it to transmit data back and forth over radio signals. With an indoor access point as seen in the picture, the signal can travel up to 300 feet. With an outdoor access point the signal can reach out up to 30 miles to serve places like manufacturing plants, industrial locations, college and high school campuses, airports, golf courses, and many other outdoor venues.
102D-Link DIR-645 User ManualSection 4 - Knowledge BaseWireless Personal Area Network (WPAN)Bluetooth is the industry standard wireless technology used for WPAN. Bluetooth devices in WPAN operate in a range up to 30 feet away. Compared to WLAN the speed and wireless operation range are both less than WLAN, but in return it doesn’t use nearly as much power which makes it ideal for personal devices, such as mobile phones, PDAs, headphones, laptops, speakers, and other devices that operate on batteries.Who uses wireless?Wireless technology as become so popular in recent years that almost everyone is using it, whether it’s for home, office, business, we have a wireless solution for it.Home• Gives everyone at home broadband access• Surf the web, check email, instant message, etc.• Gets rid of the cables around the house• Simple and easy to useSmall Office and Home Office• Stay on top of everything at home as you would at office• Remotely access your office network from home• Share Internet connection and printer with multiple computers• No need to dedicate office spaceWhere is wireless used?Wireless technology is expanding everywhere not just at home or office. People like the freedom of mobility and it’s becoming so popular that more and more public facilities now provide wireless access to attract people. The wireless connection in public places is usually called “hotspots”. Using a Wireless Cardbus Adapter with your laptop, you can access the hotspot to connect to Internet from remote locations like: Airports, Hotels, Coffee Shops, Libraries, Restaurants, and Convention Centers. Wireless network is easy to setup, but if you’re installing it for the first time it could be quite a task not knowing where to start. That’s why we’ve put together a few setup steps and tips to help you through the process of setting up a wireless network.
103D-Link DIR-645 User ManualSection 4 - Knowledge BaseTipsHere are a few things to keep in mind, when you install a wireless network.Centralize your router or Access PointMake sure you place the router/access point in a centralized location within your network for the best performance. Try to place the router/access point as high as possible in the room, so the signal gets dispersed throughout your home. If you have a two-story home, you may need a repeater to boost the signal to extend the range.Eliminate InterferencePlace home appliances such as cordless telephones, microwaves, and televisions as far away as possible from the router/access point. This would significantly reduce any interference that the appliances might cause since they operate on same frequency.SecurityDon’t let you next-door neighbors or intruders connect to your wireless network. Secure your wireless network by turning on the WPA or WEP security feature on the router. Refer to product manual for detail information on how to set it up.Wireless ModesThere are basically two modes of networking:• Infrastructure – All wireless clients will connect to an access point or wireless router.• Ad-Hoc – Directly connecting to another computer, for peer-to-peer communication, using wireless network adapters on each computer, such as two or more wireless network Cardbus adapters.An Infrastructure network contains an Access Point or wireless router. All the wireless devices, or clients, will connect to the wireless router or access point.An Ad-Hoc network contains only clients, such as laptops with wireless Cardbus adapters. All the adapters must be in Ad-Hoc mode to communicate.
104D-Link DIR-645 User ManualSection 4 - Knowledge BaseWireless SecurityThis section will show you the different levels of security you can use to protect your data from intruders. The router offers wireless security options like WPA/WPA2 PSK/EAP.What is WPA?WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access), is a Wi-Fi standard that was designed to improve the security features of WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy).The 2 major improvements over WEP:• 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. WPA2 is based on 802.11i and uses Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) instead of TKIP.• User authentication, which is generally missing in WEP, through the extensible authentication protocol (EAP). WEP regulates access to a wireless network based on a computer’s hardware-specific MAC address, which is relatively simple to be sniffed out and stolen. EAP is built on a more secure public-key encryption system to ensure that only authorized network users can access the network.WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK uses a passphrase or key to authenticate your wireless connection. The key is an alpha-numeric password between 8 and 63 characters long. The password can include symbols (!?*&_) and spaces. This key must be the exact same key entered on your wireless router or access point.WPA/WPA2 incorporates user authentication through the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). EAP is built on a more secure public key encryption system to ensure that only authorized network users can access the network.

114D-Link DIR-645 User ManualSection 5 - TroubleshootingTroubleshootingThis chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and operation of the router. Read the following descriptions if you are having problems. The examples below are illustrated in Windows® XP. If you have a different operating system, the screen captures on your computer will look similar to the following examples.Why can’t I access the web-based configuration utility?When entering the IP address of the router (192.168.0.1 for example), you are not connecting to a website nor do you have to be connected to the Internet. The device has the utility built-in to a ROM chip in the device itself. Your computer must be on the same IP subnet to connect to the web-based utility.Make sure you have an updated Java-enabled web browser. We recommend the following:• Microsoft Internet Explorer® 6.0 and higher• Mozilla Firefox 3.0 and higher• Google™ Chrome 2.0 and higher• Apple Safari 3.0 and higherVerify physical connectivity by checking for solid link lights on the device. If you do not get a solid link light, try using a different cable or connect to a different port on the device if possible. If the computer is turned off, the link light may not be on.Disable any Internet security software running on the computer. Software firewalls such as Zone Alarm, Black Ice, Sygate, Norton Personal Firewall, and Windows® XP firewall may block access to the configuration pages. Check the help files included with your firewall software for more information on disabling or configuring it.Configure your Internet settings:• Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel. Double-click the Internet Options Icon. From the Security tab, click the button to restore the settings to their defaults.• Click the Connection tab and set the dial-up option to Never Dial a Connection. Click the LAN Settings button. Make sure nothing is checked. Click OK.• Go to the Advanced tab and click the button to restore these settings to their defaults. Click OK three times.• Close your web browser (if open) and open it.Access the web management. Open your web browser and enter the IP address of your router in the address bar. This should open the login page for your web management.If you still cannot access the configuration, unplug the power to the router for 10 seconds and plug back in. Wait about 30 seconds and try accessing the configuration. If you have multiple computers, try connecting using a different computer.
115D-Link DIR-645 User ManualSection 5 - TroubleshootingWhat can I do if I forgot my password?If you forgot your password, you must reset your router. Unfortunately this process will change all your settings back to the factory defaults. To reset the router, locate the reset button (hole) on the bottom panel of the unit. With the router powered on, use a paperclip to hold the button down for 10 seconds. Release the button and the router will go through its reboot process. Wait about 30 seconds to access the router. The default IP address is 192.168.0.1. When logging in, the username is admin and leave the password box empty.Why can’t I connect to certain sites or send and receive emails when connecting through my router?If you are having a problem sending or receiving email, or connecting to secure sites such as eBay, banking sites, and Hotmail, we suggest lowering the MTU in increments of ten (Ex. 1492, 1482, 1472, etc).To find the proper MTU Size, you’ll have to do a special ping of the destination you’re trying to go to. A destination could be another computer, or a URL.• Click on Start and then click Run.• Windows® 95, 98, and Me users type in command (Windows® NT, 2000, and XP users type in cmd) and press Enter (or click OK).• Once the window opens, you’ll need to do a special ping. Use the following syntax: ping [url] [-f] [-l] [MTU value]Example: ping yahoo.com -f -l 1472You should start at 1472 and work your way down by 10 each time. Once you get a reply, go up by 2 until you get a fragmented packet. Take that value and add 28 to the value to account for the various TCP/IP headers. For example, lets say that 1452 was the proper value, the actual MTU size would be 1480, which is the optimum for the network we’re working with (1452+28=1480).Once you find your MTU, you can now configure your router with the proper MTU size.To change the MTU rate on your router follow the steps below:• Open your browser, enter the IP address of your router (192.168.0.1) and click OK.• Enter your username (admin) and password (blank by default). Click OK to enter the web configuration page for the device.• Click on Setup and then click Manual Configure.• To change the MTU enter the number in the MTU field and click Save Settings to save your settings.• Test your email. If changing the MTU does not resolve the problem, continue changing the MTU in increments of ten.
