Allow you to change the wireless settings to fit an existing wireless network or to customize your wireless network.

SSID
Service Set Identifier (SSID) is the name designated for a specific wireless local area network (WLAN). The SSID's factory default setting is "default". The SSID can be easily changed to connect to an existing wireless network or to establish a new wireless network.

Channel
Indicates the channel setting for the DWL-G730AP. By default the channel is set to 6. The Channel can be changed to fit the channel setting for an existing wireless network or to customize the wireless network.

Authentication
Authentication is a process by which a system verifies the identity of a user who wishes to access it. There are several types authentication for this device.

Open System: Select this option is allow all of the devices can connect to each other.

Shared Key: Select this option is not allow the devices connect to each other, even they have authentication.

WPA: WPA combines the features of WPA-PSK with the added benefit of 802.1x RADIUS authentication. This level of wireless security reqires an external RADIUS server is available on the network.

WPA-PSK (pre-shared key): This version of WPA does not support 802.1x and does not require a separate RADIUS server for user authentication. To configure simple set a common passphrase on the AP, Router and Clients.

WEP
Wired Equivalent Protocol (WEP) is a wireless security protocol for Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). WEP provides security by encrypting the data that is sent over the WLAN. The DWL-G730AP supports 2levels of WEP Encryption: 64Bit encryption, and 128Bit encryption. WEP is disabled by default. The WEP setting can be changed to fit an existing wireless network or to customize your wireless network.

Key Type
The Key Types that are supported by the DWL-G730AP are HEX (Hexadecimal) and ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange.) The Key Type can be changed to fit an existing wireless network or to customize your wireless network.

KEYS
Keys 1-4 allow you to easily change wireless encryption settings to maintain a secure network. Simply select the specific key to be used for encrypting wireless data on the network.

Dynamic IP Address/Static IP Address
The Access Point can be configured to obtain an IP address automatically from another DHCP server in the local network. By default, the Access Point is pre-configured with a fixed IP of 192.168.0.50. .

IP address
The factory default IP Address assigned to the D-Link Air DWL-G730AP is 192.168.0.50. The IP Address of each device in the wireless local area network must be within the same IP Address range and subnet mask. Therefore, each device in the WLAN (wireless local network) must have a unique IP Address in the format of 192.168.0.x.

Subnet Mask
Specify the subnet mask for the Access Point. The Subnet mask must be the same for all devices on the same subnet of the network. The default subnet settings for the Access Point is 255.255.255.0.

Gateway
Specify the gateway IP address for the local network.

The Access Point is capable of acting as a DHCP server. The DHCP settings can be enabled to allow the Access Point to assign IP addresses to other devices in the wireless local area network.

IP Range
By default, the unit will assign an IP address range between 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.199. The IP address range can be changed according to the requirements in a specific local network.
