Getting Started

Setting up a Wireless Ad Hoc Network

Install the D-Link AirPro DWL-AB520 Wireless Network adapter

into the desktop computer.

See the Quick Installation Guide included

with the product for installation instructions.

Install a wireless network adapter into the laptop computer. In the

example above the DWL-A650, DWL-650+ or DWL-650 may be

installed into a laptop computer.

See the Quick Installation Guide

included with the product.

Set the wireless configuration for the adapters to Ad-Hoc mode, set

the adapters to the same channel, and assign an IP Address to

each computer on the Ad-Hoc network.

(See Box below)

When assigning IP Addresses to the computers on the network, please

remember that the IP Address for each computer must be in the same

IP Address range as all the computers in the network, and the subnet

mask must be exactly the same for all the computers in the network.

For example: If the first computer is assigned an IP Address of 192.168.0.2

with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0, then the second computer can be

assigned an IP Address of 192.168.0.3 with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0,

etc.

IMPORTANT: If computers or other devices are assigned the same IP

Address, one or more of the devices may not be visible on the network.
