1 Why can´t I access the Web based configuration?

When entering the IP Address of the DI-624M (192.168.0.1), you are not connecting to the Internet or 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.

To resolve difficulties accessing a Web utility, please follow the steps below.

Step 1: Verify 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.

Computer to Computer

Computer to Uplink Port

Computer to Access Point

Computer to Print Server

Computer/XBOX/PS2 to DWL-810

Computer/XBOX/PS2 to DWL-900AP+

Uplink Port to Uplink Port (hub/switch)
