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 DI-624.

The D-Link DI-624 is a wireless router that has gained recognition for its robust performance and versatile features. Designed to cater to home and small office networks, this router provides users with high-speed wireless connectivity along with a range of functionalities that enhance networking capabilities.

One of the main features of the D-Link DI-624 is its compliance with the Wireless G standard (IEEE 802.11g).

In terms of connectivity, the D-Link DI-624 is equipped with four 10/100 Ethernet ports, which enable users to connect wired devices for a stable internet connection. This dual capability of both wired and wireless connections offers flexibility when building a network.

Another notable characteristic of the D-Link DI-624 is its ability to support multiple SSIDs (Service Set Identifiers). This allows users to create separate networks for guests, ensuring that primary network resources remain secure and accessible only to authorized devices.

In summary, the D-Link DI-624 is a reliable and feature-packed wireless router ideal for small networks.
