6.Using the Configuration Utility

If you want to alter the default settings or optimize the performance of the DWL-650, D-Link has included a configuration utility to do so.

Note: Out of the box, with its default settings, the DWL-650+ will associate with D-Link Air / AirPlus wireless routers and access points. (e.g. DI-713P, DI-714, DWL-900AP, DWL-1000AP.)

After the computer restarts, the configuration utility will automatically start and the utility icon will appear in the bottom right hand corner of the screen (systray).
