Quick Setup

2) W-LAN Setting

The other interface available for networking is the wireless LAN. You can set and use this interface by setting the “Network Device” menu as “W- LAN”.

Because the wireless LAN communicates through a radio channel, you have to configure additional feature. The followings will explain these features briefly. Please remember that the following features should be the same as your router.

z Network Name (SSID): you have to specify which router or device should be connected to your DP-S1. You can input the SSID of your wireless router with the screen-keyboard.

z Network Type: you have to specify the type of the device which the DP-S1 communicates with. If you connect your DP-S1 with a router, please set the “Network Type” as “Infrastructure”. If you connect your DP-S1 with a PC, please set the “Network Type” as “Ad-hoc”.

z Authentication Type: This is a more secure and safer connection between the DP-S1 and the router as they authenticate each other before communicating. Make sure it’s set the same as the authentication type of the router.

z Encryption Type: If this option is set, the DP-S1 will communicate with your router by encrypting the data. So, you can get a secure communication channel. Please set this the same as the encryption type of your router.

zKey: Some authentication and encryption types require a key. Please set the key same as your router.

The DP-S1 supports all security features which are most commonly supported in wireless routers to ensure the compatibility with wireless routers. You can set this configuration on the setup menu. Before you set this, be sure that you configure your wireless router.

The user also set the IP information for the wireless LAN interface. As can Ethernet device, you can select how you configure the IP information: automatic configuration from DHCP server or manual configuration. Please refer to the previous part of setting LAN interface.
