29D-Link DWA-131 User Manual Section 3 - Configuration Connect to a Wireless Network Using Windows Vista ® Windows Vista ® users may use the built-in wireless utility. If you are using another company’s utility, please refer to the user manual of your wireless adapter for help with connecting to a wireless network. Most utilities will have a “site survey” option similar to the Windows Vista ® utility as seen below. Right-click on the wireless computer icon in your system tray (lower- right corner next to the time). Select Connect to a network. If you receive the Wireless Networks Detected bubble, click on the center of the bubble to access the utility. or The utility will display any available wireless networks in your area. Click on a network (displayed using the SSID) and click the Connect button. If you get a good signal but cannot access the Internet, check you TCP/IP settings for your wireless adapter. Refer to the Networking Basics section in this manual for more information. 30D-Link DWA-131 User Manual Section 3 - Configuration Connect to a Wireless Network Using Windows ® XP Windows ® XP users may use the built-in wireless utility (Zero Configuration Utility). The following instructions are for Service Pack 2 users. If you are using another company’s utility, please refer to the user manual of your wireless adapter for help with connecting to a wireless network. Most utilities will have a “site survey” option similar to the Windows ® XP utility as seen below. Right-click on the wireless computer icon in your system tray (lower-right corner next to the time). Select View Available Wireless Networks. If you receive the Wireless Networks Detected bubble, click on the center of the bubble to access the utility. or The utility will display any available wireless networks in your area. Click on a network (displayed using the SSID) and click the Connect button. If you get a good signal but cannot access the Internet, check your TCP/ IP settings for your wireless adapter. Refer to the Networking Basics section in this manual for more information. 31D-Link DWA-131 User Manual Section 4 - Wireless Security Wireless Security This section will show you the different levels of security you can use to protect your data from intruders. The DWA-131 offers the following types of security: • WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) • WPA2-PSK (Pre-Shared Key) • WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) • WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key) What is WPA? WPA, or Wi-Fi Protected Access, is a Wi-Fi standard that was designed to improve the security features of WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy). The 2 major improvements over WEP: • Improved data encryption through the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP). TKIP scrambles the keys using a hashing algorithm and, by adding an integrity-checking feature, ensures that the keys haven’t been tampered with. WPA2 is based on 802.11i and uses Advanced Encryption Standard instead of TKIP. • User authentication, which is generally missing in WEP, through the extensible authentication protocol (EAP). WEP regulates access to a wireless network based on a computer’s hardware-specific MAC address, which is relatively simple to be sniffed out and stolen. EAP is built on a more secure public-key encryption system to ensure that only authorized network users can access the network. WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK uses a passphrase or key to authenticate your wireless connection. The key is an alpha-numeric password between 8 and 63 characters long. The password can include symbols (!?*&_) and spaces. This key must be the exact same key entered on your wireless router or access point. WPA/WPA2 incorporates user authentication through the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). EAP is built on a more secure public key encryption system to ensure that only authorized network users can access the network. 32D-Link DWA-131 User Manual Section 4 - Wireless Security Configure WPA/WPA2 Passphrase Using the D-Link Wireless Connection Manager It is recommended to enable WPA-PSK on your wireless router or access point before configuring your wireless adapter. If you are joining an existing network, you will need to know the WPA-PSK passphrase being used. 1. Open the Wireless Connection Manager by double-clicking on the D-Link icon on your desktop. 2. Highlight the wireless network (SSID) you would like to connect to and click Connect. If the network is using WPA-PSK, the screen (as shown to the bottom-right) will appear. 3. Enter the WPA-PSK passphrase exactly as it is on your wireless router or access point. Click the Show text in the password field box to see the passphrase. Unchecking it will hide it. 4. Click OK to connect to the network. Allow up to 30 seconds to connect. If you would like to create a new network and enter the WPA-PSK settings, refer to the next page. 33D-Link DWA-131 User Manual Section 4 - Wireless Security It is recommended to enable WPA-PSK on your wireless router or access point before configuring your wireless adapter. Make sure you enter the passphrase exactly the same on all wireless devices. 1. Open the Wireless Connection Manager by double-clicking on the D-Link icon on your desktop. Click on New to create a new profile or highlight an existing profile and click Modify. 2. Select WPA/WPA2-Personal under Set Security Option. 3. Select TKIP or AES. 4. Enter the passphrase exactly as it is on your wireless router or access point. 5. Click OK to connect to the network. Allow up to 30 seconds to connect. 34D-Link DWA-131 User Manual Section 4 - Wireless Security Configure WPA/WPA2 Passphrase Using Windows ® 7 It is recommended to enable wireless security (WPA/WPA2) on your wireless router or access point before configuring your wireless adapter.
