Section 2 - Installation Installation Please configure the DAP-1650 with a computer connected directly to the device. The following pages will explain the different operational modes you can use. Operation Modes The DAP-1650 features three operation modes, enabling you to customize it to your networking requirements. Please refer to the following sections to determine which mode is most suitable for your network.
Section 2 - Installation Access Point Mode Access Point (AP) mode adds wireless capability to your existing wired network. The DAP-1650 acts as a central connection point for any computer (client) that has an 802.11ac or backwards compatible 802.11n/g/b/a wireless network interface and is within range of the access point. Clients must connect to the network name (SSID) broadcast by the access point in order to wirelessly access the network.
Section 2 - Installation Repeater Mode In Repeater mode, the DAP-1650 extends the range of your existing wireless network by repeating the wireless signal of another access point or wireless router. The DAP-1650 and wireless router (if used) must be within range of each other. The extended wireless network can use the same SSID and security settings as the existing network, or you can choose to specify a new network name and security method.
Section 2 - Installation Media Bridge Mode In Media Bridge mode, the DAP-1650 creates a wireless link between two existing networks, and enables you to attach a wired device to a wireless network.The two networks must be within wireless reach of one another in order for bridge mode to be effective.
Section 2 - Installation Wireless Installation Considerations The DAP-1650 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Range Extender lets you access your network using a wireless connection from virtually anywhere within the operating range of the device.

Section 4 - Security Wireless Security This section will explain the different types of security you can use to protect your wireless network from intruders. Please note that some security methods may not be available for all operation modes.
Section 4 - Security 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.
