Troubleshooting (continued)
24. VideoPhone does not boot up.
Video is not being displayed on television.
Ensure that the video and audio cables are plugged in correctly to both
the VideoPhone and television. The television should be set for video
input. Consult your television user manual for support.
The VideoPhone doesn't have power or is not turned on.
Ensure that the AC adapter is plugged into an outlet and the other end is
plugged into the VideoPhone. The switch on the back of the VideoPhone
must be set to the on position.
Not enough time given to finish booting.
The boot up process could take several minutes. Be sure you wait long
enough. If the VideoPhone still doesn't boot up, turn it off for one to two
minutes and then turn it back on.
25. Wireless Network Hints and Tips
A wireless network lets you place your DVC-1100 nearly anywhere you
want. However, keep in mind, that range is limited by the number of walls,
ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through.
Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background
RF noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing range is to
follow these basic principles:
1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings to a minimum - Each wall or
ceiling can rob your D-Link Air Wireless product of 3-90 ft. of range.
Position your Access Points, Residential Gateways, and computers so
that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.
2. Be aware of the direct line between Access Points, Residential
Gateways, and Computers - A wall that is 1.5 feet thick, at a 45 degree
angle, appears to be almost 3 feet thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks over
42 feet thick! Try to make sure that the Access Point and Adapters are
positioned so that the signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling
for better reception.
3. Building Materials make a difference - A solid metal door or aluminum
studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position Access Points,
Residential Gateways, and Computers so that the signal passes through
drywall or open doorways and not other materials.
