Prelaunch Checklist
Administrator's Computer
Configuration and administration of the D-Link DWL-2210AP is accomplished with
the KickStart utility (which you run from the CD) and through a Web-based user
interface.
The DWL-2210AP must be installed into a DHCP-enabled network in order to use
the KickStart utility for configuration. The following table describes the minimum
requirements for the administrator's computer.
Required Software

Ethernet Connection to
the First Access Point

Description
The computer used to configure the first access point with
KickStart must be connected to the access point (either directly
or through a hub) by an Ethernet cable.
For more information on this step, see "Step 2. Connect the
access point to network and power" in Quick Steps for Setup
and Launch of Your Wireless Network.
After initial configuration and launch of the first access points
on your new wireless network, you can make subsequent
configuration changes through the Administration Web pages
using a wireless connection to the "Internal" network. For
wireless connection to the access point, your administration
device will need Wi-Fi capability similar to that of any wireless
client:
• Portable or built-in Wi-Fi client adapter that supports one or
more of the IEEE 802.11 modes in which you plan to run the
access point. (IEEE 802.11b, 802.11g, and
modes are supported.)
• Wireless client software such as Microsoft Windows XP or
Funk Odyssey wireless client configured to associate with
the D-Link DWL-2210AP.
For more details on Wi-Fi client setup, see "Wireless Client
Computers" in this manual.
