Section 5 - Troubleshooting
• Conigure your Internet settings:
• Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel. Double-click the Internet Options Icon. From the Security tab, click the button to restore
the settings to their defaults.
• Click the Connection tab and set the dial-up option to Never Dial a Connection. Click the LAN Settings button. Make sure nothing
is checked. Click OK.
• Go to the Advanced tab and click the button to restore these settings to their defaults. Click OK three times.
• Close your web browser (if open) and open it.
• Access the web management interface. Open your web browser and enter the address of your extender (http://dlinkap.
local) in the address bar. This should open the login page for your web management. If the DCH-M225 is not connected to
an uplink router, you can try accessing the web interface using the default IP address http://192.168.0.50.
• If you still cannot access the coniguration, unplug the extender from the power outlet for at least 10 seconds and plug it
back in. Wait about 30 seconds and try accessing the coniguration. If you have multiple computers, try connecting using a
diferent computer.
2. What can I do if I forgot my password?
If you forgot your password, you must reset your extender. Unfortunately this process will change all your settings back to the
factory defaults.
To reset the extender, locate the reset button (hole) on the underside panel of the unit. With the extender powered on, use
a paperclip to hold the button down for 10 seconds. Release the button and the extender will go through its reboot process
(indicated by the LED turning red). Wait about 30 seconds to access the extender. The default IP address is http://dlinkap.
local. When logging in, the username is admin and leave the password box empty.
