Troubleshooting
This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and operation of the DAP-1160. Read
the following descriptions if you are having problems. The examples below use Windows
®
XP. If you have a different
operating system, the troubleshooting steps may be different from the following examples.
1. Why can’t I access the web-based conguration utility?
When entering the IP address of the D-Link access point (for example, 192.168.0.50), you are not connecting to a
website on the Internet or have to be connected to the Internet. The device has the utility built-in to a ROM chip in the
device itself. Your computer must be on the same IP subnet to connect to the web-based utility.
• Make sure you have an updated Java-enabled web browser. We recommend the following:
• Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher
• Firefox 1.5 or higher
• Verify physical connectivity by checking for solid link lights on the device. If you do not get a solid link light, try using
a different cable or connect to a different port on the device if possible. If the computer is turned off, the link light may
not be on.
• Disable any internet security software running on the computer. Software rewalls such as Zone Alarm, Black Ice,
Sygate, Norton Personal Firewall, and Windows
®
XP rewall may block access to the conguration pages. Check the
help les included with your rewall software for more information on disabling or conguring it.
