Requirements
The computer you are using must have the following:

A functional USB port. (Note: Please see Appendix A for more
information on the USB Configuration Utility and the SNMP
Configuration Utility. SNMP stands for Simple Network
Management Protocol.)
•
The operating system must be Microsoft Windows XP, 2000, ME,
98SE, or 98
When you are networking your DWL-900AP with other D-Link Air Wireless
products, no configuration is needed! Your DWL-900AP has default settings that
will work with other D-Link Air products, right out of the box.
If there is a need to change the configuration, you may use the USB Configuration
Utility or the SNMP Utility. In order to use the SNMP Utility, the DWL-900AP
must first be assigned an IP address. Please complete the steps below to install and
configure the DWL-900AP with the USB Configuration Utility.
