Wireless Installation Considerations The D-Link wireless product lets you access your network using a wireless connection from virtually anywhere within the operating range of your wireless network. Keep in mind, however, that the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through, may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business.
Installation Attach the Stand To place the Internet Photo frame on a shelf or a flat surface, attach the supplied stand. Align the arrow on the stand with the arrow on the back of the frame (approximately at the 2:00 position). •...
Connect Ethernet Cable If you are connecting the DSM-210 to a wired network, connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the DSM-210 and the other end into your router or switch. If you are connecting to a wireless network, you can skip this step. Connect Power Supply Connect the supplied power adapter to the DSM-210 and the other end into an outlet.
Configuration This section will show you how to configure your new D-Link Wireless Internet Photo Frame. If you are not going to connect your DSM-210 to a network or to the Internet, and simply want to display pictures from the internal memory, memory card, and/or from an USB thumb drive, then skip to page 16.
WPA-PSK If the wireless network you are connecting to is using wireless security you will be prompted to enter the security passphrase. Using the arrow keys on the remote control, select each letter or number from the on screen keyboard and press OK.
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is the Wi-Fi Alliance’s standard for wireless security at the touch of a button. With WPS, the wireless network name (SSID) and encryption keys are automatically generated and broadcast to the client devices. Users do not have to memorize and input complicated passwords on their wireless devices. This considerably simplifies the process of setting up a wireless network securely.
Manually Enter SSID If the SSID Broadcast is not enabled on your wireless router or access point, it is necessary to enter the SSID or network name manually. In the right column, select Manual SSID Entry. Using the remote control, press the arrow keys to select each letter or number and press OK.
Connect to a Wired Network By default, the picture frame is set to wireless mode. To connect to your network using an Ethernet cable, you must set the picture frame to wired mode. Once the DSM-210 is powered on, use the remote control to navigate to the Setup icon.
Network Settings By default the DSM-210 is set to DHCP, allowing your network settings to be automatically configured from your router or DHCP server. Most networks have DHCP enabled. If you are not sure, please verify your router’s settings. If you would like to set a fixed IP address for your frame, select Static and press OK. Enter the IP settings in the 5 fields and select OK to save.
