Troubleshooting
This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and operation of the DAP-1320. Read the
following descriptions if you are having problems. The examples below are illustrated in Windows® XP. If you have a different
operating system, the screenshots on your computer will look similar to the following examples.
1. Why can’t I access the web-based configuration utility?
When entering the IP address of the Wireless N300 POE Bridge (dlinkap.local for example), you are not connecting to a website
nor do you 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 7 or later
• Firefox 12.0 or later
• Safari 4 or later
• Google Chrome 20.0 or later
• Make sure that you are connected to the same wireless network which is listed on the base of the DAP-1316-ES. If you have
an active wired LAN Ethernet connection, try temporarily unplugging the Ethernet cable from the computer you are using,
as this may eliminate possible conflicts from having two simultaneous connections on the same computer.
• Disable any Internet security software running on the computer. Software firewalls such as ZoneAlarm, BlackICE, Sygate,
Norton Personal Firewall, and Windows
®
XP firewall may block access to the configuration pages. Check the help files included
with your firewall software for more information on disabling or configuring it.
