Section 2 - Installation  
Wireless Installation Considerations  
The DWR-830 can be accessed using a wireless connection from anywhere within the operating range of its wireless network. Keep in mind that  
the quantity, thickness, and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through may adversely affect wireless  
signals. Ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or office. The key to maximizing  
the wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:  
1. Minimize the number of walls and ceilings between the router and other network devices. Each wall or ceiling can reduce your adapter’s range  
from 3 to 90 feet (1 to 30 meters).  
2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (0.5 meters) appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick at a  
45-degree angle. At a 2-degree angle it appears over 42 feet (14 meters) thick. Position devices so that the signal will travel straight through a  
wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.  
3. Try to position access points, wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through open doorways and drywall. Materials such as  
glass, metal, brick, insulation, concrete, and water can affect wireless performance. Large objects such as fish tanks, mirrors, file cabinets, metal  
doors, and aluminum studs may also have a negative effect on range.  
4. If you are using a 2.4 GHz cordless phone, make sure that the 2.4 GHz phone base is as far away from your wireless device as possible. The base  
transmits a signal even if the phone is not in use. In some cases, cordless phones, X-10 wireless devices, and electronic equipment such as ceiling  
fans, fluorescent lights, and home security systems may dramatically degrade wireless connectivity.

Section 2 - Installation  
Configuration  
This section will show you how to configure your new D-Link mobile router using the configuration utility that can be obtained through a software  
interface or a web-based user interface.  
Initial Connection to the Router  
When configuring the router for the first time, you will need to establish a direct connection with the router in order to access the web-based  
configuration utility. This can be done using the included USB cable, or by connecting wirelessly to the DWR-830. Once you have configured your  
router, you will be able to connect using the Wi-Fi settings that you have specified in the configuration process. Ensure that the router is powered  
on and has sufficient battery power before commencing the setup process.  
Connect via USB  
To connect to the router via USB, plug the provided micro USB cable into the micro USB port on the bottom of the router, and plug the other end  
into an available USB port on your computer.Your router is now ready for configuration, please refer to“Configuration Utility”on page 12 to continue  
the setup process.

Section 2 - Installation  
Connect via Wi-Fi  
Note: The following example uses Windows 7’s built-in wireless connection utility. If you are using a different operating system, or a third party  
connection utility, the process may be different. Please refer to the documentation that came with your operating system or wireless client for  
further information on how to connect to a wireless network.  
To connect to the router using Wi-Fi, open your operating system’s wireless networking utility  
and scan for available networks to connect to. By default, the network name (SSID) of the  
DWR-830 will be in the format dlink_DWR-830xxxx, where “xxxx” represents the last four  
character’s of the router’s MAC address.  
Once you have located this network with your wireless utility, connect to the network using  
your wireless networking utility.

Section 5 - Troubleshooting  
Troubleshooting  
This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and operation of the DWR-830. Read the following descriptions  
if you are having problems.  
1. Why can’t I access the web-based configuration utility?  
When entering the IP address of your router (192.168.0.1 for example), 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 8 or higher, Chrome 19.0, Firefox 12.0, or Safari 4.0.  
• If attempting to connect wirelessly, ensure that the wireless icon on the OLED display is showing. Also, ensure that you are connected  
to the correct SSID for your mobile router.  
• Make sure that the computer you are using is not connected to any other devices (such as routers or switches) which might have  
the same IP address as the DWR-830, as this may cause an IP address conflict. If you have a conflict, temporarily unplug any other  
devices from your computer while you configure the DWR-830. You can also change the IP address of the DWR-830 in the Network  
section of the configuration utility. Please refer to “Wi-Fi” on page 24 for further information on changing the IP address. You may  
also need to renew your computer’s IP address configuration. To do this, start the Command utility: Click on Start > Run. In the run  
box type cmd and click OK. (Windows Vista users type cmd in the Start Search box.) This will bring up a black screen with white text.  
At the command prompt, type ipconfig /release and wait for the process to be completed. Next, type ipconfig /renew which will  
renew your computer’s IP address configuration.  
• 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.

Section 5 - Troubleshooting  
• Configure your Internet settings:  
- Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel. Double-click the Internet Options Icon. From the Security tab, click the Default Level  
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 re-open it.  
2. What can I do if I forgot my password?  
If you forgot your password, you must reset your router. Please note that this process will change all your settings back to the factory defaults.  
To reset the router, first remove the back cover of the router to expose the battery. Using  
a paperclip or similar object, press and hold the reset button, which is located inside  
the hole to the upper-left of the SIM card slot (see diagram). The DWR-830 will restore  
Reset Button  
the factory default settings. Wait about 30 seconds for the router to restart before you  
attempt to reconnect to it.The default IP address is 192.168.0.1, and the default username  
is admin and the password should be left blank.

Networking Basics  
Check your IP address  
After you install your new D-Link adapter, by default, the TCP/IP settings should be set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server (i.e. wireless  
router) automatically. To verify your IP address, please follow the steps below.  
Click on Start > Run. In the run box type cmd and click OK.  
(Windows® Vistausers type cmd in the Start Search box.)  
At the prompt, type ipconfig and press Enter.  
This will display the IP address, subnet mask, and the default  
gateway of your adapter.  
If the address is 0.0.0.0, check your adapter installation, security settings, and the settings on your router. Some firewall software programs may  
block a DHCP request on newly installed adapters.

Appendix B - Networking Basics  
Statically Assign an IP address  
If you are not using a DHCP capable gateway/router, or you need to assign a static IP address, please follow the steps below:  
Step 1  
Windows® 8  
Click on Start > Control Panel > Network and Internet Connections > Network Connections > Configure your Internet  
Protocol (IP) settings.  
Windows® 7  
Click on Start > Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center > Manage Network Connections.  
Windows® VistaClick on Start > Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center > Manage Network Connections.  
Windows® XP  
Click on Start > Control Panel > Network Connections.  
Step 2  
Right-click on the Local Area Connection which represents your network adapter and select Properties.  
Step 3  
Highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties.  
Step 4  
Click Use the following IP address and enter an IP address that is on the same subnet as your network  
or the LAN IP address on your router.  
Example: If the router´s LAN IP address is 192.168.0.1, make your IP address 192.168.0.X where X is a  
number between 2 and 99. Make sure that the number you choose is not in use on the network. Set  
Default Gateway the same as the LAN IP address of your router (192.168.0.1).  
Set Primary DNS the same as the LAN IP address of your router (192.168.0.1). The Secondary DNS is not  
needed or you may enter a DNS server from your ISP.  
Step 5  
Click OK twice to save your settings.
