Getting Started

With its default settings, the DWL-G820, when activated, will connect

with other D-Link AirPlus Xtreme G products, right out of the box.

There are basically two modes of networking:

Infrastructure – using an access point or router

Ad-Hoc – communicating with another console, for Head to Head or
Peer-to-Peer communication, using wireless network adapters, such
as two or more DWL-G820 Wireless Gaming Adapters, on
each gaming console.

TM

This example illustrates an

Ad-Hoc

setup. Simply connect the DWL-G820 (refer to the

Quick Installation Guide) to your Ethernet-capable network device (in this case, a gaming
console
) and you will be able to connect wirelessly with other gaming consoles also
connected to DWL-G820s.
