Device Placement
To get the best wireless coverage, place your device in an open area away
from your computer, monitor, and speakers. Try to position the device so
that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways. Materials and
objects such as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (fish tanks),
mirrors, file cabinets, brick, and concrete will degrade your wireless signal.
Wireless Modes
Access Point Mode
- The DAP-1155 acts as a central connection point for
any wireless client that has an 802.11n or backward-compatible 802.11g
wireless network interface and is within range of the AP. Multiple clients
can connect to the AP at the same time.
Bridge Mode

Ethernet cable. Once you configure the device, you can place it into your
