Introduction
TOTAL PERFORMANCE
Combines award winning router features and Draft 802.11n wireless technology to provide the best wireless performance
TOTAL SECURITY
The most complete set of security features including Active Firewall and WPA2 to protect your network against outside
intruders
TOTAL COVERAGE
Provides greater wireless signal rates even at farther distances for best-in-class Whole Home Coverage.
ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE
The D-Link Xtreme N™ Router (DIR-655) is a draft 802.11n compliant device that delivers real world performance of up to
650% faster than an 802.11g wireless connection (also faster than a 100Mbps wired Ethernet connection). Create a secure
wireless network to share photos, les, music, video, printers, and network storage throughout your home. Connect the Xtreme
N™ Router to a cable or DSL modem and share your high-speed Internet access with everyone on the network. In addition,
this Router includes a Quality of Service (QoS) engine that keeps digital phone calls (VoIP) and online gaming smooth and
responsive, providing a better Internet experience.
EXTENDED WHOLE HOME COVERAGE
Powered by Xtreme N™ technology, this high performance router provides superior Whole Home Coverage while reducing dead
spots. The Xtreme N™ Router is designed for use in bigger homes and for users who demand higher performance networking.
Add a Xtreme N™ notebook or desktop adapter and stay connected to your network from virtually anywhere in your home.
TOTAL NETWORK SECURITY
The Xtreme N™ Router supports all of the latest wireless security features to prevent unauthorized access, be it from over the
wireless network or from the Internet. Support for WPA and WEP standards ensure that you’ll be able to use the best possible
encryption method, regardless of your client devices. In addition, this Xtreme N™ Router utilizes dual active rewalls (SPI and
NAT) to prevent potential attacks from across the Internet.
* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g and Draft 802.11n specications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and
environmental factors, including volume of network trafc, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental
conditions will adversely affect wireless signal range.

Section 2 - Installation
Before you Begin
Installation
This section will walk you through the installation process. Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the
router in an enclosed area such as a closet, cabinet, or in the attic or garage.
Please congure the router with the computer that was last connected directly to your modem. Also, you can only use
the Ethernet port on your modem. If you were using the USB connection before using the router, then you must turn off
your modem, disconnect the USB cable and connect an Ethernet cable to the Internet port on the router, and then turn
the modem back on. In some cases, you may need to call your ISP to change connection types (USB to Ethernet).
If you have DSL and are connecting via PPPoE, make sure you disable or uninstall any PPPoE software such as
WinPoet, Broadjump, or Enternet 300 from your computer or you will not be able to connect to the Internet.

Wireless Installation Considerations
The D-Link wireless router 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. The key
to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:
1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the D-Link router and other network devices to a
minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your adapter’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position
your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.
2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (.5 meters), at a
45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks 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. Building Materials make a difference. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative effect on
range. Try to position access points, wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through
drywall or open doorways. Materials and objects such as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water
(sh tanks), mirrors, le cabinets, brick, and concrete will degrade your wireless signal.
4. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that
generate RF noise.
5. If you are using 2.4GHz cordless phones or X-10 (wireless products such as ceiling fans, lights, and
home security systems), your wireless connection may degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make
sure your 2.4GHz phone base is as far away from your wireless devices as possible. The base transmits
a signal even if the phone in not in use.

Section 3 - Configuration
The DIR-655 can be congured as a virtual server so that remote users accessing Web or FTP services via the public
IP address can be automatically redirected to local servers in the LAN (Local Area Network).
The DIR-655 rewall feature lters out unrecognized packets to protect your LAN network so all computers networked
with the DIR-655 are invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of the LAN computers accessible
from the Internet by enabling Virtual Server. Depending on the requested service, the DIR-655 redirects the external
service request to the appropriate server within the LAN network.
The DIR-655 is also capable of port-redirection meaning incoming trafc to a particular port may be redirected to a
different port on the server computer.
Each virtual service that is created will be listed at the bottom of the screen in the Virtual Servers List. There are
pre-dened virtual services already in the table. You may use them by enabling them and assigning the server IP to
use that particular virtual service.

QoS Engine
This option is disabled by default. Enable this
option for better performance and experience with
online games and other interactive applications,
such as VoIP.
This option should be enabled when you have a
slow Internet uplink. It helps to reduce the impact
that large low priority network packets can have
on more urgent ones.
This option is enabled by default when the QoS
Engine option is enabled. This option will allow
your router to automatically determine the uplink
speed of your Internet connection.
This displays the detected uplink speed.
The speed at which data can be transferred from the router to your ISP. This is determined by your ISP. ISP’s often speed
as a download/upload pair. For example, 1.5Mbits/284Kbits. Using this example, you would enter 284. Alternatively you can
test your uplink speed with a service such as www.dslreports.com.
By default, the router automatically determines whether the underlying connection is an xDSL/Frame-relay network or some
other connection type (such as cable modem or Ethernet), and it displays the result as Detected xDSL or Frame Relay Network.
If you have an unusual network connection in which you are actually connected via xDSL but for which you congure either
“Static” or “DHCP” in the Internet settings, setting this option to xDSL or Other Frame Relay Network ensures that the router
will recognize that it needs to shape trafc slightly differently in order to give the best performance. Choosing xDSL or Other
Frame Relay Network causes the measured uplink speed to be reported slightly lower than before on such connections, but
gives much better results.
When Connection Type is set to automatic, the automatically detected connection type is displayed here.
