My configuration uses only the wireless and switch parts of the box. When working as a router, the WAN port is in use with Network Address Translation (NAT) that shares the IP address of the WAN port with switch ports and the Wireless Access Point. The DHCP server gives out IP addresses in the range it is configured to use. I am not using the D-Link's WAN port, its NAT function or its DHCP server.
Same question - why does the wireless link behave differently from the copper one? How can I get the wireless link to talk to 10.0.0.200?
