• Widespread industry acceptance – choose from a wide range of
interoperable networking products
Placement of your Wireless Networking Hardware for Optimal Performance
F5D7051 Manual_20071012 Page 3 of 32
Your wireless connection will be stronger the closer your computer is to your
wireless router (or access point). Typical indoor operating range for your wireless
devices is between 300 and 400 feet. In the same way, your wireless connection
and performance will degrade somewhat as the distance between your wireless
router (or access point) and connected devices increases. This may or may not
be noticeable to you. As you move farther from your wireless router (or access
point), connection speed may decrease. Factors that can weaken signals simply
by getting in the way of your network’s radio waves are metal appliances or
obstructions, and walls.
If you have concerns about your network’s performance that might be related to
range or obstruction factors, try moving the computer to a position between five
and 10 feet away from the wireless router (or access point) in order to see if
distance is the problem. If difficulties persist even at close range, please contact
Belkin Technical Support.
Note: While some of the items listed below can affect network performance, they
will not prohibit your wireless network from functioning; if you are concerned that
your network is not operating at its maximum effectiveness, this checklist may
help.
1. Placement of your Wireless Router (or Access Point)
Place your wireless router (or access point), the central connection point of your
network, as close as possible to the center of your wireless network devices.
To achieve the best wireless network coverage for your “wireless clients,” (i.e.
computers enabled by Belkin Wireless Notebook Cards, Wireless Desktop Cards,
and Wireless USB Adapters):
• Ensure that your wireless router’s (or access point’s) antennas are parallel to
each other, and are positioned vertically (toward the ceiling). If your wireless
router (or access point) itself is positioned vertically, point the antennas as much
as possible in an upward direction.
• In multistory homes, place the wireless router (or access point) on a floor that is
as close to the center of the home as possible. This may mean placing the
wireless router (or access point) on an upper floor.
• Try not to place the wireless router (or access point) near a cordless 2.4GHz
phone
2. Avoid Obstacles and Interference
Avoid placing your wireless router (or access point) near devices that may emit
radio “noise”, such as microwave ovens. Other objects that can inhibit wireless
communication can include:
F5D7051 Manual_20071012 Page 4 of 32
• Refrigerators
• Washers and/or dryers
• Metal cabinets
• Large aquariums
• Metallic-based, UV-tinted windows
If your wireless signal seems weak in some spots, make sure that objects such
as these are not blocking the signal’s path between your computers and wireless
router (or access point).
3. Cordless Phone Placement
If the performance of your wireless network is impaired after attending to the
above issues, and you have a cordless phone:
• Try moving cordless phones away from the wireless router (or access point)
and your wireless-enabled computers.
• Unplug and remove the battery from any cordless phone that operates on the
2.4GHz band (check manufacturer’s information). If this fixes the problem, your
phone may be interfering.
• If your phone supports channel selection, change the channel on the phone to
the farthest channel from your wireless network as possible. For example,
change the phone to channel 1 and move your wireless router (or access point)
to channel 11. (Your channel selection will vary depending on your region.) See
your phone’s user manual for detailed instructions.
• If necessary, consider switching to a 900MHz or 5GHz cordless phone.
4. Choose the “Quietest” Channel for your Wireless Network
In locations where homes or offices are close together, such as apartment
buildings or office complexes, there may be wireless networks nearby that can
conflict with yours. Use the Site Survey capabilities of your Wireless Setup Utility
to locate any other wireless networks, and move your wireless router (or access
point) and computers to a channel as far away from other networks as possible.
Experiment with more than one of the available channels, in order to find the
clearest connection and avoid interference from neighboring cordless phones or
other wireless devices.
For more Belkin wireless networking products, use the detailed Site Survey and
wireless channel information included in your User Manual.
F5D7051 Manual_20071012 Page 5 of 32
5. Secure Connections, VPNs, and AOL
Secure connections typically require a user name and password, and are used
where security is important. Secure connections include:
• Virtual Private Network (VPN) connections, often used to connect remotely to
an office network
• The “Bring Your Own Access” program from America Online (AOL), which lets
you use AOL through broadband provided by another cable or DSL service
• Most online banking websites
• Many commercial websites that require a user name and password to access
your account
Secure connections can be interrupted by a computer’s power management
setting, which causes it to “go to sleep.” The simplest solution to avoid this is to
simply reconnect by re-running the VPN or AOL software, or by re-logging into
the secure website.
A second alternative is to change your computer’s power management settings
so it does not go to sleep; however, this may not be appropriate for portable
computers. To change your power management setting in Windows, see the
“Power Options” item in the Control Panel.
If you continue to have difficulty with Secure Connections, VPNs, and AOL,
please review steps 1–4 above to be sure you have addressed these issues.
These guidelines should allow you to cover the maximum possible area with your
wireless router. Should you need to cover an even wider area, we suggest the
Belkin Wireless Range Extender/Access Point.

Securing your Wireless Network
Most wireless products ship with security turned off. This means that once you
have your network working, you may need to activate WEP or WPA and make
sure all your wireless devices are sharing the same network key.
The following diagram shows the effect of not having the correct network key
throughout your network.

Setting up your Belkin Wireless Router (or Access Point) to use Security
To start using security, you need to first enable WEP or WPA for your wireless
router (or access point). For Belkin Wireless Routers and Access Points, these
security features can be configured by using the web-based interface. (See your
wireless router’s (or access point’s) manual for directions on how to access the
management interface.)
Your Dynex wireless adapter is equipped with the latest security standard
called Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2™) and the legacy security standard
called Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP). It also supports the Wi-Fi Protected
Setup (WPS) specification, which simplifies the setup of a wireless network.
WPS uses familiar methodologies, such as typing in a Personal
Identification Number (PIN) or pushing a button, to enable users to
automatically configure network names and strong WPA/WPA2 data
encryption and authentication.
Using Wi-Fi Protected Setup
1. Encryption key if not using WPS
2. Personal Identification Number (PIN) Method: In this method, your
wireless adapter will generate a PIN to be entered into your router
3. Push Button Configuration (PBC) Method: Your wireless adapter can also
connect by using the software push button.
4. Manual Configuration Method: This section lists the default security
settings to be set up if not using WPS.
WPS uses WPA2 (described below) for encryption. It does not provide additional
security, but rather, standardizes the method for securing your wireless network.
F5D7051 Manual_20071012 Page 18 of 32
On your client utility, WPS-enabled networks are denoted with the key icon. You
may use either the Push Button Configuration (PBC) method or PIN method to
allow a device access to your wireless network. Conceptually, the two methods
work as follows:
PBC: Push and hold the WPS button located on the back of your router for three
seconds. Then, initiate the WPS procedure on the client utility within two minutes.
Select the network name in the utility and click “Connect”. Your client will
automatically exchange the security information and be added to your wireless
network. The Push Button Configuration method can also be initiated from the
client side.
PIN: Your client device has an eight digit PIN number that is associated with
WPS. Select the WPS-enabled network and click “Connect” to start the WPS
process. Choose the PIN method option and complete the WPS procedure on
your router. The client will be automatically enrolled into your wireless network
within two minutes.

If you have a signal but can’t get online or obtain an IP address, the problem may
be that there is a mismatch between the encryption key settings in your computer
and wireless router (or access point).
Check the WEP key settings to see if they match. The key is case-sensitive and
the spelling on each computer and wireless router (or access point) must be
exactly the same in order for the Adapter to connect to the router. For more
information about encryption, please see the “Securing your Wi-Fi Network”
section in this User Manual.
If issues persist even at close range, please contact Belkin Technical Support.
Data transfer is sometimes slow.
Wireless technology is radio-based, which means connectivity and the
throughput performance between devices decreases when the distance between
devices increases. Other factors that will cause signal degradation (metal is
generally the worst culprit) are obstructions such as walls and metal appliances.
As a result, the typical indoor range of your wireless devices will be between 100
F5D7051 Manual_20071012 Page 26 of 32
to 200 feet. Note also that connection speed may decrease as you move farther
from the wireless router (or access point).
In order to determine if wireless issues are related to range, we suggest
temporarily moving the computer, if possible, to five to 10 feet away from the
wireless router (or access point). Please see the section titled “Placement of your
Wireless Networking Hardware for Optimal Performance” in this User Manual.
If issues persist even at close range, please contact Belkin Technical Support.
Why are there two wireless utilities in my system tray? Which one should I
use?
There are several features and advantages to using the Belkin Wireless Setup
Utility over the Windows XP Wireless Zero Configuration utility. We offer a site
survey, detailed link information, and adapter diagnosis, to name a few.

You are now using the Belkin Wireless Setup Utility to configure the Adapter.
What’s the difference between 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11a, and Pre-N?
Currently there are four levels of wireless networking standards, which transmit
data at very different maximum speeds. Each is based on the designation for
certifying network standards. The most common wireless networking standard,
802.11b, transmits information at 11Mbps; 802.11a and 802.11g work at 54Mbps;
and Pre-N works at 108Mbps. Pre-N, the precursor to the upcoming 802.11n
release, promises speeds that exceed 802.11g, and up to twice the wireless
coverage area. See the following chart for more detailed information.
