Configuring your Belkin Wireless G Network Cards to
Use Security
Please Note: This section is to provide you with the information on how
to configure your Belkin Wireless G Network Cards to use security.
At this point, you should already have your Wireless Router or Access
Point set to use WPA or WEP. In order for you to gain a wireless
connection, you will need to set your wireless notebook card and
wireless desktop card to use the same security settings.
Connecting your Computer to a Wireless Network that Requires a
64-bit or 128-bit WEP key:
1.
Double-click the Signal Indicator icon to bring up the Wireless
Network screen. The Advanced button will allow you to view and
configure more options of your card.
2.
Under the “Wireless Network Properties” tab, select a network
name from the “Available networks” list and click “Configure”.
3.
Under “Data Encryption” select “WEP”.
4.
Ensure the check box “Network key is provided for me
automatically” at the bottom is unchecked. If you are using this
computer to connect to a corporate network, please consult your
network administrator if this box needs to be checked.
5.
Type your WEP key in
the “Network key” box.
Important: A WEP key is
a mixture of numbers and
letters from A–F and 0–9.
For 128-bit WEP, you need
to enter 26 keys. For
64-bit WEP, you need to
enter 10 keys. This Network
key needs to match the key
you assign to your Wireless
Router or Access Point.
6.
Click “OK” to save
the settings.

Setting Up WPA for a Non-Belkin Wireless Desktop and
Wireless Notebook Cards
For non-Belkin WPA Wireless Desktop and Wireless Notebook
Cards that are not equipped with WPA-enabled software, a file from
Microsoft called “Windows XP Support Patch for Wireless Protected
Access” is available for free download.
Please Note: The file that Microsoft has made available works only
with Windows XP. Other operating systems are not supported at
this time.
Important: You also need to ensure that the wireless card
manufacturer supports WPA and that you have downloaded and
installed the latest driver from their support site.

Using the Access Point Mode
Note: This advanced feature should be employed by advanced users
only. The Router can be configured to work as a wireless network
access point. Using this mode will defeat the NAT IP sharing feature
and DHCP server. In Access Point (AP) mode, the Router will need to
be configured with an IP address that is in the same subnet as the
rest of the network that you will bridge to. The default IP address
is 192.168.2.254 and subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. These can be
customized for your need.
1.
Enable the AP mode my selecting “Enable” in the “Use as Access
Point only” page. When you select this option, you will be able to
change the IP settings.
2.
Set your IP settings to match your network. Click “Apply
Changes”.
3.
Connect a cable from the WAN port on the Router to your
existing network.
The Router is now acting as an access point. To access the Router’s
advanced user interface again, type the IP address you specified into
your browser’s navigation bar. You can set the encryption settings,
MAC address filtering, SSID, and channel normally.

Wireless Range Extension and Bridging
Wireless Range Extension and Bridging works with the following
models only:
F5D7231-4P High-Speed Mode Wireless G Router with Built-In
USB Print Server
F5D7231-4 High-Speed Mode Wireless G Router
F5D7230-4 Wireless Router
F5D7235-4 High-Speed Mode Wireless G Gigabit Router
F5D7130 Wireless Range Extender/Access Point
Please make sure to download the latest firmware version for the Router or
Access Point for optimal performance: http://web.belkin.com/support
What is a Wireless Bridge?
Range Extension
Range extension will extend the wireless coverage area in your home
or office. The example on the next page illustrates use of bridging to
extend the range of your wireless network. In this example, the Router
is set up to connect to an Access Point located in another area.
Laptops can roam, or move between the two wireless coverage areas.
* Wireless Range Extension and bridging will not work while in 125
HSM mode.

section
A wireless bridge is actually a “mode” in which your Wireless Router
can directly connect to a secondary Wireless Access Point. Note
that you can only bridge your Wireless G Router (model F5D7230-4,
F5D7235-4, F5D7231-4P, F5D7231-4) to a Belkin Wireless G Range
Extender/Access Point (model F5D7130). Bridging with access points
of other manufacturers is not supported at this time. You can use the
bridge mode to extend the range of your wireless network, or add
an extension of your network in another area of your office or home
without running cables.
Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface
Adding Another Network Segment Wirelessly
Bridging an Access Point to your Wireless Router allows you to add
another network segment in another area in the home or office without
running wires. Connecting a network switch or hub to the Access
Point’s RJ45 jack will allow a number of computers connected to the
switch access to the rest of the network.

Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface
Setting Up a Bridge Between your Wireless Router and a
Secondary Access Point
Bridging your Belkin Router to a secondary Access Point requires that
you access the Router’s Advanced Setup Utility and enter the MAC
address of the Access Point in the appropriate area. There are also a
few other requirements. PLEASE BE SURE TO FOLLOW THE STEPS BELOW,
CAREFULLY.
1.
Find the Access Point’s MAC address on the bottom of the
Access Point. There are two MAC addresses on the bottom label.
You will need the MAC address named “WLAN MAC Address”.
The MAC address starts with 0030BD or 001150 and is followed
by six other numbers or letters (i.e. 0030BD-XXXXXX). Write the
MAC address below. Go to the next step.

3. Place your secondary Access Point within range of your Wireless
Router and near the area where you want to extend the range
or add the network segment. Typically, indoor range should be
between 100 and 200 feet.
4.
Connect power to your Access Point. Make sure the Access Point
is on and proceed to the next step.
79

2.
Set your Access Point to the same channel as the Router. By
default, the Router and Access Point channels are set to channel
11 at the factory. If you have never changed the channel, you
don’t need to do anything (for more information on changing
channels, see page 47 of this manual).
Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface
5.
From a computer already connected to your Router, access the
Advanced Setup Utility by opening your browser. In the address
bar, type in “192.168.2.1”. Do not type in “www” or “http://”
before the number. Note: If you have changed your Router’s IP
address, use that IP address.
6.
You will see the Router’s user interface in the browser window.
Click “Wireless Bridge” (2) on the left-hand side of the screen.
You will see the following screen.
