Placement of your Wireless Router (or Access Point) 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 100 and 200 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. 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 Adapters or Cards): 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 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 N+ Wireless USB Adapter • 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. Introduction Table of Contents section 10 2. Avoid Obstacles and Interference 3. Cordless Phone Placement 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: If the performance of your wireless network is impaired after attending to the above issues, and you have a cordless phone: • Refrigerators • Washers and/or dryers • Metal cabinets • Large aquariums • Metallic-based, UV-tinted windows • 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. 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). N+ Wireless USB Adapter Introduction Table of Contents section 4. Choose the “Quietest” Channel for your Wireless Network Most online banking websites • Many commercial websites that require a user name and password to access your account N+ Wireless USB Adapter 10 For more information regarding our networking products, visit our website at www.belkin.com/networking or call Belkin Technical Support. Secure connections typically require a user name and password, and are used where security is important. Secure connections include: • 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. 5. Secure Connections, VPNs, and AOL The “Bring Your Own Access” program from America Online (AOL), which lets you use AOL through broadband provided by another cable or DSL service If you continue to have difficulty with Secure Connections, VPNs, and AOL, please review steps 1–4 in the previous pages to be sure you have addressed these issues. For more Belkin wireless networking products, use the detailed Site Survey and wireless channel information included in your User Manual. • 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. 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. Virtual Private Network (VPN) connections, often used to connect remotely to an office network 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. 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 Belkin Wireless Networking 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 • Overview Table of Contents section Product Features The Adapter complies with the IEEE draft-802.11n specification to communicate with other draft-802.11n-compliant wireless devices at up to 300Mbps*.

N+ Wireless USB Adapter 26 USING THE BELKIN WIRELESS NETWORKING UTILITY Table of Contents section Note: When you select a network using encryption, you will first see the simple security screen. Click the “Advanced” button to see other security options (below). 10 Wireless Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a less secure, but more widely adopted wireless security protocol. Depending on the security level (64or 128-bit), the user will be asked to input a 10- or 26-character hex key. A hex key is a combination of letters, a–f, and numbers, 0–9. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is the new standard in the wireless security. However, not all wireless cards and adapters support this technology. Please check your wireless adapter’s user manual to check if it supports WPA. Instead of a hex key, WPA uses only passphrases, which are much easier to remember. The following section, intended for the home, home-office, and smalloffice user, presents a few different ways to maximize the security of your wireless network. N+ Wireless USB Adapter 27 USING THE BELKIN WIRELESS NETWORKING UTILITY Table of Contents section 10 At the time of publication, four encryption methods are available: WEP Encryption Methods: WEP is a common protocol that adds security to all Wi-Fi-compliant wireless products. WEP gives wireless networks the equivalent level of privacy protection as a comparable wired network. Name 64-bit Wired Equivalent Privacy 128-bit Encryption Wi-Fi Protected Access Acronym 64-bit WEP 128-bit WEP WPA-TKIP/AES WPA2-AES (or just WPA) (or just WPA2) Security Good Better Best Best Features Static keys Static keys Dynamic key encryption and mutual authentication Dynamic key encryption and mutual authentication Encryption keys based on RC4 algorithm (typically 40-bit keys) Added security over 64-bit WEP using a key length of 104 bits, plus 24 additional bits of systemgenerated data TKIP (temporal key integrity protocol) added so that keys are rotated and encryption is strengthened AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) does not cause any throughput loss N+ Wireless USB Adapter Wi-Fi Protected Access 64-Bit WEP 64-bit WEP was first introduced with 64-bit encryption, which includes a key length of 40 bits plus 24 additional bits of system-generated data (64 bits total). Some hardware manufacturers refer to 64-bit as 40-bit encryption. Shortly after the technology was introduced, researchers found that 64-bit encryption was too easy to decode. 128-Bit Encryption As a result of 64-bit WEP’s potential security weaknesses, a more secure method of 128-bit encryption was developed. 128-bit encryption includes a key length of 104 bits plus 24 additional bits of systemgenerated data (128 bits total). Some hardware manufacturers refer to 128-bit as 104-bit encryption. Most of the new wireless equipment in the market today supports both 64-bit WEP and 128-bit WEP encryption, but you might have older equipment that only supports 64-bit WEP. All Belkin wireless products will support both 64-bit WEP and 128-bit encryption. 28 USING THE BELKIN WIRELESS NETWORKING UTILITY Table of Contents section 10 Encryption Keys WPA After selecting either the 64-bit WEP or 128-bit encryption mode, it is critical that you generate an encryption key. If the encryption key is not consistent throughout the entire wireless network, your wireless networking devices will be unable to communicate with one another. You can enter your key by typing in the hex key. A hex (hexadecimal) key is a combination of numbers and letters from A–F and 0–9. For 64-bit WEP, you must enter 10 hex characters. For 128-bit WEP, you must enter 26 hex characters. WPA is a new Wi-Fi standard that improves upon the security features of WEP. To use WPA security, the drivers and software of your wireless equipment must be upgraded to support it. These updates will be found on your wireless vendor’s website. There are three types of WPA security: WPA-PSK (no server), WPA (with radius server), and WPA2. WPA-PSK (no server) uses what is known as a pre-shared key as the network key. A network key is a password that is between eight and 63 characters long. It can be a combination of letters, numbers, or characters. Each client uses the same network key to access the network. Typically, this is the mode that will be used in a home environment. For instance: WPA (with radius server) works best in a business environment, in which a radius server automatically distributes the network key to clients. AF 0F 4B C3 D4 = 64-bit WEP key C3 03 0F AF 0F 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 = 128-bit WEP key WPA2 requires Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) for encryption of data, which offers much greater security than WPA. WPA uses both Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) and AES for encryption. Write down the hex WEP key from your wireless router (or access point) and enter it manually into the hex WEP key table in your Adapter’s configuration screen. Setting up your Belkin Wireless Router (or Access Point) to use Security To start using security, you must first enable WEP or WPA for your wireless router (or access point). For Belkin Wireless Routers (or Access Points), these security features can be configured through the webbased interface. See your wireless router’s (or access point’s) manual for directions on how to access the management interface. IMPORTANT: You must now set all wireless network cards/adapters to match these settings. N+ Wireless USB Adapter 29 USING THE BELKIN WIRELESS NETWORKING UTILITY Table of Contents section 10 Configuring your Adapter to use Security Using Wi-Fi Protected Setup 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 wireless connection, you must set your N+ Wireless USB Adapter to use the same security settings. Wi-Fi Protected Setup is only supported with the Belkin utility on Windows 2000 and XP. When attempting to connect to a WPS-enabled network, the following screen will appear: Changing the Wireless Security Settings Your Belkin N+ Wireless USB Adapter supports advanced security technology, including Wi-Fi Protected Access™ 2 (WPA2™), Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), and Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (WPS), which simplifies the setup of a wireless network. WPS uses familiar methodologies, such as typed Personal Identification Number (PIN) entry and push-button network-name configuration. This automatically enables strong WPA/WPA2 data encryption and authentication. N+ Wireless USB Adapter 30 1. Personal Identification Number (PIN) Method: In this method, your N+ Wireless USB Adapter generates a PIN to be entered into your router. 2. Connect to an Open AP: Select this option if your router supports WPS, but does not currently have security enabled. 3. Advanced Configuration Method: For manual connection to a secured network. USING THE BELKIN WIRELESS NETWORKING UTILITY Table of Contents section WPS uses WPA2 (described below) for encryption. It does not provide additional security. Instead, it standardizes the method for securing your wireless network. On your client utility, WPS-enabled networks are denoted with the key icon. You may use either the PBC method or PIN method to allow a device access to your wireless network. The two methods work as follows: 10 You will see the following message if the procedure is initiated from the router: PBC: Push and hold the WPS button located on your USB Adapter for two seconds. (Alternatively, you may click the “WPS Connect” button on the Belkin utility instead of the physical push button.) Then, complete the WPS procedure on the router within two minutes. Your client will automatically exchange the security information and be added to your wireless network. The PBC method can also be initiated from the router; however, it is recommended to start the procedure from your USB Adapter. If the process is started from the client, you will see this message: You will see the following message during the connection process: The client will be automatically enrolled into your wireless network within two minutes. N+ Wireless USB Adapter 31 USING THE BELKIN WIRELESS NETWORKING UTILITY Table of Contents section PIN: Your notebook computer has an 8-digit PIN that is associated with WPS.

Data transfer is sometimes slow. 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, WPA, or WPA2 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 “Securing your Wi-Fi Network” on page xx of this User Manual. 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 to 200 feet. Note also that connection speed may decrease as you move farther from the wireless router (or access point). If issues persist even at close range, please contact Belkin Technical Support. 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” on page 2 of this User Manual. If issues persist even at close range, please contact Belkin Technical Support. N+ Wireless USB Adapter 42 Troubleshooting Table of Contents section Signal strength is poor. 10 Limiting the wireless transmit rate – Limiting the wireless transmit rate can help improve the maximum wireless range, and connection stability. Most wireless cards have the ability to limit the transmission rate. To change this property, go to the Windows Control Panel, open “Network Connections” and double-click on your Adapter’s connection. In the “Properties” dialog, select the “Configure” button on the “General” tab (Windows 98 users will have to select the USB Network Adapter in the list box and then click “Properties”), then choose the “Advanced” tab and select the rate property. Wireless client cards are usually set to automatically adjust the wireless transmit rate for you, but doing so can cause periodic disconnects when the wireless signal is too weak; as a rule, slower transmission rates are more stable. Experiment with different connection rates until you find the best one for your environment; note that all available transmission rates should be acceptable for browsing the Internet. For more assistance, see your wireless card’s literature. If issues persist even at close range, please contact Belkin Technical Support.
