Troubleshooting I am having difficulty setting up Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security on a Belkin client card. The client card must use the same key as the Router. For instance, if your Router uses the key 00112233445566778899AABBCC, then the client card must be set to the exact same key. 1. Double-click the Signal Indicator icon to bring up the “Wireless Network” screen. 2. The “Advanced” button will allow you to view and configure more options of the card. 3. Once the “Advanced” button is clicked, the Belkin Wireless LAN Utility will appear. This Utility will allow you to manage all the advanced features of the Belkin Wireless Card. Under the “Wireless Network Properties” tab, select a network name from the “Available Networks” list and click the “Properties” button. 5. Under “Data Encryption”, select “WEP”. 6. Ensure the check box “The 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. 7. 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. This network key needs to match the key you assign to your Router. For example: C3030FAF4BB2C3D44BC3D4E7E4 = 128-bit key 8. Click “OK”, and then “Apply” to save the settings. If you are NOT using a Belkin wireless client card, please consult the manufacturer’s user manual for that wireless client card. 90 10 section 4. Troubleshooting Do Belkin products support WPA/WPA2? Note: To use WPA security, all your clients must be upgraded to drivers and software that support it. At the time of this FAQ publication, a security patch download is available, for free, from Microsoft. This patch works only with the Windows XP operating system. Download the patch here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details. You also need to download the latest driver for your Belkin Wireless 802.11g Desktop or Notebook Network Card from the Belkin support site. Other operating systems are not supported at this time. Microsoft’s patch only supports devices with WPA-enabled drivers such as Belkin 802.11g products. Download the latest driver at http://www.belkin.com/support I am having difficulty setting up Wireless Protected Access (WPA) security on my Belkin Router for a home network. 1. From the “Security Mode” drop-down menu, select “WPA-PSK (no server)”. 2. For “Encryption Technique”, select “TKIP” or “AES”. This setting will have to be identical on the clients that you set up. 3. Enter your pre-shared key. This can be from eight to 63 characters and can be letters, numbers, symbols, or spaces. This same key must be used on all of the clients that you set up. For example, your PSK might be something like: “Smith family network key”. 4. Click “Apply Changes” to finish. You must now set all clients to match these settings. 91 Troubleshooting I am having difficulty setting up Wireless Protected Access (WPA) security on a Belkin wireless client card for a home network. Clients must use the same key that the Router uses. For instance, if the key is “Smith Family Network Key” in the Router, the clients must also use that same key. 1.

Click “OK, then “Apply” to save the settings. 92 10 section Important: WPA-PSK is a mixture of numbers and letters Troubleshooting I am NOT using a Belkin client card for a home network and I am having difficulty setting up Wireless Protected Access (WPA) security. If you are not using a Belkin Wireless Desktop or Wireless Notebook Network Card that is not equipped with WPA-enabled software, a file from Microsoft called “Windows XP Support Patch for Wireless Protected Access” is available for free download. Download the patch from Microsoft by searching the knowledge base for Windows XP WPA. Note: The file that Microsoft has made available works only with Windows XP. Other operating systems are not supported at this time. You also need to ensure that the wireless card’s manufacturer supports WPA and that you have downloaded and installed the latest driver from their support site. Supported Operating Systems: • Windows XP Professional • Windows XP Home Edition 1. Under Windows XP, click “Start > Control Panel > Network Connections”. 2. Right-clicking on the “Wireless Networks” tab will display the following screen. Ensure the “Use Windows to configure my wireless network settings” check box is checked. 93 Troubleshooting 3.

Note: Select WPA (with radius server) if you are using this computer to 5. Select “TKIP” or “AES” under “Date Encryption”. This setting will have to be identical to the Router that you set up. 6. Type in your encryption key in the “Network key” box. Important: Enter your pre-shared key. This can be from eight to 63 characters and can be letters, numbers, or symbols. This same key must be used on all of the clients that you set up. 7. Click “OK” to apply settings. What’s the difference between 802.11g and draft 802.11n? Currently there are three commonly used 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, 802.11g, can transmit information up to 54Mbps; 802.11a also supports up to 54Mbps, but in the 5GHz frequency; and 802.11n draft specification can connect at up to 300Mbps. See the chart on the next page for more detailed information. 94 10 section connect to a corporate network that supports an authentication server such as a radius server.
