2) If your ISP requires a user name and password, make sure that

you have typed in your user name and password correctly.

Some user names require that the ISP’s domain may be at the

“@myisp.com” part of the user name may need to be typed as

well as your user name.

3) If you continue to have no Internet connection, refer to

“Manually Configuring Network Settings” in this manual for an

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.

Note also that connection speed may decrease as you move

farther away from the Router.

In order to determine if wireless issues are related to range, we

suggest temporarily moving the computer within 10 feet from

the Router if possible.

Changing the wireless channel—Depending on local wireless traffic and

interference, switching the wireless channel of your network can

improve performance and reliability. See the section titled

“Changing the Wireless Channel” for instructions on how to

choose other channels.

Limiting the wireless transmit rate—Limiting the wireless transmit rate can

help improve range and connection stability. Most wireless

cards have the ability to limit the transmission rate. To change

this property in Windows, go to the Windows Control Panel,

open “Network Connections”, and double-click on your wireless

card’s connection. In the properties dialog, select the

“Configure” button on the “General” tab, 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 user manual.

(except for shipping charges for the product). Belkin reserves the right to

discontinue any of its products without notice, and disclaims any limited warranty

to repair or replace any such discontinued products. In the event that Belkin is

another product from Belkin.com in an amount equal to the purchase price of the

natural use.

What is not covered by this warranty?

All above warranties are null and void if the Belkin product is not provided to

Belkin for inspection upon Belkin’s request at the sole expense of the purchaser,

or if Belkin determines that the Belkin product has been improperly installed,

altered in any way, or tampered with. The Belkin Product Warranty does not

protect against acts of God such as flood, lightning, earthquake, war, vandalism,

theft, normal-use wear and tear, erosion, depletion, obsolescence, abuse,

damage due to low voltage disturbances (i.e. brownouts or sags), non-authorized

program, or system equipment modification or alteration.

the damaged equipment to Belkin, Belkin may designate, in its sole discretion, an

equipment repair facility to inspect and estimate the cost to repair such

equipment. The cost, if any, of shipping the equipment to and from such repair

facility and of such estimate shall be borne solely by the purchaser. Damaged

equipment must remain available for inspection until the claim is finalized.

Whenever claims are settled, Belkin reserves the right to be subrogated under

any existing insurance policies the purchaser may have.

How state law relates to the warranty.

THIS WARRANTY CONTAINS THE SOLE WARRANTY OF BELKIN. THERE

ARE NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR, EXCEPT AS REQUIRED

BY LAW, IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION

OF QUALITY, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR

PURPOSE, AND SUCH IMPLIED WARRANTIES, IF ANY, ARE LIMITED IN

DURATION TO THE TERM OF THIS WARRANTY.

Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so

the above limitations may not apply to you.

IN NO EVENT SHALL BELKIN BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL,

DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR MULTIPLE DAMAGES SUCH AS,

BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST BUSINESS OR PROFITS ARISING OUT OF THE

SALE OR USE OF ANY BELKIN PRODUCT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE
