Cloning your MAC address
Belkin provides the ability to clone (copy) the MAC address
of the computer into the Router. This MAC address, in
turn, will be seen by the ISP's system as the original MAC
address and will allow the connection to work.
If you are not sure if your ISP needs to see the original MAC
address, simply clone the MAC address of the computer
that was originally connected to the modem. Cloning the
address will not cause any problems with your network.
To Clone your MAC address, make sure that you are using the
computer which was ORIGINALLY CONNECTED to your modem
before the Router was installed. Click the “Clone” button and click
Apply Changes”. Your MAC address is now cloned to the Router.

Conguring Basic Wireless Settings
You can view and specify the wireless security settings of your Router.
Setup steps:
Open a Web browser on the computer.
In the address bar of the Web browser, type http://192.168.2.1.
Click “Login” in the upper right corner of the page. The Router
does not ship with a password, so just click “Submit.
Click on “Channel and SSID” in the left column
under theWireless” heading.
Configure the following parameters.
SSID: Set the wireless network name. The SSID can contain up to 32
alphanumeric characters. The default SSID is “belkin.###”.
Broadcast SSID: If checked, the Router broadcasts its SSID in the
wireless network, so that wireless clients can scan the SSID and
access the wireless network under the SSID. The check box is selected
by default. If the check box is cleared, only devices that know the
USING YOUR ROUTER
23
correct SSID can connect to the Router.
For the remaining settings, use the defaults.
The default channel is Auto.
It is unnecessary to change the wireless channel unless you notice
interference problems with another nearby wireless Router or access
point. Select a channel that is not being used by any other nearby
wireless networks.
The default mode is 802.11b/g/n.
If you do not know which mode to use, select 802.11b/g/n.
The default bandwidth is 20/40MHz.
The default protected mode is Off.
In most situations, best performance is achieved with Protected Mode
Off. If you are operating in an environment with HEAVY 802.11b traffic
or interference, best performance may be achieved with Protected
Mode On.
The default 802.11e/WMM QoS mode is On.
QoS prioritizes important data on your network such as multimedia
content and voice-over-IP (VoIP) so it will not be interfered by other data
being sent over the network.
Click “Apply Changes”.

TROUBLESHOOTING

I cannot browse the Web.
Make sure the Router is connected to your modem with an Ethernet
cable via the Router’s one WAN (modem) port.
Unplug the modem from its power source and make sure that it goes
dark. Then reapply power to the modem.
Unplug your Route’s power supply, wait 10 seconds, and plug it back
in. This will cause the Router to try to reestablish communication with
the modem.
I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly.
The Power and WLAN lights are solid green and your Router is
connected to the Internet. However, you cannot connect to the Router’s
wireless network. Please refer toAdding Computers to Your Network
in this manual for instructions.
I can’t connect to the Internet wireless and my network name is
not listed in Available Networks.
Verify that your Router is on and the Power, WLAN, and WAN lights on
the front panel show solid green.
If you are far from the Router, you might try moving closer to see if you
might have been out of range.
Using a computer attached to the Router via a network cable, visit
http://router/ and ensure that “Broadcast SSID” is On. This setting is
found on the “Channel and SSID” page.
My wireless network performance is slow, inconsistent, suffers
from weak signal, or I’m having difficulty maintaining a VPN
connection.
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. Visit http://router/ and choose
other channels on the “Channel and SSID” page under theWireless”
heading.
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 disconnections
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
TROUBLESHOOTING
40
transmission rates should be acceptable for browsing the Internet. For
more assistance, see your wireless card’s user manual.
I’ve installed this new Router and some of my network clients
(computers, game consoles, ect) are now unable to connect.
Your new Router came pre-configured with a network name and
password, found printed on an attached card. All clients must use this
network name and password to connect wirelessly to your Router. You
will need to find the network settings on your client, select the network
name printed on the card from the list of available networks, and enter
the password when prompted to join the wireless network.
Does the Route support Wireless Protected Access (WPA)
security?
The Router ships with WPA/WPA2 security turned on. Windows XP and
some older network hardware may require a software update to support
WPA/ WPA2.
I am having difficulty setting up WPA security on my Router.
Log in to your Router by visiting http://router/ with your Web browser.
Click on the “Login” button in the top right-hand corner of the screen.
You will be asked to enter your password. If you have never set a
password, leave the “Password” field blank and click “Submit”.
Click “Security” under the “Wireless” heading in the left-hand menu.
Select the “WPA-PSK+WPA2-PSK” option.
Enter a password. This can be from 8-63 characters of your choice,
including spaces and punctuation, OR a 64-digit hexadecimal number
(using only the numbers 0-9 and letters A-F).
Click “Apply Changes” to finish. Your wireless connection is now
encrypted. Each computer using your wireless network will need to use
the new key.
Note: If you are configuring the Router over a wireless connection,
you will have to re-connect to the Router after changing any security
settings.
Note: Some older networking hardware supports only WEP encryption.
If your older computers cannot connect to your network, try 128-bit or
64-bit WEP, or seek software updates from their manufacturers.
