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 Wireless
Router or Access Point.
For example:
C3030FAF4BB2C3D44BC3D4E7E4 = 128-bit key
8.
Click “OK”, and then “Apply” to save the settings.
For non-Belkin wireless client cards please consult the manufacturer
for that wireless client card’s user manual
Problem:
Do Belkin products support WPA?
Solution
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:
425-ce2b-47a4-abec-274845dc9e91&displaylang=en
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://web.belkin.com/support
for the following products:
F5D7000, F5D7001, F5D7010, F5D7011, F5D7230-4,
F5D7231-4, F5D7130

Troubleshooting
Problem:
I am having difficulty setting up Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
security on a Belkin Wireless Router or Belkin Access Point for a
home network.
Solution:
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 8 to 63 characters
and can be letters, numbers, or 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.

Problem:
I am having difficulty setting up Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
security on a Belkin Wireless Router or Belkin Access Point for
a business.
Solution:
If your network uses a radius server to distribute keys to the clients,
use this setting. This is typically used in a business environment.
1.
From the “Security Mode” drop-down menu, select “WPA
(with 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 the IP address of the radius server into the “Radius
Server” fields.
4.
Enter the radius key into the “Radius Key” field
5.
Enter the key interval. Key interval is how often the keys are
distributed (in packets).
6.
Click “Apply Changes” to finish. You must now set all clients to
match these settings.

from the “Available networks” list and click the “Properties” button
