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.

3.
Under the “Wireless Networks” tab, click the “Configure” button
and you will see the following screen.
4.
For a home or small business user, select “WPA-PSK” under
“Network Administration”.
Note:
Select WPA (with radius server) if you are using this computer to
connect to a corporate network that supports an authentication server
such as a radius server. Please consult your network administrator for
further information.
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.
