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 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11a, and
draft 802.11n?
Currently there are four levels of 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°11b, transmits
information at 11Mbps; 802°11a and 802°11g work at 54Mbps; and
draft 802°11n works at 108Mbps° See the chart on the next page for
more detailed information°
