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 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:
http://www°microsoft°com/downloads/details°aspx?FamilyID=009d8425-
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
wireless products°

Problem:
I am having difficulty setting up Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security
on a Belkin client card (Wireless Network Card or Adapter)°
Solution:
The client card must use the same key as the G Wireless Router or
access point° For instance, if your Wireless Router or access point uses
the key 00112233445566778899AABBCC, then the client card must be
set to the exact same key°
1°
Double-click the “Signal Indicator” icon to bring up the “Wireless
Network Utility” screen° The “Advanced” button will allow you to view
and configure more options of your client card°
2°
Once the “Advanced” button is clicked, the Belkin Wireless LAN Utility
will appear° This Utility will allow you to manage all the advanced
features of the Belkin client card°
3°
Under the “Wireless Network Properties” tab, select a network name
from the “Available Networks” list and click the “Properties” button°
4°
Under “Data Encryption”, select “WEP”°
5°
Ensure the box “The key is provided for me automatically” at the
bottom is unchecked° If you are using this computer to connect to a
corporate network, please consult your network administrator if this
box needs to be checked°
6°
Type your WEP key in the “Network key” box°
IMPORTANT:
A WEP key is a combination of numbers and letters
from A–F and 0–7° For 128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26 keys° This
network key needs to match the key you assign to your G Wireless
Router or access point°
