Troubleshooting

If you are using a Belkin 802.11b Wireless Router, the default name should be “WLAN”.

If you’re not using a Belkin Router, please consult your router manufacturer’s user manual for the default name.

The name of your wireless network appears in “Network List”

If the correct network name is listed in the “Network List”, please follow the steps below to connect wirelessly:

1.Click on the correct network name in the “Network List” to connect to the network.

2.If the network has security (encryption) enabled, you will need to enter the network key. For more information regarding security, see the “Securing your Wi-Fi Network” section in this User Manual.

3.Within a few seconds, the tray icon in the lower,

right-hand corner of your screen should turn green, indicating a successful connection to the network.

If you are still unable to access the Internet after connecting to the wireless network, please contact Belkin Technical Support.

The name of your wireless network DOES NOT appear in “Network List”

If the correct network name is not listed, check the SSID settings to see if they match. The SSID is case-sensitive and the spelling on each computer must be exactly the same in order for the Card to connect to the wireless router or access point.

NOTE: To check the SSID settings or look for an available network, double-click the Signal Indicator icon to bring up the “Network List” window. Click “Create” if you do not see the network you are trying to connect to and type in the SSID. For more information about setting up a SSID, please reference your router manufacturer’s user manual. If issues persist even at close range, please contact Belkin Technical Support.
