Troubleshooting

I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly

If you are unable to connect to the Internet from a wireless computer, please check the following items:

1.Look at the lights on your Wireless Router. If you’re using a Belkin Wireless Router, the lights should be as follows:

•The “Power” light should be on.

•The “Connected” light should be on, and not blinking.

•The “WAN” light should be either on or blinking.

If your Belkin Wireless Router’s lights have the above characteristics, go to number 2 below.

If this is NOT the case, please contact Belkin technical support

If you are not using a Belkin router, consult that routers manufacturers user guide.

2.Open your wireless utility software by clicking on the icon in the system tray at the bottom right-hand corner of the screen. If you’re using a Belkin wireless card, the tray icon should look like this (the icon may be red or green):

3.The exact window that opens will vary depending on the model of wireless card you have; however, any of the utilities should have a list of “Available Networks”. Available networks are wireless networks you can connect to.

If you are using a Belkin 802.11b router, “WLAN” is the default name. If you are using a Belkin 802.11g router, the default name should be “Belkin54g”. If using a non-Belkin router, please consult your router manufacturers user manual for the

default name.
