Using the Belkin Wireless Network Utility

Setting up Wireless Network Profiles

Using Profiles allows you to save configurations for different wireless networks, for instance at home or at work without having to reconfigure your connection each time you connect. This allows you to quickly change from one profile to another profile without having to remember the particular settings of a certain network.

Step 1. To create a new wireless network profile, click on the “Profiles” tab. Click “Add” to open the new profile screen. Type in a name for the profile. You should pick something easy to remember like “Work” for your work network, or “Home” for your home network. Click “Next” to continue.
