Troubleshooting

Problem:

I am having difficulty setting up Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security on a

Belkin client card.

Solution:

The client card must use the same key as the Wireless Router (or access point). For instance, if your Wireless Router (or access point) uses the key 0011223344556677 8899AABBCC, 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” screen.

2.The “Advanced” button will allow you to view and configure more options of your card.

3.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 Wireless Card.

4.Under the “Wireless Network Properties” tab, select a network name from the “Available Networks” list and click the “Properties” button.

5.Under “Data Encryption”, select “WEP”.

6.Ensure that the check 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.

7.Type your WEP key in the “Network key” box.

Important: A WEP key is a mixture of numbers and letters from A-F and 0-9. For 128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26 keys. This network key needs to match the key you assign to your Wireless Router (or access point).

For example:

C3 03 0F AF 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 E4 = 128-bit key

8.Click “OK”, and then “Apply” to save the settings.

If you are not using a Belkin wireless client card, please consult the manufacturer’s user manual for that wireless client card.
