I am having difficulty setting up Wireless Protected Access (WPA) security on my Belkin Router for a home network.

1.From the “Security Mode” drop-down menu, select “WPA-PSK (no server)”..

2.For “Encryption Technique”, select “TKIP” or “AES”.. This setting will have to be identical on the clients that you set up..

3.Enter your pre-shared key.. This can be from eight to 63 characters and can be letters, numbers, symbols, or spaces.. This same key must be used on all of the clients that you set up.. For example, your PSK might be something like: “Smith family network key”..

4.Click “Apply Changes” to finish.. You must now set all clients to match these settings..

I am having difficulty setting up Wireless Protected Access (WPA) security on a Belkin wireless client card for a home network.

Clients must use the same key that the Router uses.. For instance, if the key is “Smith Family Network Key” in the Router, the clients must also use that same key..

1.Double-click the Signal Indicator icon to bring up the “Wireless Network” screen.. The “Advanced” button will allow you to view and configure more options of your card..

2.Once the “Advanced” button is clicked, the Belkin Wireless Utility will appear.. This Utility will allow you to manage all the advanced features of the Belkin Wireless Card..

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

4.Under “Network Authentication”, select “WPA-PSK (no server)..

5.Type your WPA key in the “Network key” box..

Important: WPA-PSK is a mixture of numbers and letters from A-Z and 0-9.. For WPA-PSK you can enter eight to 63 characters.. This network key needs to match the key you assign to your Router..

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