Belkin F5D7230AU4P user manual Supported Operating Systems, Enabling WPA-PSK no server

Troubleshooting

Problem:

I am having difficulty setting up Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) security on a non-Belkin client card for a home network.

Solution:

For non-Belkin WPA Wireless Desktop and Wireless Notebook Network Cards that are not equipped with WPA-enabled software, a file from Microsoft called “Windows XP Support Patch for Wireless Protected Access” is available for free download:

www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=009d8425- ce2b-47a4-abcc-2748dc9e91diplaylang=en

Note: The file that Microsoft has made available works only with Windows XP. Other operating systems are not supported at this time. You also need to ensure that the wireless card manufacturer supports WPA and that you have downloaded and installed the latest driver from their support site.

Supported Operating Systems:

•Windows XP Professional

•Windows XP Home Edition

Enabling WPA-PSK (no server)

1.Under Windows XP, click “Start > Control Panel > Network Connections”.

2.Right-click on “Wireless Networks” tab will display the following screen. Ensure the “Use Windows to configure my wireless network settings” check box is checked.

3.Under the Wireless Networks tab, click the “Configure” button, and you will see the following screen.

4.For a home or small business user, select “WPA-PSK” under “Network Administration”.

Note: Select WPA (with radius server) if you are using this computer to connect to a corporate network that supports an authentication server such as a radius server, please consult your network administrator for further information.
