Configuring your Card to use Security

At this point, you should already have your wireless router (or access point) set to use WPA or WEP. In order for you to gain wireless connection, you will need to set your N1 Wireless Notebook Card to use the same security settings.

Changing the Wireless Security Settings

The Belkin N1 Wireless Notebook Card supports the latest WPA security feature as well as the legacy WEP security standard. By default, wireless security is disabled.

To enable security, you will first need to determine which standard is used by the router (or access point). (See your wireless router’s or access point’s manual for directions on how to access the security settings.)

To access the security settings on your Card, click the “My Connections” tab and point to the connection for which you want to change security settings. Click “Edit” to change settings.

WEP Setup

64-Bit WEP Encryption

1.Select “WEP” from the “Data Encryption” drop-down menu.

2.After selecting your WEP encryption mode, you can enter your key by typing in the hex key manually.

A hex (hexadecimal) key is a combination of numbers and letters from A–F and 0–9. For 64-bit WEP, you need to enter 10 hex keys.

For instance:

AF 0F 4B C3 D4 = 64-bit WEP key
