link led is blinking slowly; I cannot connect
to a wireless network or the Internet .
If your Adapter appears to be functioning properly, but you cannot
connect to a network or you have a red wireless icon at the bottom of
your screen, the problem may be that there is a mismatch between the
network name (SSID) settings in your wireless network properties .
Check the SSID settings to see if they match . The SSID
is case-sensitive and the spelling on each computer
must be exactly the same in order for the Adapter to
connect to the wireless router (or access point) .
note:
To check the SSID settings or look for an available
network, double-click the Signal Indicator icon to bring up the
“Wireless Networks” screen . Click “Add” if you do not see the
network you are trying to connect to and type in the SSID .
For more information about setting up an SSID, please reference
your router manufacturer’s user manual . If issues persist even
at close range, please contact Belkin Technical Support .
link led is solid but I cannot connect to the Internet .
If you have a signal but can’t get online or obtain an IP address, the
problem may be that there is a mismatch between the encryption key
settings in your computer and wireless router (or access point) . Check
the WEP, WPA, or WPA2 key settings to see if they match . The key is
case-sensitive and the spelling on each computer and wireless router
(or access point) must be exactly the same in order for the Adapter
to connect to the router . For more information about encryption,
please see the “Connecting to a Secure Wi-Fi Network” section .
If issues persist even at close range, please
