Troubleshooting
I am having difficulty setting up Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
security on a Belkin wireless client card for a business.
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.
The “Advanced” button will allow you to view and configure more
options of the 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 “Network Authentication” select “WPA”.
6.
In the “Authentication” tab, select the settings that are indicated
by your network administrator.
7.
Click “OK, then “Apply” to save the settings.
I am having difficulty setting up Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
security on a non-Belkin client card for a home network.
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
