adding Computers to Your network
Wireless devices such as computers, network printers, and gaming
systems can connect to your router with a few simple steps.
manual setup
You can manually add additional computers or
wireless devices to your network.
1. locate the wireless > network > connections option
on your computer or wireless device.
2. select your Belkin router from the list of available networks. You
can identify your Belkin router by locating the network name
(ssid) from the card located underneath the foot of your router.
3. enter your network password (located on your network information card).
Your wireless device will take a few moments to connect to your
network. if the connection is not made the first time, try this process
again. if you still have difficulty connecting to your network after
trying this process a few times, see the “troubleshooting” section
in this manual for help with connecting to your network.
note: in some cases you may be prompted to select the security
type. it is printed on the card for your convenience.
Using the Wps button
1. start WPs Push Button Connection (WPs PBC) on your computer
or other Wi-Fi device that you would like to connect wirelessly to your
router. often there will be a button for this purpose in software that
came with the device, or a physical “WPs” button on the device itself.
2. Within two minutes, press the WPs button on your router.
the WPs indicator will blink green while it listens for your Wi-Fi device. once
a connection is established, the light will turn green for about 5 minutes
and then go out. if a connection is not established, the light will blink green
for 2 minutes and 30 seconds. You may repeat the process to try again.
You can repeat this process for each WPs-enabled
device you’d like to add to your network.
