Troubleshooting
Problem:
I am having difficulty setting up Wireless Protected Access (WPA)
security on a Belkin Wireless Router (or Belkin Access Point) for a
home network.
Solution:
1.
From the “Security Mode” drop-down menu, select “WPA-PSK
(no server)”.
2.
For “Encryption Technique”, select “TKIP” or “AES”. This setting
will have to be identical on the clients that you set up.
3.
Enter your pre-shared key. This can be from eight to 63
characters and can be letters, numbers, symbols, or spaces.
This same key must be used on all of the clients that you set up.
For example, your PSK might be something like: “Smith family
network key”.
4.
Click “Apply Changes” to finish. You must now set all clients to
match these settings.
Problem:
I am having difficulty setting up Wireless Protected Access (WPA)
security on a Belkin wireless client card for a home network.
Solution:
Clients must use the same key that the Wireless Router (or Access
Point) uses. For instance, if the key is “Smith Family Network Key”
in the Wireless Router (or Access Point), the clients must also use
that same key.
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.
Once the “Advanced” button is clicked, the Belkin Wireless
Utility will appear. This Utility will allow you to manage all the
advanced features of the Belkin Wireless Card.
