Troubleshooting
Note to Mac users: Original Apple AirPort products support 64-bit encryption
only. Apple AirPort 2 products can support 64-bit or 128-bit encryption. Please
check your Apple AirPort product to see which version you are using. If you
cannot configure your network with 128-bit encryption, try 64-bit encryption.
Problem:
I am having difficulty setting up Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security on a
Belkin Wireless Card.
Solution:
The Wireless Card must use the same key as the Wireless Router or Access
Point. For instance, if your Wireless Router or Access Point uses the key 001122
33445566778899AABBCC, then the Wireless Card must be set to the exact same
key.
1. Double-click the “Signal Indicator” icon to bring up the “Wireless Network”
screen.
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 “Data Encryption” select “WEP”.
6. Ensure the check box “The key is provided for me automatically” at the
bottom is unchecked. If you are using this computer to connect to a corporate
network, please consult your network administrator if this box needs to be
checked.
7. Type your WEP key in the “Network key” box.
Important: A WEP key is a mixture of numbers and letters from A–F and 0–9. For
128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26 keys. This network key needs to match the
key you assign to your Wireless Router or Access Point.
For example: C3 03 0F AF 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 E4 = 128-bit key
8. Click “OK”, and then “Apply” to save the settings.
If you are NOT using a Belkin Wireless Card, please consult the manufacturer for
that card’s user manual.
