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.

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.

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, see the “Connecting to a Secure Wi-Fi Network” section.
