Configuring your Adapter to use Security

At this point, you should already have your wireless router (or access
point) set to use WPA or WEP. In order for you to gain wireless
connection, you must set your N Wireless USB Adapter to use the
same security settings.

Changing the Wireless Security Settings

The Belkin N Wireless USB Adapter supports the latest WPA security
feature as well as the legacy WEP security standard. By default,
wireless security is disabled.
To enable security, you will first must determine which standard is
used by the router (or access point). (See your wireless router’s or
access point’s manual for directions on how to access the security
settings.)

To access the security settings on your Adapter, click the “My Connections”
tab and point to the connection for which you want to change security
settings. Click “Edit” to change settings.
