Please see Manual Setup Using Your Browser earlier in this manual for more information. Belkin Setup cannot find my Router. If Belkin Setup is not able to communicate with your Router during the installation process, please check the following items. 1. Make sure that the wireless hardware on your computer is turned on, if available. 2. Try connecting your computer to one of the four wired ports on the Router with an Ethernet cable. 3. Ensure that the Router is on. The front-panel light should be on. 4. Unplug the Routers power supply for 10 seconds, then plug it back in. 5. There may be firewall software on your computer preventing an outgoing connection. You may choose to temporarily disable this software before attempting setup. If Belkin Setup still cannot find the Router, you might choose to do a manual setup. Refer to Manually Configuring Network Settings in this manual for details. 35 Belkin Setup completed installation, but I cannot browse the Web. The light on the front of my Router is blinking amber. 1. Make sure the Router is connected to your modem with an Ethernet cable via the Routers one WAN (modem) port. 2. Unplug the modem from its power source and make sure that it goes dark. Then reapply power to the modem. 3. Unplug your Routers power supply, wait 10 seconds, and plug it back in. This will cause the Router to try to reestablish communication with the modem. TROUBLESHOOTING, SUPPORT, AND WARRANTY Belkin Setup cannot connect my Router to the Internet. If Belkin Setup is not able to connect the Router to the Internet, please check the following items:

1. Use the troubleshooting suggestions within Belkin Setup. 2. If your ISP requires a user name and password, make sure that you have typed in your user name and password correctly. Some user names require that the ISPs domain may be at the end of the name. Example: myname@myisp.com. The @myisp.com part of the user name may need to be typed as well as your user name. 3. If you continue to have no Internet connection, refer to Manually Configuring Network Settings in this manual for an alternative setup method. 36 I cant connect to the Internet wirelessly. If the light on the front of the Router is solid blue, then your Router is connected to the Internet. You may not be connected to the Routers wireless network. Please refer to Adding Computers to Your Network in this manual for instructions. If your Windows XP computer is running SP2, you will not be able to set up the Router via the wireless setup process. You will need to either update to Windows XP SP3 or complete the setup via a wired connection. TROUBLESHOOTING, SUPPORT, AND WARRANTY Belkin Setup completed installation, but I cannot browse the Web. The light on the front of my Router is solid amber. 1. Use the troubleshooting suggestions within Belkin Setup. 2. If your ISP requires a user name and password, make sure that you have typed in your user name and password correctly. Some user names require that the ISPs domain may be at the end of the name. Example: myname@myisp.com. The @myisp.com part of the user name may need to be typed as well as your user name. 3. If you have a static connection, your ISP will have assigned you an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address. Please re-run Belkin Setup and enter this information when a static connection is mentioned. 4. You may need to configure your Router to meet the specific requirements of your ISP. To search our knowledge base for ISP-specific issues, go to:

http://www.belkin.com/support and type in ISP. 5. If you continue to have no Internet connection, refer to Manually Configuring Network Settings in this manual for an alternative setup method. 37 TROUBLESHOOTING, SUPPORT, AND WARRANTY I cant connect to the Internet wirelessly and my network name is not listed in Available Networks. 1. Verify that your Router is on and the front-panel light shows solid blue. 2. If you are far from the Router, you might try moving closer to see if you might have been out of range. 3. Using a computer attached to the Router via a network cable, visit http://router/ and ensure that Broadcast SSID is ON. This setting is found on the Channel and SSID page. My wireless network performance is slow, inconsistent, suffers from weak signal, or Im having difficulty maintaining a VPN connection. Wireless technology is radio-based, which means connectivity and the throughput performance between devices decreases when the distance between devices increases. Other factors that will cause signal degradation (metal is generally the worst culprit) are obstructions such as walls and metal appliances. Note also that connection speed may decrease as you move farther away from the Router. In order to determine if wireless issues are related to range, we suggest temporarily moving the computer within 10 feet from the Router if possible. Changing the wireless channelDepending on local wireless traffic and interference, switching the wireless channel of your network can improve performance and reliability. See the section titled Changing the Wireless Channel for instructions on how to choose other channels. 38 TROUBLESHOOTING, SUPPORT, AND WARRANTY Limiting the wireless transmit rateLimiting the wireless transmit rate can help improve range and connection stability. Most wireless cards have the ability to limit the transmission rate. To change this property in Windows, go to the Windows Control Panel, open Network Connections, and double-click on your wireless cards connection. In the properties dialog, select the Configure button on the General tab, then choose the Advanced tab and select the rate property. Wireless client cards are usually set to automatically adjust the wireless transmit rate for you, but doing so can cause periodic disconnects when the wireless signal is too weak; as a rule, slower transmission rates are more stable. Experiment with different connection rates until you find the best one for your environment. Note that all available transmission rates should be acceptable for browsing the Internet. For more assistance, see your wireless cards user manual. Ive installed this new Router and some of my network clients

(computers, game consoles, etc.) are now unable to connect. Your new Router came pre-configured with a network name and password, found printed on an attached card. All clients must use this network name and password to connect wirelessly to your Router. You will need to find the network settings on your client, select the network name printed on the card from the list of available networks, and enter the password when prompted to join the wireless network. 39 TROUBLESHOOTING, SUPPORT, AND WARRANTY Does the Router support Wireless Protected Access (WPA) security?

Click on the Login button in the top right-hand corner of the screen. You will be asked to enter your password. If you have never set a password, leave the Password field blank and click Submit. 5. Click Apply Changes to finish. Your wireless connection is now encrypted. Each computer using your wireless network will need to use the new key. Note: If you are configuring the Router over a wireless connection, you will have to re-connect to the Router after changing any security settings. Note: Some older networking hardware supports only WEP encryption. If your older computers cannot connect to your network, try 128-bit or 64-bit WEP, or seek software updates from their manufacturers. 2. Click Wireless in the left-hand menu. Then click Security just below that. 3. Select the WPA/WPA2 option. 4. Enter a password. This can be from 863 characters of your choice, including spaces and punctuation, OR a 64-digit hexadecimal number (using only the numbers 09 and letters AF). 40 TROUBLESHOOTING, SUPPORT, AND WARRANTY I am having difficulty setting up Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security on my Router. 1.
