Typical indoor operating range for your wireless devices is between 100 and 200 feet. In the same way, your wireless connection and performance will degrade somewhat as the distance between your Wireless Router (or Access Point) increases. This may or may not be noticeable to you. As you move further from your Wireless Router (or Access Point), connection speed may decrease. Factors that can weaken signals simply by getting in the way of your networks radio waves are metal appliances or obstructions, and walls. If you have concerns about your networks performance that might be related to range or obstruction factors, try moving the computer to a position between five and ten feet from the Wireless Router (or Access Point), in order to see if distance is the problem. If difficulties persist even at close range, please contact Belkin Technical Support. Placement of your Wireless Networking Hardware Note: While some of the items listed below can affect network performance, they will not prohibit your wireless network from functioning; if you are concerned that your network is not operating at its maximum effectiveness, this checklist may help. 1. Placement of your Wireless Router or Access Point Place your Wireless Router (or Access Point), the central connection point of your network, as close as possible to the center of your wireless network devices. To achieve the best wireless network coverage for your wireless clients, (i.e. computers enabled by Belkin Wireless Notebook Network Cards, Wireless Desktop Network Cards, and Wireless USB Adapters):

Ensure that your Wireless Router (or Access Point) antennas are parallel to each other, and are positioned vertically (toward the ceiling). If your Wireless Router (or Access Point) itself is positioned vertically, point the antennas as much as possible in an upward direction. In multistory homes, place the Wireless Router (or Access Point) on a floor that is as close to the center of the home as possible. This may mean placing the Wireless Router or Access Point on an upper floor. Try not to place the Wireless Router (or Access Point) near a cordless 2.4GHz phone. 2 2 s e c t i o n 1 2 3 4 5 6 Introduction 2. Avoid Obstacles and Interference Avoid placing your Wireless Router (or Access Point) near devices that may emit radio noise, such as microwave ovens. Other objects that can inhibit Wireless communication can include:

Refrigerators Washers and/or dryers Metal cabinets Large aquariums Metallic-based UV tinted windows If your wireless signal seems weak in some spots, make sure that objects such as these are not blocking the signals path between your computers and Wireless Router (or Access Point) 3. Cordless Phone Placement If the performance of your wireless network is impaired after attending to the above issues, and you have a cordless phone:

Try moving cordless phones away from your Wireless Router or Access Point and your wireless-enabled computers Unplug and remove the battery from any cordless phone that operate on the 2.4GHz band (check manufacturers information). If this fixes the problem, your phone may be interfering. If your phone supports channel selection, change the channel on the phone to the furthest channel from your wireless network, as possible. For example, change the phone to channel 1 and move your Wireless Router to channel 11. See your phones user manual for detailed instructions. If necessary, consider switching to a 900MHz or 5GHz cordless phone. 3 3 Introduction Introduction 4. Choose the quietest channel for your wireless network In locations where homes or offices are close together, such as apartment buildings or office complexes, there may be wireless networks nearby that can conflict with yours. Use the Site Survey capabilities of your Wireless LAN Utility to locate any other wireless networks, and move your Wireless Router (or Access Point) and computers to a channel as far away from other networks as possible. Experiment with more than one of the available channels, in order to find the clearest connection and avoid interference from neighboring cordless phones or other wireless devices. Use the detailed Site Survey and wireless channel information included in your User Guide for more information. 5. Secure connections, VPNs, and AOL Secure connections are connections that typically require a user name and password, and are used where security is important. Secure connections include:

Virtual Private Network (VPN) connections, often used to connect remotely to an office network The Bring Your Own Access program from America Online

(AOL), which lets you use AOL through broadband provided by another cable or DSL service Most on-line banking websites Many commercial websites which require a username and password to access your account Secure connections can be interrupted by a computers power management setting, which causes it to go to sleep. The simplest solution to avoid this is to simply reconnect by re-running the VPN or AOL software, or by re-logging into the secure web site. A second alternative is to change your computers power management settings so it does not go to sleep; however, this may not be appropriate for portable computers. To change your power management setting under Windows, see the Power Options item in the Control Panel. 4 4 Introduction If you continue to have difficulty with Secure Connection, VPNs and AOL please review steps 1-4 above to be sure you have addressed these issues. These guidelines should allow you to cover the maximum possible area with your Wireless Router. Should you need to cover an even wider area, we suggest Belkins Wireless Range Extender/Access Point.

This section is intended for the home, home office, and small office user. At the time of publication, three encryption methods are available. Encryption Methods:

Name 64-bit Wired Equivalent Privacy 128-bit Encryption Wi-Fi Protected Access Wi-Fi Protected Access Acronym Security Features 64-bit WEP 128-bit WEP WPA-TKIP WPA-AES Good Better Best Best Static keys Static keys Encryption keys based on RC4 algorithm (typically 40-bit keys) Added security over 64-bit WEP using a key length of 104 bits, plus 24 additional bits of system-

generated data Dynamic key encryption and mutual authentication TKIP (temporal key integrity protocol) added so that keys are rotated and encryption is strengthened Dynamic key encryption and mutual authentication AES

(Advanced Encryption Standard) does not cause any throughput loss. 1 2 3 4 5 6 s e c t i o n 1919 Using the Belkin Wireless LAN Utility WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a common protocol that adds security to all Wi-Fi-compliant wireless products. WEP gives wireless networks the equivalent level of privacy protection as a comparable wired network. 64-Bit WEP 64-bit WEP was first introduced with 64-bit encryption, which includes a key length of 40 bits plus 24 additional bits of system-generated data (64 bits total). Some hardware manufacturers refer to 64-bit as 40-bit encryption. Shortly after the technology was introduced, researchers found that 64-bit encryption was too easy to decode. 128-Bit WEP As a result of 64-bit WEPs potential security weaknesses, a more secure method of 128-bit encryption was developed. 128-bit encryption includes a key length of 104 bits plus 24 additional bits of system-generated data (128 bits total). Some hardware manufacturers refer to 128-bit as 104-bit encryption. Most of the new wireless equipment in the market today supports both 64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption, but you might have older equipment that only supports 64-bit WEP. All Belkin wireless products will support both 64-bit and 128-bit WEP. Encryption Keys After selecting either the 64-bit or 128-bit WEP encryption mode, it is critical that you generate an encryption key. If the encryption key is not consistent throughout the entire wireless network, your wireless networking devices will be unable to communicate with one another. You can enter your key by typing in the hex key manually. A hex

(hexadecimal) key is a mixture of numbers and letters from AF and 09. For 64-bit WEP, you need to enter 10 hex keys. For 128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26 hex keys. 20 20 1 2 3 4 5 6 s e c t i o n Using the Belkin Wireless LAN Utility For instance:

AF0F4BC3D4 = 64-bit WEP key C3030FAF0F4BB2C3D44BC3D4E7 = 128-bit WEP key If you have multiple vendors equipment in your network, the easiest thing to do is to write down the hex WEP key from your wireless router or access point and enter it manually into the hex WEP key table in your Cards configuration screen. WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is a new Wi-Fi standard that improves upon the security features of WEP. To use WPA security, the drivers and software of your wireless equipment must be upgraded to support it. These updates will be found on your wireless vendors website. There are two types of WPA security: WPA-PSK (no server), and WPA (with radius server). WPA-PSK (no server) uses what is known as a pre-shared key as the network key. A network key is a password that is between 8 and 63 characters long. It can be a combination of letters, numbers, or characters. Each client uses the same network key to access the network. Typically, this is the mode that will be used in a home environment. WPA (with radius server) is a system where a radius server distributes the network key to the clients automatically. This is typically found in a business environment. For a list of Belkin wireless products that support WPA, please visit our website at www.belkin.com/networking. 2121 Using the Belkin Wireless LAN Utility Most Wi-Fi products ship with security turned off. So once you have your network working, you need to activate WEP or WPA and make sure all your wireless devices are sharing the same network key. The following diagram shows the effect of not having the correct network key throughout your network. Network Key=

MyPassword Wireless G Desktop Network Card Network Key=

MyPassword Wireless G Router Wireless G Notebook Network Card Network Key=

WRONG Password Wireless G Desktop Network Card The Card cannot access the network because it uses a different network key than the one configured on the wireless router. Using a Hexadecimal Key A hexadecimal key is a mixture of numbers and letters from AF and 09. 64-bit keys are five two-digit numbers. 128-bit keys are 13 two-digit numbers. For instance:

AF 0F 4B C3 D4 = 64-bit key C3 03 0F AF 0F 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 = 128-bit key 22 22 1 2 3 4 5 6 s e c t i o n Using the Belkin Wireless LAN Utility In the boxes below, make up your key by writing in two characters between AF and 09 in each box. You will use this key to program the encryption settings on your Wirelesss Router (or Access Point) and your wireless computers. Setting Up your Belkin Wireless Router or Access Point to Use Security To start using security, you need to first enable WEP or WPA for your wireless router or access point. For Belkin Wireless Routers or Access Points, these security features can be configured by using the web-

based interface. (See your wireless router or access point manual for directions on how to access the management interface.) Changing the Wireless Security Settings The Belkin Wireless G Router and Range Extender/Access Point are equipped with the latest WPA security feature. They also support the legacy WEP security standard. By default, wireless security is disabled. To enable security, you will need to determine which standard you want to use (see page 19). To access the security settings, click Security on the wireless section using the web-based interface. (See your wireless router or access point manual for directions on how to access the security settings.) 2323 Using the Belkin Wireless LAN Utility WEP Setup 64-Bit WEP Encryption 1. Select 64-bit WEP from the drop-down menu. 2. After selecting your WEP encryption mode, you can enter your key by typing in the hex key manually, or you can type in a passphrase in the Passphrase field and click Generate to create a key. A hex (hexadecimal) key is a mixture of numbers and letters from AF and 09. For 64-bit WEP, you need to enter 10 hex keys. For instance:

AF0F4BC3D4 = 64-bit WEP Key 3. Click Apply Changes to finish. Encryption in the wireless router or access point is now set. Each of your computers on your wireless network will now need to be configured with the same security settings. WARNING: If you are using a wireless client to turn on the security settings in your Wireless Router or Access Point, you will temporarily lose your wireless connection until you activate security on your wireless client. Please record the key prior to applying changes in the wireless router or access point. If you dont remember the hex key, your client will be locked out of the wireless router or access point. 24 24 Using the Belkin Wireless LAN Utility 128-Bit WEP Encryption 1.

(f) Client IP Address Shows the IP address of the computer. The IP address is obtained automatically by default. You may set the IP address manually through Windows Networking Properties.

(g) Network Connection Type Shows the current wireless mode the Card is operating in. There are two operating modes: Infrastructure and Ad-Hoc. Infrastructure is the most common mode to operate in. Infrastructure mode is used when connecting your PC to a wireless router or a wireless access point. Ad-Hoc mode is used to connect two or more computers together without the use of a wireless router or an access point.

(h) Radio State Shows whether the radio of your wireless client is enabled or disabled.

(i) Signal Displays the wireless signal strength in decibels (dBm). The decibel scale is negative, so smaller absolute values correspond to stronger signals (i.e. -20 dBm is stronger than -80 dBm). The signal to noise ratio (SNR) is the difference between the signal and the noise (e.g. if the noise is -80 dBm and the signal is -20 dBm, the SNR is 60 dB); the larger the SNR, the better. In general, connections should have an SNR greater than 20 dBm, or the user may experience poor reliability and/or performance. If the signal is less than -50 dBm, the user should consider repositioning their workstation or Access Point, rotating the Access Points antennas, or Limiting their Transmission Rate

(described on page _ of the troubleshooting section of the manual), to ensure a reliable wireless connection.

(j) Noise Displays the intensity of the external noise, on this wireless channel, in decibels (dBm). If the noise is greater than -70 dBm, the user should consider changing the wireless channel used, in their Access Point, to ensure a reliable wireless connection. 3333 Using the Belkin Wireless LAN Utility Monitoring Data Transfer Click on the Statistics tab.

Other factors that will cause signal degradation (metal is generally the worst culprit) are obstructions such as walls and metal appliances. As a result, the typical indoor range of your wireless devices will be between 100 to 200 feet. Note also that connection speed may decrease as you move further from the Wireless Router or Access Point. In order to determine if wireless issues are related to range, we suggest temporarily moving the computer, if possible, to five to ten feet from The Wireless Router (or Access Point). Please see the section titled Placement of your Wireless Networking Hardware for Optimal Performance on page 2 of this manual. If issues persist even at close range, please contact please contact Belkin Technical Support.

In order to determine if wireless issues are related to range, we suggest temporarily moving the computer, if possible, to five to ten feet from Wireless Router or Access Point. Changing the wireless channel - Depending on local wireless traffic and interference, switching the wireless channel of your network can improve performance and reliability. The default channel the router is shipped with is channel 11, you may choose from several other channels depending on your region; see your router manual for instructions on how to choose other channels. Limiting the wireless transmit rate - Limiting the wireless transmit rate can help improve the maximum wireless range, and connection stability. Most wireless cards have the ability 42 42 Troubleshooting to limit the transmission rate. To change this property, go to the Windows Control Panel, open the Network Connections and double-click on your wireless cards connection. In the properties dialog, select the configure button on the General tab

(Windows 98 users will have to select the wireless card in the list box and then click properties), 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 literature. 1 2 3 4 5 6 s e c t i o n If issues persist even at close range, please contact please contact Belkin Technical Support.
