Introduction  
Placement of your Wireless G Plus MIMO ADSL2+  
Modem Router  
Important Factors for Placement and Setup  
Your wireless connection will be stronger the closer your computer is  
to your Router. Typical indoor operating range for 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 Router and  
connected devices increases. This may or may not be noticeable to  
you. As you move further from your Router, connection speed may  
decrease. Factors that can weaken signals simply by getting in the way  
of your network’s radio waves are metal appliances or obstructions,  
and walls.  
If you have concerns about your network’s performance that might  
be related to range or obstruction factors, try moving the computer  
to a position between five and 10 feet from the Router in order to see  
if distance is the problem. If difficulties persist even at close range,  
please contact Belkin Technical Support.  
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. Router Placement  
Place your Router, 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 Router’s networking antennas are parallel to each  
other, and are positioned vertically (toward the ceiling). If your  
Router itself is positioned vertically, point the antennas as much as  
possible in an upward direction.  
In multistory homes, place the Router on a floor that is as close  
to the center of the home as possible. This may mean placing the  
Router on an upper floor.  
Try not to place the Router near a cordless 2.4GHz phone.  
The Router is designed to be placed on a desktop. All of the cables exit  
from the rear of the Router for better organization and utility. The LED  
indicators are easily visible on the front of the Router to provide you with  
information about network activity and status.

Introduction

2. Avoid Obstacles and Interference  
Avoid placing your Router near devices that may emit radio “noise,”  
such as microwave ovens. Dense objects that can inhibit wireless  
communication include:  
Refrigerators  
Washers and/or dryers  
Metal cabinets  
Large aquariums  
Metallic-based UV tinted windows  
3
4
If your wireless signal seems weak in some spots, make sure that  
objects such as these are not blocking the signal’s path (between your  
computers and Router).  
5
6
3. Cordless Phones  
If the performance of your wireless network is impaired after attending  
to the above issues, and you have a cordless phone:  
7
Try moving cordless phones away from your Router and your  
wireless-enabled computers.  
8
Unplug and remove the battery from any cordless phone that  
operates on the 2.4GHz band (check manufacturer’s 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 farthest channel from your wireless network.  
For example, change the phone to channel 1 and move your  
Router to channel 11. See your phone’s user manual for detailed  
instructions.  
9
10  
If necessary, consider switching to a 900MHz or 5GHz cordless phone.  
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 found in the Wireless Utility of your wireless adapter to  
locate any other wireless networks that are available (see your wireless  
adapter’s user manual), and move your Router 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.  
For Belkin wireless networking products, use the detailed Site  
Survey and wireless channel information included with your  
wireless network card. See your network card’s user guide for  
more information.

Introduction  
These guidelines should allow you to cover the maximum possible area  
with your Router. Should you need to cover an even wider area, we  
suggest the Belkin Wireless Range Extender/Access Point.  
5. Secure Connections, VPNs, and AOL  
Secure connections 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 online banking websites  
Many commercial websites that require a user name and password  
to access your account  
Secure connections can be interrupted by a computer’s power  
management setting, which causes it to “go to sleep.” The simplest  
solution to avoid this is to simply reconnect by rerunning the VPN or  
AOL software, or by re-logging into the secure website.  
A second alternative is to change your computer’s 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.  
If you continue to have difficulty with Secure Connections, VPNs, and  
AOL, please review the steps above to be sure you have addressed  
these issues.

you can make changes and perform setup functions from any computer  
on the network quickly and easily.  
8
9
NAT IP Address Sharing  
10  
Your Router employs Network Address Translation (NAT) to share the  
single IP address assigned to you by your Internet Service Provider  
while saving the cost of adding IP addresses to your Internet service  
account.  
SPI Firewall  
Your Router is equipped with a firewall that will protect your network  
from a wide array of common hacker attacks including IP Spoofing,  
Land Attack, Ping of Death (PoD), Denial of Service (DoS), IP with zero  
length, Smurf Attack, TCP Null Scan, SYN flood, UDP flooding, Tear  
Drop Attack, ICMP defect, RIP defect, and fragment flooding.  
Integrated 10/100 4-Port Switch  
The Router has a built-in, four-port network switch to allow your wired  
computers to share printers, data and MP3 files, digital photos, and  
much more. The switch features automatic detection so it will adjust to  
the speed of connected devices. The switch will transfer data between  
computers and the Internet simultaneously without interrupting or  
consuming resources.

Product Overview  
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)  
UPnP is a technology that offers seamless operation of voice  
messaging, video messaging, games, and other applications that are  
UPnP-compliant.  
Support for VPN Pass-Through  
If you connect to your office network from home using a VPN  
connection, your Router will allow your VPN-equipped computer to  
pass through the Router and to your office network.  
Built-In Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)  
Built-In Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) on-board makes  
for the easiest possible connection of a network. The DHCP server  
will assign IP addresses to each computer automatically so there is no  
need for a complicated networking setup.  
Setup Assistant  
The Setup Assistant, second generation of Belkin’s renowned Easy  
Install Wizard, takes the guesswork out of setting up your Router. This  
automatic software determines your network settings for you and sets  
up the Router for connection to your Internet Service Provider (ISP). In  
a matter of minutes, your Router will be up and running on the Internet.  
Note: Setup Assistant software is compatible with Windows 2000 and  
XP. If you are using another operating system, the Router can be set  
up using the Alternate Setup Method described in this User Manual  
(see page 22).  
Integrated Wireless G Plus MIMO Access Point  
Wireless G Plus MIMO is an exciting new wireless technology.  
It employs MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) smart-antenna  
technology that achieves data rates above the standard 802.11g  
throughput. Actual throughput is typically lower than the connected  
data rate and will vary depending on your networking environment.  
MAC-Address Filtering  
For added security, you can set up a list of MAC addresses (unique  
client identifiers) that are allowed access to your network. Every  
computer has its own MAC address. Simply enter these MAC  
addresses into a list using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface  
and you can control access to your network.

Step 4: Configuring your Router for Connection to your Internet  
Service Provider (ISP)  
The “Internet/WAN” tab is where you will set up your Router to  
connect to your ISP. The Router is capable of connecting to virtually  
any ISP’s system provided you have correctly configured the Router’s  
settings for your ISP’s connection type. Your ISP connection settings  
are provided to you by your ISP. To configure the Router with the  
settings that your ISP gave you, click “Connection Type” (A) on the  
left side of the screen. Select the connection type you use. If your ISP  
gave you DNS settings, clicking “DNS” (B) allows you to enter DNS  
address entries for ISPs that require specific settings. Clicking “MAC  
Address” (C) will let you clone your computer’s MAC address or type  
in a specific WAN MAC address, if required by your ISP. When you

Setting Custom Domain Name Server (DNS) Settings  
A “Domain Name Server” is a server located on the Internet that translates  
addresses. Many Internet Service Providers (ISPs) do not require you to  
enter this information into the Router. The “Automatic from ISP” box (1)  
should be checked if your ISP did not give you a specific DNS address.  
If you are using a static IP connection type, then you may need to enter  
a specific DNS address and secondary DNS address for your connection  
to work properly. If your connection type is dynamic or PPPoE, it is likely  
that you do not have to enter a DNS address. Leave the “Automatic  
from ISP” box checked. To enter the DNS address settings, uncheck  
the “Automatic from ISP” box and enter your DNS entries in the spaces  
provided. Click “Apply Changes” (2) to save the settings.

Using Dynamic DNS  
The Dynamic DNS service allows you to create an alias dynamic IP  
address to a static host name in any of the many domains DynDNS.org  
offers, allowing your network computers to be more easily accessed  
from various locations on the Internet. DynDNS.org provides this  
service, for up to five host names, free to the Internet community.  
3
The Dynamic DNSSM service is ideal for a home website, file server, or  
to make it easy to access your home PC and stored files while you’re  
at work. Using the service can ensure that your host name always  
points to your IP address, no matter how often your ISP changes it.  
When your IP address changes, your friends and associates can always  
locate you by visiting yourname.dyndns.org instead.

Changing LAN Settings  
All settings for the internal LAN setup of the Router can be viewed and  
changed here.  
1. IP Address  
The “IP address” is the internal IP address of the Router. The default  
IP address is “192.168.2.1”. To access the advanced setup interface,  
type this IP address into the address bar of your browser. This address  
can be changed if needed. To change the IP address, type in the new  
IP address and click “Apply Changes”. The IP address you choose  
should be a non-routable IP. Examples of a non-routable IP are:  
192.168.x.x (where x is anything between 0 and 255)  
10.x.x.x (where x is anything between 0 and 255)  
2. Subnet Mask  
There is no need to change the subnet mask. This is a unique,  
advanced feature of your Belkin Router. It is possible to change the  
subnet mask if necessary; however, do NOT make changes to the  
subnet mask unless you have a specific reason to do so. The default  
setting is “255.255.255.0”.  
3. DHCP Server  
The DHCP server function makes setting up a network very easy  
by assigning IP addresses to each computer on the network  
automatically. The default setting is “On”. The DHCP server can be  
turned OFF if necessary; however, in order to do so you must manually  
set a static IP address for each computer on your network. To turn off  
the DHCP server, select “Off” and click “Apply Changes”.

4. IP Pool  
The range of IP addresses set aside for dynamic assignment to the  
computers on your network. The default is 2–100 (99 computers). If  
you want to change this number, you can do so by entering a new  
starting and ending IP address and clicking on “Apply Changes”. The  
DHCP server can assign 100 IP addresses automatically. This means  
that you cannot specify an IP address pool larger than 100 computers.  
For example, starting at 50 means you have to end at 150 or lower so  
as not to exceed the 100-client limit. The starting IP address must be  
3
4
lower in number than the ending IP address.  
5
5. Lease Time  
6
The length of time the DHCP server will reserve the IP address for  
each computer. We recommend that you leave the lease time set to  
“Forever”. The default setting is “Forever”, meaning that any time  
a computer is assigned an IP address by the DHCP server, the IP  
address will not change for that particular computer. Setting lease  
times for shorter intervals such as one day or one hour frees IP  
addresses after the specified period of time. This also means that a  
particular computer’s IP address may change over time. If you have set  
any of the other advanced features of the Router such as DMZ or client  
IP filters, these are dependent on the IP address. For this reason, you  
will not want the IP address to change.

6. Local Domain Name  
The default setting is “Belkin”. You can set a local domain name  
(network name) for your network. There is no need to change this  
setting unless you have a specific advanced need to do so. You can  
name the network anything you want such as “MY NETWORK”.  
Viewing the DHCP Client List Page  
You can view a list of the computers (known as clients), which are  
connected to your network. You are able to view the IP address (1) of  
the computer, the host name (2) (if the computer has been assigned  
one), and the MAC address (3) of the computer’s network interface  
card (NIC). Pressing the “Refresh” (4) button will update the list. If  
there have been any changes, the list will be updated.

Changing the Wireless Network Name (SSID)  
To identify your wireless network, a name called the SSID is used.  
The SSID is your network name. The default network name of the  
Router is “Belkin Wireless G Plus MIMO”. Your network name will look  
something like “Belkin_G Plus_MIMO_ADSL”. You can change this to  
anything you choose, or you can leave it unchanged. Keep in mind, if  
you decide to change your wireless network name, and there are other  
wireless networks operating in your area, your network name needs to  
be different from other wireless networks that may be operating in your  
area. To change the SSID, type in the SSID that you want to use in the  
SSID field (1) and click “Apply Changes” (2). The change is immediate.  
If you make a change to the SSID, your wireless-equipped computers  
may also need to be reconfigured to connect to your new network  
name. Refer to the documentation of your wireless network adapter for  
information on making this change.

there are 13. In other countries, there are other channel requirements.  
Your Router is configured to operate on the proper channels for the  
country in which you reside. The channel can be changed if needed. If  
there are other wireless networks operating in your area, your network  
should be set to operate on a channel that is different than the other  
wireless networks.

This switch allows you to set the Router’s wireless modes. There are  
several modes.  
Note: Some modes may require firmware updates to be enabled.  
1) 802.11g + 802.11b  
Setting the Router to this mode will allow 802.11g- and 802.11b-  
compliant devices to join the network. 802.11g devices will operate at  
the 802.11b speed only  
2) 802.11g only  
Setting the Router to this mode will allow only 802.11g-compliant  
devices to join the network, keeping out 802.11b devices.  
Using the Broadcast SSID Feature  
Note: This advanced feature should be employed by advanced users  
only. For security, you can choose not to broadcast your network’s  
SSID. Doing so will keep your network name hidden from computers  
that are scanning for the presence of wireless networks. To turn off  
the broadcast of the SSID, remove the check mark from the box next  
to “Broadcast SSID”, and then click “Apply Changes”. The change is  
immediate. Each computer now needs to be set to connect to your  
specific SSID; an SSID of “ANY” will no longer be accepted. Refer to  
the documentation of your wireless network adapter for information on  
making this change.  
Changing the Wireless Security Settings  
Your Router is equipped with the latest security standard called Wi-Fi  
Protected Access™ 2 (WPA2™). It also supports the legacy security  
standard called Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP). By default, wireless  
security is disabled. To enable security, you will need to determine  
which standard you want to use. To access the security settings, click

Setting WPA/WPA2-Personal (PSK)  
Like WPA security, WPA2 is available in both WPA2-Personal (PSK)  
mode and WPA2-Enterprise (RADIUS) mode. Typically, WPA2-Personal  
(PSK) is the mode that will be used in a home environment, while  
WPA2-Enterprise (RADIUS) is implemented in a business environment  
where an external radius server distributes the network key to the  
clients automatically. This guide will focus on WPA2-Personal (PSK)  
usage. Please refer to the User Manual for more information about  
wireless security and different types of wireless security.  
1. After you’ve set up your Router, go to the “Security” page under  
“Wireless” and select “WPA/WPA2-Personal (PSK)” from the “Security  
Mode” drop-down menu.  
2. For “Authentication”, select “WPA-PSK”, “WPA2-PSK”, or “WPA-  
PSK + WPA2-PSK”. This setting will have to be identical on the  
wireless clients that you set up. “WPA-PSK + WPA2-PSK” mode  
will allow the Router to support clients running either WPA or WPA2  
security.  
3. For “Encryption Technique”, select “TKIP”, “AES”, or “TKIP+AES”.  
This setting will have to be identical on the wireless clients that you set  
up.  
4. Enter your pre-shared key (PSK). This can be from eight to 63  
characters and can be letters, numbers, or symbols. This same  
key must be used on all of the wireless clients that you set up. For  
example, your PSK might be something like: “Smith family network  
key”. Click “Apply Changes” to finish. You must now set all wireless  
clients to match these settings.

3. Encryption in the Router is now set. Each of your computers on  
your wireless network will now need to be configured with the same  
passphrase. Refer to the documentation of your wireless network  
adapter for information on making this change.  
Using a Hexadecimal Key  
A hexadecimal key is a mixture of numbers and letters from A–F and  
0–9. 64-bit keys are 10 digits long and can be divided into five two-  
digit numbers. 128-bit keys are 26 digits long and can be divided into  
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  
In the boxes below, make up your key by writing in two characters  
between A–F and 0–9. You will use this key to program the encryption  
settings on your Router and your wireless computers.  
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 product to see which version you are  
using. If you cannot configure your network with 128-bit encryption, try  
64-bit encryption.

Configuring the Firewall  
Your Router is equipped with a firewall that will protect your network  
from a wide array of common hacker attacks including:  
IP Spoofing  
Land Attack Ping of Death (PoD)  
Denial of Service (DoS)  
IP with zero length  
Smurf Attack  
TCP Null Scan  
SYN flood  
UDP flooding  
Tear Drop Attack  
ICMP defect  
RIP defect  
Fragment flooding  
The firewall also masks common ports that are frequently used to  
attack networks. These ports appear to be “stealth” meaning that for all  
intents and purposes, they do not exist to a would-be hacker. You can  
turn the firewall function off if needed; however, it is recommended that  
you leave the firewall enabled. Disabling the firewall protection will not  
leave your network completely vulnerable to hacker attacks, but it is  
recommended that you leave the firewall enabled.  
Configuring Internal Forwarding Settings  
The Virtual Servers function will allow you to route external (Internet)  
calls for services such as a web server (port 80), FTP server (Port 21),  
or other applications through your Router to your internal network.

Since your internal computers are protected by a firewall, computers  
outside your network (over the Internet) cannot get to them because  
they cannot be “seen”. A list of common applications has been  
provided in case you need to configure the Virtual Server function for  
a specific application. If your application is not listed, you will need to  
contact the application vendor to find out which port settings you need.

Click “Apply Changes” to save the setting for that application. To  
remove an application, select the number of the row that you want to  
remove then click “Clear”.  
10  
Manually Entering Settings into the Virtual Server  
To manually enter settings, enter the IP address in the space provided  
for the internal (server) machine, the port(s) required to pass (use a  
comma between multiple ports), select the port type (TCP or UDP),  
and click “Apply Changes”. You can only pass one port per internal IP  
address. Opening ports in your firewall can pose a security risk. You  
can enable and disable settings very quickly. It is recommended that  
you disable the settings when you are not using a specific application.

Setting Client IP Filters  
The Router can be configured to restrict access to the Internet, e-mail,  
or other network services at specific days and times. Restriction can be  
set for a single computer, a range of computers, or multiple computers.  
To restrict Internet access to a single computer for example, enter the  
IP address of the computer you wish to restrict access to in the IP  
fields (1). Next, enter “80” in both the port fields (2). Select “Both” (3).  
Select “Block” (4). You can also select “Always” to block access all  
of the time. Select the day to start on top (5), the time to start on top  
(6), the day to end on the bottom (7), and the time to stop (8) on the  
bottom. Select “Enable” (9). Click “Apply Changes”. The computer at  
the IP address you specified will now be blocked from Internet access  
at the times you specified. Note: Be sure you have selected the correct  
time zone under “Utilities> System Settings> Time Zone”.  
Setting MAC-Address Control  
The MAC-address filter is a powerful security feature that allows you  
to specify which computers are allowed on the network. Any computer  
attempting to access the network that is not specified in the filter list  
will be denied access. When you enable this feature, you must enter a  
name for the user and the MAC address of each client on your network  
to allow network access. Next, click “Add” to save the settings.

The DMZ feature allows you to specify one computer on your network  
to be placed outside of the firewall. This may be necessary if the  
firewall is causing problems with an application such as a game or  
video conferencing application. Use this feature on a temporary basis.  
The computer in the DMZ is NOT protected from hacker attacks.

To put a computer in the DMZ, enter the last digits of its IP address in  
the IP field and select “Enable”. Click “Apply Changes” for the change  
to take effect. If you are using multiple static WAN IP addresses, it is  
possible to select which WAN IP address the DMZ host will be directed  
to. Type in the WAN IP address you wish the DMZ host to direct to,  
enter the last two digits of the IP address of the DMZ host computer,  
select “Enable” and click “Apply Changes”.  
Blocking an ICMP Ping  
Computer hackers use what is known as “pinging” to find potential  
victims on the Internet. By pinging a specific IP address and receiving  
a response from the IP address, a hacker can determine that something  
of interest might be there. The Router can be set up so it will not  
respond to an ICMP ping from the outside. This heightens your  
Router’s security level.

The login time-out option allows you to set the period of time that you  
can be logged into the Router’s advanced setup interface. The timer  
starts when there has been no activity. For example, imagine you have  
made some changes in the advanced setup interface, then left your  
computer alone without clicking “Logout”. Assuming the time-out is set  
to 10 minutes, 10 minutes after you leave, the login session will expire.  
You will have to log into the Router again to make any more changes.  
The login time-out option is for security purposes and the default is  
set to 10 minutes. Note: Only one computer can be logged into the  
Router’s advanced setup interface at one time.

The Router keeps time by connecting to a Simple Network Time  
Protocol (SNTP) server. This allows the Router to synchronize the  
system clock to the global Internet. The synchronized clock in the  
Router is used to record the security log and control client filtering.  
Select the time zone that you reside in. You have the option to select  
a primary and a backup NTP server to keep your Router’s clock  
synchronized. Select your desired NPT server from the drop-down box,  
or simply keep it as is.

Enabling Remote Management  
Before you enable this advanced feature of your Belkin Router, MAKE  
SURE YOU HAVE SET THE ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD. Remote  
management allows you to make changes to your Router’s settings  
from anywhere on the Internet. There are two methods of remotely  
managing the Router. The first is to allow access to the Router from  
anywhere on the Internet by selecting “Any IP address can remotely  
59  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface  
manage the Router”. By typing in your WAN IP address from any  
computer on the Internet, you will be presented with a login screen  
where you need to type in the password of your Router.  
The second method is to allow a specific IP address only to remotely  
manage the Router. This is more secure, but less convenient. To use  
this method, enter the IP address you know you will be accessing the  
Router from in the space provided and select “Only this IP address  
can remotely manage the Router”. Before you enable this function, it is  
STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you set your administrator password.  
Leaving the password empty will potentially open your Router to  
intrusion.  
Advanced Feature: The “Remote Access Port” option allows you to  
configure the desired “Remote Access Port for Remote Management”  
feature. The default access port is set to port 80.

Enabling/Disabling UPnP  
UPnP (Universal Plug-and-Play) is yet another advanced feature offered  
by your Belkin Router. It is a technology that offers seamless operation  
of voice messaging, video messaging, games, and other applications  
that are UPnP-compliant. Some applications require the Router’s  
firewall to be configured in a specific way to operate properly. This  
usually requires opening TCP and UDP ports, and in some instances,  
setting trigger ports. An application that is UPnP-compliant has the  
ability to communicate with the Router, basically “telling” the Router  
which way it needs the firewall configured. The Router ships with the  
UPnP feature disabled. If you are using any applications that are UPnP-  
compliant, and wish to take advantage of the UPnP features, you can  
enable the UPnP feature. Simply select “Enable” in the “UPnP Enabling”  
section of the “Utilities” page. Click “Apply Changes” to save the  
change.

Setup Assistant cannot find my Router.  
Solution:  
If the Setup Assistant is not able to find the Router during the  
installation process, please check the following items:  
1. If the Setup Assistant is not able to find the Router during the  
installation process, there may be third-party firewall software  
installed on the computer attempting to access the Internet.  
Examples of third-party firewall software are ZoneAlarm, BlackICE  
PC Protection, McAfee Personal Firewall, and Norton Personal  
Firewall. If you do have firewall software installed on your  
computer, please make sure that you properly configure it. You  
can determine if the firewall software is preventing Internet access  
by temporarily turning it off. If, while the firewall is disabled,  
Internet access works properly, you will need to change the firewall  
settings to function properly when it is turned on. Please refer to  
the instructions provided by the publisher of your firewall software  
for instructions on configuring the firewall to allow Internet access.

and the “Internet” LED is blinking, the problem may be that your  
modem and Router are not connected properly.  
1. Make sure the network cable between the modem and the  
Router is connected. The cable should be connected at one  
end to the Router’s “DSL Line” port, and at the other end to the  
network port on your modem.  
2. Unplug the cable or DSL modem from its power source for three  
minutes. After three minutes, plug the modem back into its  
power source. This may force the modem to properly recognize  
the Router.  
3. Unplug the power to your Router, wait 10 seconds, and then  
reconnect the power. This will cause the Router to reattempt  
communication with the modem. If the “ADSL” LED on the  
Router is not lit after completing these steps, please contact  
Belkin Technical Support.  
4. Try shutting down and restarting your computer.  
Problem:

Problem:  
I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly.  
Solution:  
If you are unable to connect to the Internet from a wireless  
computer, please check the following items:  
1. Look at the lights on your Router. If you’re using a Belkin Router,  
the lights should be as follows:  
• The “Power” LED should be on.  
• The “ADSL” LED should be on, and not blinking.  
• The “Internet” LED should be on, and not blinking.  
73  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Troubleshooting  
* The “WLAN Status” LED should be on, not blinking.  
2. Open your wireless utility software by clicking on the icon in the  
system tray at the bottom, right-hand corner of the screen.  
3. The exact window that opens will vary depending on the model  
of wireless card you have; however, any of the utilities should  
have a list of “Available Networks”—those wireless networks it  
can connect to.  
Does the name of your wireless network appear in the results?  
Yes, my network name is listed—go to the troubleshooting solution  
titled “I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly, but my network  
name is listed”.  
No, my network name is not listed—go to the troubleshooting  
solution titled “I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly, and my  
network name is not listed”.  
Problem:  
I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly, but my network name is

Solution:  
If the name of your network is listed in the “Available Networks” list,  
please follow the steps below to connect wirelessly:  
1. Click on the correct network name in the “Available Networks”  
list.  
2. If the network has security (encryption) enabled, you will need to  
enter the network key. For more information regarding security,  
see the section entitled “Changing the Wireless Security  
Settings”.  
3. Within a few seconds, the tray icon in the lower, left-hand corner

My wireless network performance is inconsistent.  
Data transfer is sometimes slow.  
Signal strength is poor.

8
Difficulty establishing and/or maintaining a Virtual Private Network  
(VPN) connection.  
9
Solution:  
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.  
10  
In order to determine if wireless issues are related to range, we  
suggest temporarily moving the computer, if possible, five to 10 feet  
from the Router.  
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 the section on page  
XX [insert the correct pg no.] entitled “Changing the Wireless  
Channel” 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

Troubleshooting  
connection stability. Most wireless cards have the ability to limit  
the transmission rate. To change this property, go to the Windows  
Control Panel, open “Network Connections” and double-click on  
your wireless card’s 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 card’s  
user manual.  
Problem:  
I am having difficulty setting up Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)  
security on my Belkin Router.
