Placement of your Wireless Networking Hardware for optimal Performance  
Your wireless connection will be stronger the closer your computer is to your wireless router (or access point). 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) and connected devices increases. This may or may not  
be noticeable to you. As you move farther from your wireless router (or access point), 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 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.  
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)  
2. Avoid obstacles and Interference  
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.  
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:  
To achieve the best wireless network coverage for your “wireless  
clients,” (i.e., computers enabled by Belkin Adapters or Cards):  
• Refrigerators  
• Washers and/or dryers  
• Metal cabinets  
• Ensure that your wireless router’s (or access point’s)  
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.  
• Large aquariums  
• Metallic-based, UV-tinted windows  
• Microwaves  
• 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.  
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 wireless router (or access point).  
• Try not to place the wireless router (or access  
point) near a cordless 2.4GHz phone.

4. choose the “Quietest” channel for your Wireless Network  
If the performance of your wireless network is impaired after  
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 Belkin Wireless Networking  
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.  
attending to the above issues, and you have a cordless phone:  
• Try moving cordless phones away from the wireless router  
(or access point) and your wireless-enabled computers.  
• 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.  
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.  
• If your phone supports channel selection, change the channel  
on the phone to the farthest channel from your wireless network  
as possible. For example, change the phone to channel 1 and  
move your wireless router (or access point) to channel 11.  
(Your channel selection will vary depending on your region.)  
See your phone’s user manual for detailed instructions.  
For more Belkin wireless networking products,  
use the detailed Site Survey and wireless channel  
information included in your User Manual.  
• If necessary, consider switching to a  
900MHz or 5GHz cordless phone.

5. Secure connections, VPNs, and AoL  
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 the Belkin Wireless Range Extender/Access Point.  
Secure connections typically require a user name and password, and  
are used where security is important. Secure connections include:  
For more information regarding our networking products,  
or call Belkin Technical Support.  
• 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 re-running 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 in Windows,  
see the “Power Options” item in the Control Panel.  
If you continue to have difficulty with Secure Connections,  
VPNs, and AOL, please review steps 1–4 in the previous  
pages to be sure you have addressed these issues.

Connecting to a secure Wi-Fi® Network  
If you choose to connect to a secure network,  
determine the type of security (WPA/WPA2 or WEP)  
and use the appropriate field in the dialog box.  
Wireless Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a less secure, but  
more widely adopted wireless security protocol. Depending  
on the security level (64- or 128-bit), the user will be  
asked to input a 10- or 26-character hex key. A hex key  
is a combination of letters, a–f, and numbers, 0–9.  
Wi-Fi Protected Access® (WPA®/WPA2®) is the new standard  
in wireless security. Instead of a hex key, WPA/WPA2 uses only  
passphrases, which are much easier to remember. The passphrase  
is 8–63 characters and can consist of alphabet letters and numbers.

key settings in your computer and wireless router (or access point).  
Check the WEP, WPA, or WPA2 key settings to see if they match.  
The key is case-sensitive and the spelling on each computer and  
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.  
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

Data transfer is sometimes slow.  
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. 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 farther 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  
10 feet away from the wireless router (or access point). Please  
see the section titled, “Placement of your Wireless Networking  
Hardware for Optimal Performance.” If issues persist even at  
close range, please contact Belkin Technical Support.

signal strength is poor.  
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 to limit the transmission  
rate. To change this property, go to the Windows Control Panel,  
open “Network Connections” and double-click on your Adapter’s  
connection. In the “Properties” dialog, select the “Configure” button  
on the “General” tab (Windows 98 users will have to select the USB  
Network Adapter 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 literature. If issues  
persist even at close range, please contact Belkin Technical Support.

the router is shipped with is channel 6. You may choose from several  
other channels depending on your region; see your router’s (or access  
point’s) user manual for instructions on how to choose other channels.

What’s the difference between 802.11g and 802.11n?  
Currently there are three commonly used wireless networking standards, which transmit data at very different maximum  
speeds. Each is based on the designation for certifying network standards. The most common wireless networking  
standard, 802.11g, can transmit information up to 54Mbps; 802.11a also supports up to 54Mbps, but in the 5GHz frequency;  
and 802.11n specification can connect at up to 300Mbps. See the following chart for more detailed information.
