Introduction
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. Wireless Router (or Access Point) Placement
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’s (or access point’s) networking
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. Avoid Obstacles and Interference
Avoid placing your wireless router (or access point) 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
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).
3. Cordless Phones
If the performance of your wireless network is impaired, even after
attending to the above issues, and you have a cordless phone:
• Try moving cordless phones away from wireless routers (or access
points) and your wireless-enabled computers.
• Unplug and remove the battery from any cordless phone
that operates on the 2.4GHz band (check the 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 wireless
router (or access point) to channel 11. See your phone’s user
manual for detailed instructions.
• 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 LAN Utility
of your wireless adapter to locate any other wireless networks that
are available (see your wireless adapter’s manual), and move your
wireless router (or access point) and computers to a channel as far
away from other networks as possible.

Introduction
• 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 in your User
Manual. These guidelines should allow you to cover the maximum
possible area with your wireless router (or 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 the computer 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 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.

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
WEP is a common protocol that adds security to all Wi-Fi-compliant
wireless products. WEP was designed to give 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 WEP’s 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 on
your network and you will not be able to successfully communicate within
your network.
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 combination of numbers and letters from
A–F and 0–9. For 64-bit WEP, you need to enter 10 hex characters. For
128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26 hex characters.
For instance:
AF 0F 4B C3 D4 = 64-bit WEP key
C3 03 0F AF 0F 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 = 128-bit WEP key

Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface
The WEP passphrase is NOT the same as a WEP key. Your router uses
this passphrase to generate your WEP keys, but different hardware
manufacturers might have different methods on generating the keys. If you
have multiple vendors’ equipments in your network, the easiest thing to do
is to use the hex WEP key from your router (or access point) and enter it
manually into the hex WEP key table in your router’s configuration screen.
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
WPA is a new Wi-Fi standard that was designed to improve upon the
security features of WEP. To use WPA security, the drivers and software
of your wireless equipment must be upgraded to support WPA. These
updates will be found on the wireless vendor’s 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 basically a password that is between eight
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

Using a Hexadecimal Key
A hexadecimal key is a combination of numbers and letters from A–F
and 0–9. 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
In the boxes below, create your key by writing in two characters between
A–F and 0–9 in each box. 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 verify which version you are using. If
you cannot configure your network with 128-bit encryption, try
64-bit encryption.

Changing the Wireless Security Settings
Your router is equipped with WPA (Wireless Protected Access), the
latest wireless security standard. It also supports the legacy security
standard, WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy). By default, wireless security
is disabled. To enable security, you must first determine which standard
you want to use. To access the security settings, click “Security” on
the “Wireless” tab.
WEP Setup
Note: To use WPA security, all your clients must be upgraded to drivers
and software that support it. At the time of this manual’s publication, a
security patch download is available, for free, from Microsoft. This patch
works only with the Windows XP operating system. You also need to
download the latest driver for your Belkin Wireless G Desktop or Notebook
Network Card from the Belkin support site. Other operating systems are
not supported at this time. Microsoft’s patch only supports devices with
WPA-enabled drivers such as Belkin 802.11g products. There are two
types of WPA security: WPA-PSK (no server) and WPA (with radius server).
WPA-PSK (no server) uses a so-called pre-shared key as the security key.
A pre-shared key is a password that is between eight and 63 characters
long. It can be a combination of letters, numbers, and other characters.
Each client uses the same key to access the network. Typically, this
mode will be used in a home environment. WPA (with radius server) is a
configuration in which a radius server distributes the keys to the clients
automatically. This is typically used in a business environment.

Troubleshooting
Problem:
My wireless network performance is inconsistent.
Data transfer is sometimes slow.
Signal strength is poor.
Difficulty establishing and/or maintaining a Virtual Private Network
(VPN) connection.
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. 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 router (or access point).
In order to determine if wireless issues are related to range, we suggest
temporarily moving the computer, if possible, from five to 10 feet away 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 “Changing the Wireless Channel” on page [INSERT REAL
PAGE NUMBER HERE] 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 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.

What’s the difference between 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11a, and
802.11n?
Currently there are four levels of wireless networking standards, which
transmit data at very different maximum speeds. Each is based on
the designation 802.11(x), so named by the IEEE, the board that is
responsible for certifying networking standards. The most common
wireless networking standard, 802.11b, transmits information at 11Mbps;
802.11a and 802.11g work at 54Mbps; and G Plus MIMO and Pre-N
work at 108Mbps, which utilizes MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output)
technology from the 802.11n proposals, to enhance 802.11g networks.
