Problem:

Do Belkin products support WPA?

Solution:

Note: To use WPA security, all your clients must be
upgraded to drivers and software that support it. At the
time of this FAQ publication, a security patch download
is available, for free, from Microsoft. This patch works
only with the Windows XP operating system.

Download the patch here:

You also need to download the latest driver for your
Belkin 802.11g Wireless Desktop Network Card 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.
Download the latest driver at

Problem:

I am having difficulty setting up Wi-Fi Protected
Access (WPA) security on a Belkin Wireless Router
or Belkin Access Point for a home network.

Solution:
1.

From the “Security Mode” drop-down menu,
select “WPA-PSK (no server)”.

2.

For “Encryption Technique”, select “TKIP” or “AES”. This
setting will have to be identical on the clients that you set up.

3.

Enter your pre-shared key. This can be from eight to
63 characters and can be letters, numbers, or symbols
or spaces. This same key must be used on all of the
clients that you set up. For example, your PSK might
be something like: “Smith family network key”.
