Manually Configuring your Router
WPA (with 802.1x radius server)
With this system, a radius server distributes the network key to the clients
automatically. This is typically found in a business environment.
WPA2
The Router features WPA2, which is the second generation of the WPA-based
802.11i standard. It offers a higher level of wireless security by combining
advanced network authentication and stronger AES encryption methods.
WPA2 Requirements
IMPORTANT:
In order to use WPA2 security, all your computers and wireless client
adapters must be upgraded with patches, drivers, and client utility software that
support WPA2. At the time of this User Manual’s publication, a couple security
patches are available, for free download, from Microsoft®. These patches work only
with the Windows XP operating system. Other operating systems are not supported
at this time.
For a Windows XP computer that does not have Service Pack 2 (SP2), a file from
Microsoft called “Windows XP Support Patch for Wireless Protected Access
(KB 826942)” is available for free download at http://www.microsoft.com/
downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&familyid=009D8425-CE2B-47A4-ABEC-
274845DC9E91.
For Windows XP computers with SP2, Microsoft has released a free download
to update the wireless client components to support WPA2 (KB893357). The
update can be download from: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.

IMPORTANT:
You also need to ensure that all your wireless client cards and
adapters support WPA2, and that you have downloaded and installed the latest
driver. Most of the Belkin wireless cards have updated drivers available for
download from the Belkin support site: www.belkin.com/networking. For a list of
Belkin wireless products that support WPA/WPA2, please visit our website at www.
belkin.com/networking.
Sharing the Same Network Keys
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 your wireless networking
devices are sharing the same network key.
