A WEP key is a mixture of numbers and letters from
A–F and 0–9. For 128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26 keys. This
Network key needs to match the key you assign to your Wireless

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 Wireless
802.11g 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.
