Configuring Your Adapter To Use Security - Belkin F5D9050 User Manual

Using the Belkin Wireless Networking Utility
WPA2 requires Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) for encryption of
data, which offers much greater security than WPA. WPA uses both
Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) and (AES) for encryption.
Setting up your Belkin Wireless Router (or Access Point) to use Security
To start using security, you need to first enable WEP or WPA for your
wireless router (or access point). For Belkin Wireless Routers (or Access
Points), these security features can be configured by using the web-
based interface. See your wireless router's (or access point's) manual for
directions on how to access the management interface.
IMPORTANT: You must now set all wireless network cards/adapters to
match these settings.

Configuring your Adapter to use Security

At this point, you should already have your wireless router (or access
point) set to use WPA or WEP. In order for you to gain wireless
connection, you will need to set your Wireless G Plus MIMO USB
Network Adapter to use the same security settings.
Changing the Wireless Security Settings
The Belkin Wireless G Plus MIMO USB Network Adapter supports the
latest WPA security feature as well as the legacy WEP security standard.
By default, wireless security is disabled.
To enable security, you will first need to determine which standard
is used by the router (or access point). (See your wireless router's
or access point's manual for directions on how to access the
security settings.)
To access the security settings on your Adapter, click the "My
Connections" tab and point to the connection for which you want to
change security settings. Click "Edit" to change settings.
