Placement of your Wireless 802.11g Router

Important Factors for Placement and Setup

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 further 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 ten 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 centre 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 centre 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.

Introduction

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 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 operate on the 2.4GHz band (check manufacturers 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 furthest 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.

Experiment with more than one of the available channels, in order to find the clearest connection and avoid interference from neighbouring cordless phones or other wireless devices.

For Belkin wireless networking products, use the detailed Site

Survey and wireless channel information included in your

User Guide.

These guidelines should allow you to cover the maximum possible area with your Wireless Router or Access Point. Should you need to cover an even wider area, we suggest the Belkin

Wireless Range Extender/Access Point.

5. Secure connections and VPNs

Secure connections are connections that 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

• Most on-line banking websites

• Many commercial websites which require a username and password to access your account

Secure connections can be interrupted by a computer’s power management setting, which causes it to “go to sleep.” The simplest solution to avoid this is to simply reconnect by re-running the VPN software, or by re-logging into the secure web site.

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 Connection or VPNs please review the steps above to be sure you have addressed these issues.

Product Features

In minutes you will be able to share your Internet connection and network your computers. The following is a list of features that make your new Belkin Wireless 802.11g Router an ideal solution for your home or small office network.

Works with Both PCs and Mac® Computers

The Router supports a variety of networking environments including

Mac OS® 8.x, 9.x, X v10.x, AppleTalk®, Linux®, Windows® 95, 98,

Me, NT®, 2000, and XP, and others. All that is needed is an Internet browser and a network adapter that supports TCP/IP (the standard language of the Internet).

Front-Panel LED Display

LEDs on the front of the Router indicate which functions are in operation. You’ll know at-a-glance whether your Router is connected to the Internet. This feature eliminates the need for advanced software and status-monitoring procedures.

Built-in USB Print Server

Your router includes a built-in USB print server that lets you print to a USB printer from any computer on the network. The print server is very simple to setup and convenient to use. Simply install your printer’s drivers and software on each computer, and then run the easy to use Print Server Setup Wizard to setup the print server. In minutes, all of your computers will have access to the same printer.

NAT IP Address Sharing

Your Router employs Network Address Translation (NAT) to share the single IP address assigned to you by your Internet Service Provider while saving the cost of adding additional IP addresses to your

Internet service account.

SPI Firewall

Your Router is equipped with a firewall that will protect your network from a wide array of common hacker attacks including IP Spoofing,

Land Attack, Ping of Death (PoD), Denial of Service (DoS), IP with zero length, Smurf Attack, TCP Null Scan, SYN flood, UDP flooding,

Tear Drop Attack, ICMP defect, RIP defect, and fragment flooding.

Integrated 10/100 4-Port Switch

The Router has a built-in, 4-port network switch to allow your wired computers to share printers, data and MP3 files, digital photos, and much more. The switch features automatic detection so it will adjust to the speed of connected devices. The switch will transfer data between computers and the Internet simultaneously without interrupting or consuming resources.

Universal Plug-and-Play (UPnP) Compatibility

UPnP (Universal Plug-and-Play) is a technology that offers seamless operation of voice messaging, video messaging, games, and other applications that are UPnP-compliant.

Support for VPN Pass-Through

If you connect to your office network from home using a VPN connection, your Router will allow your VPN-equipped computer to pass through the Router and to your office network.

Built-In Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)

Built-In Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) on-board makes for the easiest possible connection of a network. The DHCP server will assign IP addresses to each computer automatically so there is no need for a complicated networking setup.

Easy Install Wizard

The Easy Install Wizard takes the guesswork out of setting up your

Router. This automatic software determines your network settings for you and sets up the Router for connection to your Internet Service

Provider (ISP). In a matter of minutes, your Wireless Router will be up and running on the Internet. A separate wizard is included for setup of the print server.

802.11g is an exciting new wireless technology that achieves data rates up to

54Mbps in 54G Mode, nearly five times faster than 802.11b.

Integrated Parental Control Web Content Filter

Belkin has teamed with Cerberian, a leading content-filtering company, to bring you this unique feature. Your Belkin Wireless 802.11g Router is the first home networking solution with an integrated web content filter that allows you to block unwanted or offensive web content before it makes it to your network. Unlike other Parental Control solutions, Parental Control is built into the Belkin Wireless Router, so there is no software to install on any computer and you will never be charged a per-computer fee for the service, ever. Your

Wireless Router comes with a six-month free trial of this feature so you can take advantage of the capabilities right away. No credit card is needed to use the trial. You have control: Belkin Parental Control can be modified to meet your needs. You can set up your own policies and block any website you want. There is also an optional reporting feature (fee-based) that allows you to get a report showing you every website that was visited from your network

(refer to your Parental Control Manual for more information).

MAC Address Filtering

For added security, you can set up a list of MAC addresses (unique client identifiers) that are allowed access to your network. Every computer has its own MAC address. Simply enter these MAC addresses into a list using the web-based user interface and you can control access to your network.

A “Domain Name Server” is a server located on the Internet that translates Universal Resource Locator (URLs) like “www.belkin.com” to IP addresses. Many Internet Service Providers (ISPs) do not require you to enter this information into the Router. The “Automatic from ISP” box (1) should be checked if your ISP did not give you a specific DNS address. If you are using a static IP connection type, then you may need to enter a specific DNS address and secondary DNS address for your connection to work properly. If your connection type is dynamic or PPPoE, it is likely that you do not have to enter a DNS address.

Leave the “Automatic from ISP” box checked. To enter the DNS address settings, uncheck the “Automatic from ISP” box and enter your DNS entries in the spaces provided. Click “Apply Changes” (2) to save the settings.

Configuring your WAN Media Access Controller

(MAC) Address

All network components including cards, adapters, and routers, have a unique “serial number” called a MAC address. Your Internet Service

Provider may record the MAC address of your computer’s adapter and only let that particular computer connect to the Internet service. When you install the Router, its own MAC address will be “seen” by the

ISP and may cause the connection not to work. Belkin has provided the ability to clone (copy) the MAC address of the computer into the

Router. This MAC address, in turn, will be seen by the ISP’s system as the original MAC address and will allow the connection to work. If you are not sure whether your ISP needs to see the original MAC address, simply clone the MAC address of the computer that was originally connected to the modem. Cloning the address will not cause any problems with your network.

Note: In some cases we have seen that BigPond Cable users have had to clone the MAC address of the Network Card of the PC with the

BigPond software installed.

If you have installed the Belkin router in place of an old router which was connected to your BigPond service, you will need to clone the MAC address of this router’s WAN port (the unit’s MAC address is normally found on the underside of your router, or on its config page).

Please refer to the manufacturer’s user manual on how to find this information.

Changing LAN Settings

All settings for the internal LAN setup of the Router can be viewed and changed here.

1. IP Address

The “IP address” is the internal IP address of the Router. The default IP address is “192.168.2.1”. To access the advanced setup interface, type this IP address into the address bar of your browser. This address can be changed if needed. To change the

IP address, type in the new IP address and click “Apply Changes”.

The IP address you choose should be a non-routable IP.

Examples of a non-routable IP are:

192.168.x.x (where x is anything between 0 and 255)

10.x.x.x (where x is anything between 0 and 255)

2. Subnet Mask

There is no need to change the subnet mask. This is a unique, advanced feature of your Belkin Router. It is possible to change the subnet mask if necessary, however, do NOT make changes to the subnet mask unless you have a specific reason to do so. The default setting is “255.255.255.0”.

3. DHCP Server

The DHCP server function makes setting up a network very easy by assigning IP addresses to each computer on the network automatically. The default setting is “On”. The DHCP server can be turned OFF if necessary, however, in order to do so you must manually set a static IP address for each computer on your network. To turn off the DHCP server, select “Off” and click

“Apply Changes”.

4. IP Pool

The range of IP addresses set aside for dynamic assignment to the computers on your network. The default is 2–100 (99 computers). If you want to change this number, you can do so by entering a new starting and ending IP address and clicking on “Apply Changes”.

The DHCP server can assign 100 IP addresses automatically. This means that you cannot specify an IP address pool larger than 100 computers. For example, starting at 50 means you have to end at

150 or lower so as not to exceed the 100-client limit. The starting

IP address must be lower in number than the ending IP address.

5. Lease Time

The length of time the DHCP server will reserve the IP address for each computer. We recommend that you leave the lease time set to “Forever”. The default setting is “Forever”, meaning that any time a computer is assigned an IP address by the

DHCP server, the IP address will not change for that particular computer. Setting lease times for shorter intervals such as one day or one hour frees IP addresses after the specified period of time. This also means that a particular computer’s IP address may change over time. If you have set any of the other advanced features of the Router such as DMZ or client IP filters, these are dependent on the IP address. For this reason, you will not want the IP address to change.

6. Local Domain Name

The default setting is “Belkin”. You can set a local domain name

(network name) for your network. There is no need to change this setting unless you have a specific advanced need to do so. You can name the network anything you want such as “MY NETWORK”.

Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface

Viewing the DHCP Client List Page

You can view a list of the computers (known as clients), which are connected to your network. You are able to view the IP address (1) of the computer, the host name (2) (if the computer has been assigned one), and the MAC address (3) of the computer’s network interface card (NIC). Pressing the “Refresh” button will update the list. If there have been any changes, the list will be updated.

Configuring the Wireless Network Settings

The Wireless tab lets you make changes to the wireless network settings. From this tab you can make changes to the wireless network name (SSID), operating channel, encryption security settings, and configure the Router to be used as an access point.

Changing the Wireless Network Name (SSID)

To identify your wireless network, a name called the SSID (Service

Set Identifier) is used. The default SSID of the Router is “belkin54g”.

You can change this to anything you want to or you can leave it unchanged. If there are other wireless networks operating in your area, you will want to make sure that your SSID is unique (does not match that of another wireless network in the area). To change the

SSID, type in the SSID that you want to use in the SSID field (1) and click “Apply Changes” (2). The change is immediate. If you make a change to the SSID, your wireless-equipped computers may also need to be reconfigured to connect to your new network name. Refer to the documentation of your wireless network adapter for information on making this change.

Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface

Using the Wireless Mode Switch

Your Router can operate in three different wireless modes: “802.11g-

Auto”, “802.11g-Only”, and “802.11g-LRS”. The different modes are explained below.

802.11g-Auto Mode

In this mode, the Router is compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g wireless clients simultaneously. This is the factory default mode and ensures successful operation with all Wi-Fi-compatible devices. If you have a mix of 802.11b and 802.11g clients in your network, we recommend setting the Router to 802.11g-Auto mode. This setting should only be changed if you have a specific reason to do so.

802.11g-Only Mode

802.11g-Only mode works with 802.11g clients only. This mode is recommended only if you want to prevent 802.11b clients from accessing your network. To switch modes, select the desired mode from the “Wireless Mode” drop-down box. Then, click

“Apply Changes”.

802.11g-LRS Mode

We recommend you DO NOT use this mode unless you have a very specific reason to do so. This mode exists only to solve unique problems that may occur with some 802.11b client adapters and is

NOT necessary for interoperability of 802.11g and 802.11b standards.

When to Use 802.11g-LRS Mode

In some cases, older 802.11b clients may not be compatible with

802.11g wireless. These adapters tend to be of inferior design and may use older drivers or technology. 802.11g-LRS (Limited Rate

Support) allows these clients to be compatible with the newer

802.11g technology. Switching to this mode can solve problems that sometimes occur with these clients. If you suspect that you are using a client adapter that falls into this category of adapters, first check with the adapter vendor to see if there is a driver update. If there is no driver update available, switching to 802.11g-LRS mode may fix your problem. Please note that switching to 802.11g-LRS mode may

decrease 802.11g performance slightly.

Using Turbo Mode

The Router supports Frame Bursting mode.

Selecting “Frame Bursting” will result in all devices capable of

Frame Bursting to function in Frame Bursting mode, and all clients not capable, to operate in normal 802.11g modes. Frame Bursting mode supports both Frame Bursting-enabled devices and non-Frame

Bursting-enabled devices simultaneously. Frame Bursting mode is based on the unreleased 802.11e specification.

Selecting “Off” will disable Turbo mode.

Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface

Changing the Wireless Channel

There are a number of operating channels you can choose from. In the United States and Australia, there are 11 channels. In the United

Kingdom and most of Europe, there are 13 channels. In a small number of other countries, there are other channel requirements.

Your Router is configured to operate on the proper channels for the country you reside in. The default channel is 11 (unless you are in a country that does not allow channel 11). The channel can be changed if needed. If there are other wireless networks operating in your area, your network should be set to operate on a channel that is different than the other wireless networks. For best performance, use a channel that is at least five channels away from the other wireless network. For instance, if another network is operating on channel 11, then set your network to channel 6 or below. To change the channel, select the channel from the drop-down list. Click “Apply Changes”.

The change is immediate.

Using the Broadcast SSID Feature

Note: This advanced feature should be employed by advanced users only.

For security, you can choose not to broadcast your network’s SSID.

Doing so will keep your network name hidden from computers that are scanning for the presence of wireless networks. To turn off the broadcast of the SSID, remove the check mark from the box next to

“Broadcast SSID”, and then click “Apply Changes”. The change is immediate. Each computer now needs to be set to connect to your specific SSID; an SSID of “ANY” will no longer be accepted. Refer to the documentation of your wireless network adapter for information on making this change.

Protected Mode Switch

As part of the 802.11g specification, Protected Mode ensures proper operation of 802.11g clients and access points when there is heavy

802.11b traffic in the operating environment. When Protected mode is ON, 802.11g scans for other wireless network traffic before it transmits data. Therefore, using this mode in environments with

HEAVY 802.11b traffic or interference achieves best performance results. If you are in an environment with very little—or no—other wireless network traffic, your best performance will be achieved with

Protected mode OFF.

WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)

WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) 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 mixture of numbers and letters from A–F and 0–9. For 64-bit WEP, you need to enter 10 hex keys. For 128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26 hex keys.

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

The WEP passphrase is NOT the same as a WEP key. Your card 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 card’s configuration screen.

Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access)

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) 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 vendors 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 8 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.

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.

The Wireless 802.11g Desktop Network Card cannot access the network because it is using a different Network key than the Network key that is configured on the Wireless 802.11g Router.

Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface

Using a Hexadecimal Key

A hexadecimal key is a mixture 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, make up 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 64bit encryption only. Apple AirPort 2 products can support 64-bit or

128-bit encryption. Please check your product to see which version you are using. If you cannot configure your network with 128-bit encryption, try 64-bit encryption.

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.

WPA 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 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.

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 8 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 wherein a radius server distributes the keys to the clients automatically. This is typically used in a business environment.

Setting WPA-PSK (no server)

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 8 to 63 characters and can be letters, numbers, or symbols. 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”.

Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface

4. Click “Apply Changes” to finish. You must now set all clients to match these settings.

Setting WPA (with radius server) Settings

If your network uses a radius server to distribute keys to the clients, use this setting.

1. From the “Security Mode” drop-down menu, select

“WPA—Radius Server”.

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

3.

Using the Access Point Mode

Note: This advanced feature should be employed by advanced users only. The Router can be configured to work as a wireless network access point. Using this mode will defeat the NAT IP sharing feature and DHCP server. In Access Point (AP) mode, the Router will need to be configured with an IP address that is in the same subnet as the rest of the network that you will bridge to. The default IP address is 192.168.2.254 and subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. These can be customised for your need.

1.

Enable the AP mode my selecting “Enable” in the “Use as Access

Point only” page. When you select this option, you will be able to change the IP settings.

2.

Set your IP settings to match your network. Click “Apply

Changes”.

3.

Connect a cable from the WAN port on the Router to your existing network.

The Router is now acting as an access point. To access the Router’s advanced user interface again, type the IP address you specified into your browser’s navigation bar. You can set the encryption settings,

MAC address filtering, SSID, and channel normally.

Wireless Range Extension and Bridging

Wireless Range Extension and Bridging works with the following models only:

F5D7230au4P Wireless 802.11g Router with Built-In

USB Print Server

F5D7231au4 High-Speed Mode Wireless 802.11g Router

F5D7230au4 Wireless Router

F5D7130au Wireless Range Extender/Access Point

Please make sure to download the latest firmware version for the Router or

Access Point for optimal performance: http://web.belkin.com/support

What is a Wireless Bridge?

A wireless bridge is actually a “mode” in which your Wireless Router can directly connect to a secondary Wireless Access Point. Note that you can only bridge your Wireless 802.11g Router (model

F5D7230au4, F5D7231au4P, F5D7231au4) to a Belkin Wireless

802.11g Range Extender/Access Point (model F5D7130au). Bridging with access points of other manufacturers is not supported at this time. You can use the bridge mode to extend the range of your wireless network, or add an extension of your network in another area of your office or home without running cables.

Range Extension

Range extension will extend the wireless coverage area in your home or office. The example on the next page illustrates use of bridging to extend the range of your wireless network. In this example, the Router is set up to connect to an Access Point located in another area.

Laptops can roam, or move between the two wireless coverage areas.

Adding Another Network Segment Wirelessly

Bridging an Access Point to your Wireless Router allows you to add another network segment in another area in the home or office without running wires. Connecting a network switch or hub to the Access

Point’s RJ45 jack will allow a number of computers connected to the switch access to the rest of the network.

Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface

Setting Up a Bridge Between your Wireless Router and a

Secondary Access Point

Bridging your Belkin Router to a secondary Access Point requires that you access the Router’s Advanced Setup Utility and enter the MAC address of the Access Point in the appropriate area. There are also a few other requirements. PLEASE BE SURE TO FOLLOW THE STEPS BELOW,

CAREFULLY.

1.

Set your Access Point to the same channel as the Router. By default, the Router and Access Point channels are set to channel

11 at the factory. If you have never changed the channel, you don’t need to do anything (for more information on changing channels, see page 47 of this manual).

2.

Find the Access Point’s MAC address on the bottom of the

Access Point. There are two MAC addresses on the bottom label.

You will need the MAC address named “WLAN MAC Address”.

The MAC address starts with 0030BD or 001150 and is followed by six other numbers or letters (i.e. 0030BD-XXXXXX). Write the

MAC address below. Go to the next step.

3.

Place your secondary Access Point within range of your Wireless

Router and near the area where you want to extend the range or add the network segment. Typically, indoor range should be between 30 and 60 metres.

4.

Connect power to your Access Point. Make sure the Access Point is on and proceed to the next step.

5.

From a computer already connected to your Router, access the

Advanced Setup Utility by opening your browser. In the address bar, type in “192.168.2.1”. Do not type in “www” or “http://” before the number. Note: If you have changed your Router’s IP address, use that IP address.

6.

You will see the Router’s user interface in the browser window.

Click “Wireless Bridge” (2) on the left-hand side of the screen.

You will see the following screen.

(1)

In the field named AP1 (3), type in the MAC address of your secondary Access Point. When you have typed in the address, click “Apply Changes”.

9.

Bridging is now set up.

Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface

Configuring the Firewall

Your Router is equipped with a firewall that will protect your network from a wide array of common hacker attacks including:

• IP Spoofing

• SYN flood

• Land Attack

• UDP flooding

• Ping of Death (PoD)

• Tear Drop Attack

• Denial of Service (DoS)

• ICMP defect

• IP with zero length

• RIP defect

• Smurf Attack

• Fragment flooding

• TCP Null Scan

The firewall also masks common ports that are frequently used to attack networks. These ports appear to be “Stealth”, meaning that for all intents and purposes, they do not exist to a would-be hacker. You can turn the firewall function off if needed, however, it is recommended that you leave the firewall enabled. Disabling the firewall protection will not leave your network completely vulnerable to hacker attacks, but it is recommended that you leave the firewall enabled.

Configuring Internal Forwarding Settings

The Virtual Servers function will allow you to route external (Internet) calls for services such as a web server (port 80), FTP server (Port 21), or other applications through your Router to your internal network.

Since your internal computers are protected by a firewall, computers outside your network (over the Internet) cannot get to them because they cannot be “seen.” A list of common applications has been provided in case you need to configure the Virtual Server function for a specific application. If your application is not listed, you will need to contact the application vendor to find out which port settings you need.

Choosing an Application

Select your application from the drop-down list. Click “Add”. The settings will be transferred to the next available space in the screen.

Click “Apply Changes” to save the setting for that application. To remove an application, select the number of the row that you want to remove then click “Clear”.

Manually Entering Settings into the Virtual Server

To manually enter settings, enter the IP address in the space provided for the internal (server) machine, the port(s) required to pass, select the port type (TCP or UDP), and click “Apply Changes”. Each inbound port entry has two fields with 5 characters maximum per field that allows a start and end port range, e.g. [xxxxx]-[xxxxx]. For each entry, you can enter a single port value by filling in the two fields with the same value

(e.g. [7500]-[7500] or a wide range of ports (e.g. [7500]-[9000]). If you need multiple single port value or mixture of ranges and a single value, you must use multiple entries up to the maximum of 20 entries (e.g.

1. [7500]-[7500], 2. [8023]-[8023], 3. [9000]-[9000]). You can only pass one port per internal IP address. Opening ports in your firewall can pose a security risk. You can enable and disable settings very quickly.

It is recommended that you disable the settings when you are not using a specific application.

Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface

Setting Client IP Filters

The Router can be configured to restrict access to the Internet, e-mail, or other network services at specific days and times. Restriction can be set for a single computer, a range of computers, or multiple computers.

To restrict Internet access to a single computer for example, enter the

IP address of the computer you wish to restrict access to in the IP fields (1). Next, enter “80” in both the port fields (2). Select “Both” (3).

Select “Block” (4). You can also select “Always” to block access all of the time. Select the day to start on top (5), the time to start on top (6), the day to end on the bottom (7), and the time to stop (8) on the bottom. Select “Enable” (9). Click “Apply Changes”. The computer at the IP address you specified will now be blocked from Internet access at the times you specified. Note: Be sure you have selected the correct time zone under “Utilities> System Settings> Time Zone”.

Setting MAC Address Filtering

The MAC address filter is a powerful security feature that allows you to specify which computers are allowed on the network. Any computer attempting to access the network that is not specified in the filter list will be denied access. When you enable this feature, you must enter the MAC address of each client (computer) on your network to allow network access to each. The “Block” feature lets you turn on and off access to the network easily for any computer without having to add and remove the computer’s MAC address from the list.

(1)

(2)

(3)

To enable this feature, select “Enable MAC Address Filtering” (1).

Next, enter the MAC address of each computer on your network by clicking in the space provided (2) and entering the MAC address of the computer you want to add to the list. Click “Add” (3), then “Apply

Changes” to save the settings. To delete a MAC address from the list, simply click “Delete” next to the MAC address you wish to delete. Click

“Apply Changes” to save the settings.

Note: You will not be able to delete the MAC address of the computer you are using to access the Router’s administrative functions (the computer you are using now).

Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface

Enabling the Demilitarised Zone (DMZ)

The DMZ feature allows you to specify one computer on your network to be placed outside of the firewall. This may be necessary if the firewall is causing problems with an application such as a game or video conferencing application. Use this feature on a temporary basis.

The computer in the DMZ is NOT protected from hacker attacks.

To put a computer in the DMZ, enter the last digits of its IP address in the IP field and select “Enable”. Click “Apply Changes” for the change to take effect. If you are using multiple static WAN IP addresses, it is possible to select which WAN IP address the DMZ host will be directed to. Type in the WAN IP address you wish the DMZ host to direct to, enter the last two digits of the IP address of the DMZ host computer, select “Enable” and click “Apply Changes”.

Blocking an ICMP Ping

Computer hackers use what is known as “pinging” to find potential victims on the Internet. By pinging a specific IP address and receiving a response from the IP address, a hacker can determine that something of interest might be there. The Router can be set up so it will not respond to an ICMP ping from the outside. This heightens the level of security of your Router.

(1)

To turn off the ping response, select “Block ICMP Ping” (1) and click

“Apply Changes”. The Router will not respond to an ICMP ping.

Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface

Changing System Settings

The “System Settings” page is where you can enter a new administrator password, set the time zone, enable remote management, and turn on and off the NAT function of the Router.

Setting or Changing the Administrator Password

The Router ships with NO password entered. If you wish to add a password for greater security, you can set a password here. Write down your password and keep it in a safe place, as you will need it if you need to log into the

Router in the future. It is also recommended that you set a password if you plan to use the remote management feature of your Router.

Changing the Login Timeout Setting

The login timeout option allows you to set the period of time that you can be logged into the Router’s advanced setup interface. The timer starts when there has been no activity. For example, you have made some changes in the advanced setup interface, then left your computer alone without clicking

“Logout”. Assuming the timeout is set to 10 minutes, then 10 minutes after you leave, the login session will expire. You will have to login to the Router again to make any more changes. The login timeout option is for security purposes and the default is set to 10 minutes.

Note: Only one computer can be logged into the Router’s advanced setup interface at one time.

Setting the Time and Time Zone

The Router keeps time by connecting to a Simple Network Time Protocol

(SNTP) server. This allows the Router to synchronise the system clock to the global Internet. The synchronised clock in the Router is used to record the security log and control client filtering. Select the time zone that you reside in. If you reside in an area that observes Daylight Saving, then place a check mark in the box next to “Enable Daylight Saving”. The system clock may not update immediately. Allow at least 15 minutes for the Router to contact the time servers on the Internet and get a response. You cannot set the clock yourself.

Enabling Remote Management

Before you enable this advanced feature of your Belkin Router, MAKE SURE

YOU HAVE SET THE ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD. Remote management allows you to make changes to your Router’s settings from anywhere on the

Internet. There are two methods of remotely managing the Router. The first is to allow access to the Router from anywhere on the Internet by selecting

“Any IP address can remotely manage the Router”. By typing in your WAN

IP address from any computer on the Internet, you will be presented with a login screen where you need to type in the password of your Router. The second method is to allow a specific IP address only to remotely manage the

Router. This is more secure, but less convenient. To use this method, enter the IP address you know you will be accessing the Router from in the space provided and select “Only this IP address can remotely manage the Router”.

Before you enable this function, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you set your administrator password. Leaving the password empty will potentially open your Router to intrusion.

Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface

Enabling/Disabling NAT (Network Address Translation)

Note: This advanced feature should be employed by advanced users only.

Before enabling this function, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SET THE

ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD. Network Address Translation (NAT) is the method by which the Router shares the single IP address assigned by your

ISP with the other computers on your network. This function should only be used if your ISP assigns you multiple IP addresses or you need NAT disabled for an advanced system configuration. If you have a single IP address and you turn NAT off, the computers on your network will not be able to access the Internet. Other problems may also occur. Turning off NAT will disable your firewall functions.

Enabling/Disabling UPnP

UPnP (Universal Plug-and-Play) is yet another advanced feature offered by your Belkin Router. It is a technology that offers seamless operation of voice messaging, video messaging, games, and other applications that are UPnPcompliant. Some applications require the Router’s firewall to be configured in a specific way to operate properly. This usually requires opening TCP and

UDP ports, and in some instances, setting trigger ports. An application that is UPnP-compliant has the ability to communicate with the Router, basically

“telling” the Router which way it needs the firewall configured. The Router ships with the UPnP feature disabled. If you are using any applications that are UPnP-compliant, and wish to take advantage of the UPnP features, you can enable the UPnP feature. Simply select “Enable” in the “UPnP Enabling” section of the “Utilities” page. Click “Apply Changes” to save the change.

Problem:

Installation CD does not automatically start

Solution:

If the CD-ROM does not start the Easy Install Wizard automatically, it could be that the computer is running other applications that are interfering with the CD drive.

1. If the Easy Install Wizard screen does not appear within 15-20 seconds, open up your CD-ROM drive by double clicking on the

“My Computer” icon that is located on your desktop.

2.

Next, double-click on the CD-ROM drive that the Easy Installation

CD has been placed in to start the installation.

3.

Easy Install should start within a few seconds If, instead, a window appears showing the files on the CD, double-click on the icon labeled “EasyInstall.exe”.

4.

If the Easy Install Wizard is still does not start, reference the section titled “Manually Configuring Network Settings” (page 89 of this manual for alternative setup method).

Troubleshooting

Problem:

Easy Install cannot find my Router

Solution:

If the Easy Install Wizard is not able to find the Router during the installation process please check the following items:

1. If the Easy Install Wizard is not able to find the Router during the installation process, there may be 3rd party firewall software installed on the computer attempting to access the Internet.

Examples of third party firewall software are ZoneAlarm,

BlackICE PC Protection, McAfee Personal Firewall, and Norton

Personal Firewall.

If you do have firewall software installed on your computer, please make sure that you properly configure it. You can determine if the firewall software is preventing Internet access by temporarily turning it off. If, while the firewall is disabled,

Internet access works properly, you will need to change the firewall settings to function properly when it is turned on.

Please refer to the instructions provided by the publisher of your firewall software for instructions on configuring the firewall to allow Internet access.

2.

Unplug power to the Router for 10 seconds, and then plug the power back into the router. Ensure that the router’s Power light is on; it should be solid green. If not, check to make sure that the AC adapter is connected to the router and plugged into a wall outlet.

3.

Ensure that you have a cable (use the cable included with the router) connected between (1) the network (Ethernet) port on the back of the computer and (2) one of the LAN ports, labeled “1” through “4”, on the back of the router.

Note: the computer should NOT be connected to the port labeled “Internet/WAN” on the back of the router.

4.

Try shutting down and restarting your computer, then re-running the Easy Install.

If the Easy Install Wizard is still unable to find the Router, reference the section titled “Manually Configuring Network

Settings” for installation steps.

Problem:

Easy Install cannot connect my Router to the Internet

Solution:

If the Easy Install Wizard is not able to connect the Router to the

Internet, please check the following items:

1. Use the troubleshooting suggestions within the Easy

Install Wizard. If the troubleshooting screen does not open automatically, click on the “Troubleshoot” button in the lower right-hand corner of the Easy Install Wizard window.

2.

If your ISP requires a user name and password, make sure that you have typed in your user name and password correctly. Some user names require that the ISP’s domain may be at the end of the name. Example: “[email protected]”. The “@myisp.com” part of the user name may need to be typed as well as your user name.

If you continue to have no Internet connection, reference the section titled “Manually Configuring Network Settings” (page 89 of this manual for alternative setup method).

Problem:

ˆ• The Easy Install Wizard completed installation, but my web browser doesn’t work

• I am unable to connect to the Internet. The Routers “WAN” light on my Router is off, and the “Connected” light is blinking

Solution:

If you cannot connect to the Internet, and the “WAN” light is off, and the “Connected” light is blinking, the problem may be that your modem and router are not connected properly.

1.

Make sure the network cable between the modem and the

Router is connected. We strongly recommend using the cable that was supplied with your Cable or DSL modem for this purpose. The cable should be connected at one end to the

Router’s “Internet/WAN” port, and at the other end to the network port on your modem.

Troubleshooting

2.

Unplug the Cable or DSL modem from its power source for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes plug the modem back into its power source. This may force the modem to properly recognise the router.

3.

Unplug the power to your Router, wait 10 seconds, and then reconnect the power. This will cause the router to re-attempt communication with the modem.

If the “WAN” light on the Router is not lit after completing these steps, please contact Belkin Technical Support.

4.

Try shutting down and restarting your computer.

Problem:

• The Easy Install Wizard completed installation, but my web browser doesn’t work

• I am unable to connect to the Internet. The Routers “WAN” light on my Router is on, and the “Connected” light is blinking

Solution:

If you cannot connect to the Internet, the “WAN” light is on, and the “Connected” light is blinking, the problem may be that your connection type may not match the ISP’s connection.

• If you have a “static IP address” connection, your ISP must assign you the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address.

Please refer to the section entitled “Alternate Setup Method” for details on changing this setting.

• If you have a “PPPoE” connection, your ISP will assign you a user name and password and sometimes a service name. Make sure the Router connection type is configured to PPPoE and the settings are entered properly. Please refer to your Router’s User

Guide section entitled “Alternate Setup Method” for details on changing this setting.

Troubleshooting

Problem:

I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly

Solution:

If you are unable to connect to the Internet from a wireless computer, please check the following items:

1.

Look at the lights on your Router. If you’re using a Belkin Router, the lights should be as follows:

• The “Power” light should be on.

• The “Connected” light should be on, and not blinking.

• The “WAN” light should be either on or blinking.

2.

Open your wireless utility software by clicking on the icon in the system tray at the bottom right-hand corner of the screen. If you’re using a Belkin wireless card, the tray icon should look like this (the icon may be red or green):

3.

The exact window that opens will vary depending on the model of wireless card you have; however, any of the utilities should have a list of “Available Networks” – those wireless networks it can connect to.

Does the name of your wireless network appear in the results?

Yes, my network name is listed – go to the troubleshooting solution titled “ I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly, but my network name is listed”

No, my network name is not listed - go to the troubleshooting solution titled “ I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly, and my network name is not listed”

Problem:

I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly, but my network name is listed

Solution:

If the name of your network is listed in the “Available Networks” list, please follow the steps below to connect wirelessly:

1. Click on the correct network name in the “Available

Networks” list.

2.

If the network has security (encryption) enabled, you will need to enter the network key. For more information regarding security, see the page entitled: Setting up wireless security

3.

Within a few seconds, the tray icon in the lower left-hand corner of your screen should turn green, indication a successful connection to the network.

Problem:

I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly, and my network name is not listed

Solution

If the correct network name is not listed under “Available

Networks” in the wireless utility, please attempt the following troubleshooting steps:

1.

Temporarily move computer, if possible, five to ten feet from the Router. Close the wireless utility, and re-open it. If the correct network name now appears under “Available Networks”, you may have a range or interference problem. Please see the suggestions discussed in the section titled “Placement of your

Wireless Networking Hardware” of this user manual.

Troubleshooting

2.

Using a computer that is connected to the Router via a network cable (as opposed to wirelessly), ensure that “Broadcast SSID” is enabled. This setting is found on the Router’s wireless

“Channel and SSID” configuration page.

If you are still unable to access the Internet after completing these steps, please contact Belkin Technical Support.

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 further 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, five to ten feet 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 page

47 - “changing the wireless channel” 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 the Network Connections and double-click on

7

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.

Problem:

How do I extend the range of my wireless network

Solution:

Belkin recommends using one of the following products to extend wireless network coverage throughout large homes or offices:

• Wireless Access Point: A wireless access point can effectively double the coverage area of your wireless network. An Access

Point is typically placed in the area not currently covered by your wireless router, and connected to the router using either an

Ethernet cable, or through your home’s power lines using two

Powerline Ethernet Adapters.

• For 802.11g (54g) wireless networks, Belkin offers a Wireless

Range Extender/Access Point that can be connected wirelessly to a Belkin 802.11g Wireless Router, without requiring an

Ethernet cable or Powerline Ethernet Adapters.

These Belkin products are available at your local retailer, or can be ordered from Belkin directly.

For network/range extension information, please visit: www.belkin.

Problem:

I can’t print from one of the computers on my network. What do I do?

Solution:

For the PC to be able to print to the networked printer (printer on the print server), the printer’s software and drivers must be installed on the PC.

Every manufacturer ships its printer with a driver and, usually, printing software. Be sure that you have installed the printer drivers and software on each PC from which you plan to print. In some cases, while installing the drivers and software for your printer, you may be required to connect the

PC directly to the printer in order to complete the installation. This varies according to manufacturer.

Problem:

I keep getting the error message, “Cannot find the Router” when running the

Print Server Wizard. What do I do?

Solution:

If the Print Server Wizard is not able to find the Print Server in the Router, this means the computer does not have a valid connection to the Router. The most common causes of this issue are:

1. Wired computers (those not connected wirelessly): Check the cable between the computer and the Router. Make sure the light on the front of the Router that corresponds with the port on the back of the Router is lit. (If the computer is plugged into port 4, make sure the light for port 4 is lit).

2. Both wired and wireless computers: Make sure that the network card’s TCP/IP settings are set to obtain an IP address automatically. See the Router’s manual for tips on checking and changing your settings. If the IP address assigned to the computer’s network card are different than the Router’s settings, this will cause a problem.

3. Wireless Computers: Be sure that the wireless computer is connected to your network. Your network has a network name

(also called SSID). The default name of the Belkin Router is

“belkin54g”. It may be possible that there are multiple wireless networks in your area. To confirm that you are connected to your own network, and not a neighbouring one, use your wireless networking utility to scan for wireless networks. If more than one network is found, choose your network from the list and connect to it.

4. Wireless Computers: If you are using wireless security such as

WEP encryption, WPA security, or MAC address filtering, make sure that your computer is configured for the correct security settings. If you are using MAC address filtering on the Router, make sure that the computer’s MAC address is entered in the

“Allow List”.

What’s the difference between 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11a?

Currently there are three levels of wireless networking standards, which transmit data at very different maximum speeds. Each is based on the designation 802.11x, 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. See the following chart for more detailed information.
