Installation CD-ROM does not start Wireless
Networking Utility.
If the CD-ROM does not start the Wireless Networking Utility
automatically, it could be that the computer is running other
applications that are interfering with the CD drive.
If the Wireless Networking Utility screen does not appear within
15–20 seconds, open up your CD-ROM drive by double-clicking
on the “My Computer” icon. Next, double-click on the CD-ROM
drive that the Installation CD has been placed in to start the
installation. Then double-click on the folder named “Files”. Next,
double-click on the icon named “Setup.exe”.
Power LED does not come ON; Card is not working.
If the LED indicators are not ON, the problem may be that the
Card is not connected or installed properly.
Verify that the Card is plugged firmly into the PCI slot of your
computer. Check to see that the drivers for the Card have
been installed. Right-click on the “My Computer” icon on your
desktop. Choose “Properties” and navigate to the “Device
Manager” and see if your Card is listed without any errors. If an
error is indicated, contact Belkin Technical Support.
Link LED is blinking slowly; cannot connect to a wireless
network or the Internet.
If your Card appears to be functioning properly, but you cannot
connect to a network or you have a red wireless icon at the
bottom of your screen, the problem may be that there is a
mismatch between the network name (SSID) settings in your
wireless network properties.
Check the SSID settings to see if they match. The SSID is
case-sensitive and the spelling on each computer must be
exactly the same in order for the Card to connect to the
wireless router (or access point).
Note: To check the SSID settings or look for an available
network, double-click the Signal Indicator icon to bring up the
“Wireless Networks” screen. Click “Add” if you do not see the
network you are trying to connect to and type in the SSID.
For more information about setting up an SSID, please refer to
your router manufacturer’s user manual.
If issues persist even at close range, please contact Belkin
Technical Support.
