Setting Up your Belkin Wireless Router or Access Point 10 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 (or access point) manual for directions on how to access the management interface. Changing the Wireless Security Settings The Belkin Wireless G Router and Belkin G Range Extender/Access Point are equipped with the latest WPA security feature. They also support the legacy WEP security standard. By default, wireless security is disabled. To enable security, you will need to determine which standard you want to use. To access the security settings, click "Security" on the wireless section using the web-based interface. (See your wireless router or access point manual for directions on how to access the security settings.) 19
