Problem for Belkin (F5D5231-4) Router

Unable to encrypt router

By dendon2 on Jun 04, 2009

" "

I have entered the WEP key and am accessing the internet with my laptop - the wireless network shows my network as unsecured on the list of networks shown. The one listed below mine has a shorter number and says security-enabled wireless network (WPA). Shouldn't mine also say secureity enabled?

Check to ensure that you have "enabled" the security setting.Entering a key may not be enough, you might have to switch the security ON.

you have to check if you have the wep key enabled. when you put in the wep key, it should also be enabled so that your wireless network should say security-enabled wireless network. make sure to disconnect and connect again on your network after changing the settings to refresh your connection. hope this helps.
