Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Belkin Wireless G Plus MIMO Desktop Card (the

Card). Now you can take advantage of this great new technology and gain the

freedom to network your home and office computers wirelessly. This Card allows

you to connect a desktop computer to your network. The easy installation and

setup will have you networking wirelessly in minutes. Please be sure to read

through this User Manual completely, and pay special attention to the section

entitled “Placement of your Wireless Networking Hardware for Optimal

Performance” on page 2.

Benefits of a Home Network

Your Belkin Home Network will allow you to:

• Share one high-speed Internet connection with all the computers

in your home

• Share resources, such as files, and hard drives among all the

connected computers in your home

• Share a single printer with the entire family

• Share documents, music, video, and digital pictures

• Store, retrieve, and copy files from one computer to another

• Simultaneously play games online, check Internet email,

and chat

Advantages of a Wireless Network

Here are some of the advantages of setting up a Belkin wireless network:

• Mobility –you’ll no longer need a dedicated “computer room”— now you can

work on a networked laptop or desktop computer anywhere within your wireless

range

• Easy installation – Belkin Easy Installation Wizards make setup simple

• Flexibility – set up and access printers, computers, and other networking

devices from anywhere in your home

• Easy expansion – the wide range of Belkin networking products lets you

expand your network to include devices such as printers and gaming consoles

• No cabling required – you can spare the expense and hassle of retrofitting

Ethernet cabling throughout the home or office

• Widespread industry acceptance – choose from a wide range of

interoperable networking products

Placement of your Wireless Networking Hardware for Optimal Performance

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 farther 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 10 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. Placement of your Wireless Router (or Access Point)

Place your wireless router (or access point), the central connection point of your

network, as close as possible to the center of your wireless network devices.

To achieve the best wireless network coverage for your “wireless clients,” (i.e.

computers enabled by Belkin Wireless Notebook Cards, Wireless Desktop Cards,

and Wireless USB Adapters):

• Ensure that your wireless router’s (or access point’s) 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 center 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

2. Avoid Obstacles and Interference

F5D9000 revised manual

Page 4 of 62

Avoid placing your wireless router (or access point) near devices that may emit

radio “noise”, such as microwave ovens. Other objects that can inhibit wireless

communication can 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 Phone Placement

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 the wireless router (or access point)

and your wireless-enabled computers.

• Unplug and remove the battery from any cordless phone that operates on the

2.4GHz band (check manufacturer’s 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 farthest channel from your wireless network as possible. For example,

change the phone to channel 1 and move your wireless router (or access point)

to channel 11. (Your channel selection will vary depending on your region.) 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 of your Wireless Networking

Utility to locate any other wireless networks, and move your wireless router (or

access point) and computers to a channel as far away from other networks as

possible.

F5D9000 revised manual

Page 5 of 62

Experiment with more than one of the available channels, in order to find the

clearest connection and avoid interference from neighboring cordless phones or

other wireless devices.

For more Belkin wireless networking products, use the detailed Site Survey and

wireless channel information included in your User Manual.

5. Secure Connections, VPNs, and AOL

Secure connections 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

• The “Bring Your Own Access” program from America Online (AOL), which lets

you use AOL through broadband provided by another cable or DSL service

• Most online banking websites

• Many commercial websites that require a user name 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 or AOL software, or by re-logging into

the secure website.

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 in Windows, see the

“Power Options” item in the Control Panel.

If you continue to have difficulty with Secure Connections, VPNs, and AOL,

please review steps 1–4 above to be sure you have addressed these issues.

These guidelines should allow you to cover the maximum possible area with your

wireless router. Should you need to cover an even wider area, we suggest the

Belkin Wireless Range Extender/Access Point.
