Belkin (F5D7231-4) Wireless Router Logo

Related Topics:

Posted on Apr 11, 2009

Security I recently bought a Belkin adsl2 wireless g router for my Mum. At the moment the device isn't secure. Unfortunately Mum can't find the instructions. Is the number on the bottom of the router the key I need to secure the line and how do I do it. As you may have noticed I'm not very computer orientated.

    I think that this is what is needed. My Mum has a computer downstairs and my son has a laptop which he uses in his bedroom but when he connects to the internet it says that it is an unsecured line which means anyone in close proximity can use Mum's internet connection. I want to make it secure with a password.

Ok , you need to set up a WEP key
