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 Belkin 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.  
 
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
