Important: A WEP key is a combination of numbers and letters from
A–F and 0–9. For 128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26 characters.
This network key needs to match the key you assign to your
wireless router (or access point).
For example:
C3 03 0F AF 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 E4 = 128-bit key

Problem:
Do Belkin products support WPA?
Solution:
To use WPA security, all your clients must be upgraded to drivers
and software that support it. At the time of this FAQ publication, a
security patch download is available, for free, from Microsoft. This
patch works only with the Windows XP operating system.
Download the patch here:

You also need to download the latest driver for your Belkin Wireless
G Desktop or Notebook Network Card from the Belkin support
site. Other operating systems are not supported at this time. The
Microsoft patch only supports devices with WPA-enabled drivers
such as Belkin 802.11g products.
Download the latest driver at http://web.belkin.com/support for
the following products:
F5D7000, F5D7001, F5D7010, F5D7011, F5D7230-4, F5D7231-4, F5D7130
