belkin wireless router security button

Why isn’t my belkin 54g router secure?

I just bought a Belkin 54g wireless router this weekend. I installed it and it works fine except that when I try to connect wirelessly, it shows up as an unsecured network. Now, when I set the thing up, I clicked on the “network security” button, selected WPA, entered a network key, and hit submit. It gave me no error messages so I assumed that I had enabled the security, but it still shows up as an unsecured network. How do I fix this?
Please explain everything thoroughly and simply…I know almost nothing about how the internet works or pc networking so acronyms like “MAC” have no meaning to me.

Type in 192.168.2.1. into a browser window.

The router config utilty will load.
Default login is left blank.
Click on System Settings, leave first box blank and in second and third boxes add new password, you must be able to remember this.
Scroll down and click Apply changes.

Next, click on Channel and SSID, in SSID box give your connection a unique name, Untick Broadcast SSID, Protected Mode should be On.
Again Apply Changes.

Then click Security, in Security Mode select WPA, WPA (PSK) or WPA 2, do not use WEP as it is too weak.
Encryption Technique set to AES
Pre-shared Key (PSK) is where you enter your password for other computers to connect to your network.
make this different to your login password and tick Obscure PSK, Apply Changes

Click on Use as Access Point and select Disable, Apply Changes.

Click on MAC address filtering and enter the MAC address of each computer that will be allowed access to your network, Apply Changes.

WAN Ping Blocking, tick Block ICMP Ping, Apply Changes.

Then Logout.

For each computer that connects to your network they will need the network name (SSID) and password (Pre-shared Key (PSK))
