i am tearing my hair out, i really hope one of you guys can help me..

the prob is i cant connect to the internet via my router, the internet works fine thru my modem but the router doesnt work. ive reset it, changed my ip address and it still keeps happening..
ive spoken to blkin tech support and they are useless they keep telling me to reset it, which i do and thats all they can suggest..
its been going on for months as its intermettiant..

hope someone can help, thanks

i had the same problem when i had a belkin router. i got so fed up i went to pc world and changed it for a linksys. never had problems with linksys so i will swear by them. my advice stay away from belkin and if poss go take it back.

unless other people can tell you how to fix the problem of course.

cheers hun, think i might have to take it back.. and hopefully swop it for a linksys one

twisted. just out of interest who is your internet service provider??? reason i ask it alot of isp's Aol for one does not support belkin. your best bet is to get a netgear from currys there on offer too lol.

Just a question I presume the router is plugged into your computer via the LAN port? If so have you swoppped your internet settings to connect via LAN?

In internet options under the Connections tab it should be set to "Never dial a connection" and then the LAN to "Automatically Detect Settings" because your router is always connected.

If i was you restore your system start from fresh, make sure you dont install any firewalls until u know your router is up and running.Belkin are pretty good normally.

I bought a Linksys router from Tesco and it has worked perfectly ever since I bought it and no lost internet connections. Only thing I would say against it is the power transformer has a buzz which can get a bit annoying if you have the router in your bedroom.

Hope you havent gone and got what they tell you to get...i worked for that company for 2 years, the only reason netgear is supported is because thats what the guys at AOL have on their computer. Belkin are very reliable and i have setup plenty of networks with them.

if you give me a bit more of the problem i will try and help over here.
