Trying to install my Belkin router and my DSL provider wont help

What you are trying to do is a rather big job. Hire a company to connect the equipment properly. The headaches you save will be your own. If you install it, you will have to fix it everytime it goes out if you contract someone to install it and you buy a support contract when they install it, THEY get to come fix it and the headache is theirs, not yours. And NEVER install that type of router in an attic, they will overheat and fail very quickly.

Your Router Should Be Configured for your Internet Service Provider. To do that you have to contact your Belkin technical support & they will give you a hand. Or Please update some Details about your Internet connection who is your Internet Service Provider. What type of Internet Connection are you using is it DSL or Cable. And i will walk through the Steps For you... :)

You need to verify your connection type w/ Centurylink- they may run on DHCP which is a different connection protocol than PPPoE. If you have a static IP address, fair warning: the Verizon Actiontec is historically tetchy on static and NOT to be used as a primary modem/router- it will lose settings.

your router is not configured.... the connected light should glow... or the telephone symbol and globe symbol should glow...
to configure the router please follow the link accordingly....
click here for cable internet....
click here for DSL internet....
click here if you are having Embarq, Centurylink, Bell sympatico connection....

Please see the attached manual for the centurylink router and modem. There is a section discussing RIP direction. Normally it is set to none because it assumes the centurylink unit is your router. Change that setting to both and then reconnect your router and see what happens.

The link for the manual is:

If this works, please indicate so with your response. If not, then provide more information about what you have tried and how you are trying to set everything up.

Good Luck.

Go to the setup page for the router (IP 192.168.1.1) and set up the WPA-PSK [TKIP] security. It will allow fairly simple setup, and only provide the pass code to house members.

You need to first plug the DSL modem into the router. log on to the router. Configure the router byusing the user name and password as supplied by your dsl provider. once the router connects to your dsl provider, you should be able to connect your playstation to the wireless network.

1. Unplug your DSL modem’s power supply.

Find the cable connecting your modem and computer.
Unplug it from the modem and plug it into the gray port
on the Belkin Router.

If you are replacing an existing router, find the cable
connecting the computer and old router. Disconnect it from
the old router and plug it into the gray port on the new router.

2. Connect the new cable (provided in the box) to the yellow
port on the Router.

Plug the other end into the modem.

3. Plug in your modem’s power supply. Wait 60 seconds for the
modem to start up.

Plug the Router’s power supply into a wall outlet, and the
other end into the black port on the Belkin Router.

As the Router wakes up, lights will come on; recheck your
connections if the “power” and one of the “wired” lights
are not lit up in green after 20 seconds.

4. Locate the CD in this guide and insert it into your computer.
The Setup Assistant should appear automatically.
If it doesn’t, open the CD in My Computer and double-click on the
“Setup Assistant” icon.It will guide you through he rest of the setup.


If you need more help please post back,If this help please rate as a fixya.

can you get a phone number?

the router may be block by Virgin Media, so that way people can't steal internet from it (that is if you have it unsecured) you may have to set it up with virgin over the phone, or have a local broadband provider try to set it up
