Belkin F5D7633-4 connection problem

I have a problem with my router, its probably been explained before though.
I felt like I had to reset my router to see if it would fix some website problem ie I couldn't connect to hotmail etc. Everything else was fine. However after I reset the router I cannot get onto the internet and I ran a diagnostic and it came up with a DNS problem. All the settings are as they were before I reset it, but I am not clear as to why it cannot connect to the internet. I've tried resetting many times but still the same outcome. My ISP is orange so I don't know if their DNS server is down. Also I'm running vista but that hasn't been a problem before. Any Suggestions cheers

There was probably a problem with Hotmail in the first place not your router. Restart the router and wait a few minutes . If the words 'connected' come up at the right of your screen then the router is working fine. Web site access problems are probably due to settings in internet options.

Consider using OpenDNS. You can find it at https://www.opendns.com/
It's nameservers are: 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220.

I'll skip the details why they are hundreds of times better than your ISP's nameservers, but they list the reasons on their site. Give it a try and see if it will work.

Wireless installation

Sorry but i didn't get it, Do you forget the Network Key of your wireless of you forget the login password for your belkin router?

Let me tell you both solutions.

1 If you forget the network key - then you can login to your belkin router and go to the wireless and you will get your network key there.

2 If you forget he login password of your belkin router so just look at the back side of router there must be a reset button which will reset your router and password to the factory date.

hope it will help you :)

My mac laptop can't connect to belkin n300 router wirelessly

There is a small piece of paper underneath the router with original passwords, and the default was WPA security.
Hold the reset in the back till it cycles to remove any custom settings.

How do i connect this item to my comuter?

Does your computer have wireless capability?

If yes, just click connect to a network and try to find a network (its SSID) that is probably called belkin or something similar.

If no, just use a ethernet cable to connect it directly to your computer. Make sure you don't connect it to the modem port though and power them all on after you connect the cables.

I have a wna1100v1 usb wireless adapter that is on my home pc and i need to access the internet via the belkin router my comp shows a possitive connection with signal strength of 75%. But i can't connect...

It could be a number of things. Most of them would be very hard to explain on this website. I will try to explain though.

*Make sure you installed the wna1100v1 drivers and software.
*Try restarting everything. Computer and router.
*Unplug router, wait a minute. Plug back in. Allow time for router to reestablish internet connection.

Hmm...there are a few others but they are a bit harder to explain.

Thanks.

Belkin Wireless Modem Router, model F5D7634-4.

If the reset did not help ,i would suggest you talk to the Belkin Support team and get a replacement. Since its a new router, I assume it has an up to date firmware .

Cannot finish installation (Belkin F5D8633-4 wireless modem router N mimo)

ok, obvious questions first:

Do you have a different modem from TALKTALK? can you connect to the internet through that?

if so, you may not have to set a username and password for the belkin router: just connect the belkin router's internet port to the talktalk modem and let the talktalk modem handle the automatic connection.

do you know what protocol the talktalk ISP uses?  it's probably PPPOE; make certain that your belkin router is set to the correct protocol.  if you just hook it up to the talktalk modem though, you probably won't have to specificy a protocol at all.

Router loses connection to Internet

Note : The steps below are applicable only for Belkin routers.
  1. Open an Internet Explorer window on your computer and type in http://192.168.2.1 in the address bar. This will take you to the Belkin router's web based configuration page. If you are not able to open the page click here.
  2. You will get a login page. Leave the password blank. Click Submit .
  3. On the left side of the page, click Channel and SSID below Wireless .
  4. The wireless channel on the Belkin router is set to Auto by defualt. Change the wireless to a static channel. Click Apply Changes .
  5. Click Logout in the top right hand corner.
Note: The wireless card in the computer will automatically detect the change in channel number on the router and will update the channel on the card.
CauseYou are not able to connect wirelessly mainly due to environmental interference. When the wireless channel is set to auto, the router will cycle to though channels when it detects significant interference. When the router changes channel the wireless connection will reset itself and disconnect all wireless clients connected to the router. SummaryWireless signals are prone to interference from cordless phones and electrical appliances (e.g., vacuum cleaners, microwave ovens). This is the reason wireless connections can drop. This article explains how to overcome frequent wireless disconnections by changing the channel number (frequency) on the Belkin router.
