I have a belkin basic wireless router model#F7D1301 v1 i downloaded the cd and the software is ready but the router doesn't connect to the internet and my pc isn't working either can some one please help me.....

Steps to setup Belkin wireless router f7d1301 v1 to a modem.

1. Make sure that your modem works by connecting the modem directly to your computer.
2. If the modem works connect the modem to the router then the router to your computer.
3. Log into your belkin router address (default) 192.168.2.1
4. Login with password (Before you can change any settings, you need to login with a password. If you have not yet set a custom password, then leave this field blank and click "Submit.").
1. Leave password section blank and click submit.
5. Go to Utilities > Restore Factory Defaults on left hand side navigation. (Using this option will restore all of the settings in the Router to the factory (default) settings. It is recommended that you backup your settings before you restore all of the defaults. To restore the factory default settings, click the "Restore Defaults" button below.)
1. Click the "Restore Defaults" (Router is rebooting seconds remaining.)
6. Login with password (Before you can change any settings, you need to login with a password. If you have not yet set a custom password, then leave this field blank and click "Submit.").
7. Go to WAN > MAC Address on left hand side navigation. (Some ISPs require that you clone (copy) the MAC address of your computer's network card into the Router. If you are not sure then simply clone the MAC address of the computer that was originally connected to the modem before installing the Router. Cloning your MAC address will not cause any problems with your network)
1. Hit Clone (Clone Computer's MAC Address)
8. Got to Wireless > Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) on left hand side navigation. (Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is the industry standard method to simplify the security setup and management of the Wi-Fi networks. You now can easily setup and connect to a WPA-enabled 802.11 network with WPS-certificated devices using either Personal Information Number (PIN) or Push Button Configuration (PBC) method. Legacy devices without WPS can be added to the network using the traditional manual configuration method.)
1. Click on the drop down box next to Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)and select Disable.
9. Got to Wireless > Security on left hand side navigation.
1. Click on the drop down box next to Security Mode and select 64bit WEP.
2. Change Key 1 to your phone number (2 digits in each box with area code included.) Your phone number is your password when setting up a wireless connection.
3. Apply changes.
10. Got to Wireless > Channel and SSID on left hand side navigation.
1. Click on the drop down box next to Wireless Channel > and select 6.
2. Click on the drop down box next to Extension Channel > and select 2 (if not already on it).
3. Click on the box next to SSID > and enter a new name (you can use any combo of letters or numbers). Write this down because it will be necessary to enter this information when connecting wirelessly.
4. Apply changes.
