I'm trying to install a Belkin wireless router. The router was given to me by a friend so I don't have installation instructions. I'm not having any luck. When I hoop up the router to the desktop I lose all internet capabilities on the desktop.

belkin does not support this. The only way you can do it is by running a cable to the router to extend your wireless signal around the house. I did a similar setup with a powerline network adapter if running a cat5 cable is not a option. just make sure you change the main ip address for the 2nd router to like 192.168.2.2 and disable dhcp since the main router will handle dhcp. also make sure the wireless settings are the same and channel is different if 1st router is channel 1 then use channel 6 or 11 for the 2nd router.
