Computer sees belkin 54g, shows all bars, when

HP Pavilion dv6226us computer sees belkin 54g, shows all bars, when tries to connect says it has low signal and cannot connect. I have tried everything as I am pretty good with computers. Last night I even went to the router page and logged in. I checked everything. I changed the SSID but nothing else. I've dropped the firewall. The computer was connecting wirelessly until 5 July 09.
HP Touchscreen iq770 was working fine with my wireless HP Officejet 7700 until 6 July. Now I cannot connect to it either.
I have reset and rebooted the router.
I have shutdown the whole network, in sequence, waited 30 seconds and brought it back up in sequence.
I have reset the bios on both computers.
I have reloaded the printer software on the Touchsmart.
My only option is that it is the router.

Make sure that your router is set for an "encryption system" that is similar to all your computers and mobile devices. Example, if your router is set to encrypt using WAP2, make sure all your devices connect and is capable to connect using WAP2. Or else, set it to WAP and set your devices to WAP also.

Regards!

Cant connect belkin 54g router to internet

If you connect the computer directly to the modem, does it work?
If that works then the modem is working.
Now connect the computer to the router and the modem to the router.
You will need to open the set up page of the router to check the settings of the router.
You can set up the router without the CD also.
It is very easy.

I have tried to install router strait from modem to router to toshiba l30 laptop belkin shows up on laptop showing excellent signal but when i try to go on web it cannot make contact

access your routers administration by right clicking your network icon and using your gateway IP to access http://*gateway*
un - admin pw - (none), admin, public
look at your status in the belkin administration settings and see if you have an ip and gateway for your ISP.  The ip and gatway on your computer is for your belkin.
Try directly connecting the laptop to the router with a cable and see if it's on the net. If it is then you have wireless settings wrong. See belkin.com for more infor about router.
