I have forgotten my security string onthe belkin

If you have forgotten the password, reset the Belkin by pushing and holding the reset button for 30 seconds or so and release, this will reset to default settings. Connect and reconfigure the SSID and Security Key. You may want to write down the password and store for future use. Belkin Support: http://www.belkin.com/us/support-article?rnId=6939

To find it, log into your router interface. You will need to open your browser, in the address bar type 192.168.2.1. Once you there, click on security on the right and the security will be there.

Ok here is your solution.

1. let me know your Windows operating system
2. check your Security type setting in your router
3. channel and SSID sharing
4. disable Firewall in router
   

Check your windows firewall and some anti virus who cant also block your signal.Go to setup page Belkin using 192.168.2.1

If you cant open it just reset router,go in the back of your router and locate the reset ping.
if you still cant do it just check your physical connection and go to command prompt using RUN and type CMD after ping router 192.168.2.1 and you will get a four answer and zero lose.
if you still cant do it ask me for a remote setup in your pc .

If you are able to open Belkin setup page using 192.168.2.1
Check all configurations and be sure you can setup it to wep64 bit security mode and your problem will be solved.

try this link.. shows how to secure your router. If you have already done this and have forgotten the password, you would have to reset the router to get it back to factory defaults.

hey what you can do is you can reset the entire router... by using the reset button on your belkin router... Or else you can also access the router by using the following IP address in the internet exlorer...

try 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.0 & then go to the wep settings & reset the router or change the password for the router...

Find the tiny button on the router, press and hold with a paperclip or pen while its still on and it will reset.

Go into your router's configuration page (see your router's manual for how to do this, it is an address that looks something like http://192.168.1.1). In there you want to find the wireless security section and change it to WEP security.

You will then need to enter a 64 or 128 bit WEP "key". This is your password to access the wireless network and the way you enter it is you enter a 10-character string (for 64 bit) or a 26-character string (for 128 bit) that contains only the numbers 0-9 and the letters A to F.

An example of 64 bit wep key is: 5145466d52
example of a 128 bit wep key: 3c2f2339483f2537373c57775f

Once you save your settings, your router should appear as a "secured" wireless network. When you try to connect, it will ask you for the key. Enter the same key you entered into the router.

That's it! The hardest part is finding the WEP section in the router's settings.
