Hello,
Connect your computer directly to your cable or DSL modem. If you see a log-in screen for your Internet Service Provider, make a note of the user name and password. Unplug your router and your cable or DSL modem. Plug your modem to your Belkin router's "WAN" port. Connect your computer to one of your Belkin router's numbered ports. Turn on in your modem and wait 10 seconds. Plug in your router and restart your computer. Select "Start," then "Control Panel" and then "Network Connections." Right-click "Local Area Connection" to bring up your network connection properties.

If you are prompted for a user name and password, enter the information you recorded in Step 1.

if you truly reset your router then you may have to reconfigure it. If your belkin router is also your dsl modem or cable modem then you will have to call your ISP provider and get your user id and password to start with.
I have a feeling this device does double as your modem since you now cannot connect. Most routers will work as a router right out of the box. However if your modem is seperate then it may expect your router to have a different subnet for its IP address then the default. Try plugging your computer directly into the modem if that is the case. If it works then just reset the routers IP address to be on the same subnet.

Your new ISP is DSL. the router was working before with the cable modem. The settings for the cable and DSL ISP are different. Now your computer is working when you connect it directly to the DSL modem. that means the modem is working.
The DSL modem works on 2 different modes.
You will need to check which mode is your modem working on and according to the settings of your modem you will need to set up the router.
To change the settings of the router, you will need to open the set up page of the router.
Click Here for more information about the router set up.

So if you connect the computer directly to the modem , it works .
That means your modem is working properly. Your ISP is DSL connection. Now connect the modem to the router and the computer to the router. Open the router xet up page and change the settings of the router according to the type of connection you have.
There are 2 types of connection in DSL.
DHCP and PPPOE .

Click Here for step by step instructions

1) With direct connect with modem, check the IP address and default gateway.
(I came across such a modem, it gave default gateway as 192.168.1.254)
I also had the doubt of configuring as a dynamic connection
But it won't work!
Contact your ISP to completely bridge the modem and configure the dsl modem as PPPoE connection with correct username and password.
Finally connect the modem to router and do a complete network power cycle, i.e.: Unplug power from router 1st, then power from modem, unplug the telephone line and now do the exact reverse process... Plug back the tel. cable, then power to modem... now WAIT for lights on modem to come back, then plug in the power to router. This will surely work.

Hi, Here is your solution.
Please ensure the proper physical connection from modem to router and to the computer as mentioned on the box and make your all lights are on modem.After that turn on the router,if your have a cable modem, you can very well go for a hard reset,that it is at the back of your router you would see a reset button which is a button inside a hole. Please hold the button for 20 secs with power on router and 20 seconds without power continuously for 3mins (remember to hold the reset button through out 3 mins while plugin and plugout the power cord of the router and use pin or pen to hold the button). After this check out the lights on your router, lan light, internet ,power and modem should be solid.Else you can call the customer service number on the product box, they will assit you very well,ITS A TOLL FREE NUMBER.

Connect network cable from your current DSL modem to the WAN port (or internet port) on the back of the wireless router. It should detect the connection automatically.
If not, then try running the CD software that came with the device. It should setup everything correctly.

your modem is not the same...... the red/green arrows does not apply as it is for the other device

you need to log into you modem (the quick setup guide will tell you how to do this)

the status page will tell you if you are connected on adsl (there is also a link light on the modem itself which goes solid on (not flashing) when connected properly

if on the status page it is not reading as connected you need to check your logon info and check the logs to see why it is not connecting..

if it reports that it is connected, then there are a few system properties that you need to check.

open Internet properties (right click on intenet explorer, choose internet options) in the connection menu, choose "Never dial a connection" press Apply, then press "LAN settings" button and tick box "Automatically detect settings"

close Internet explorer then open internet explorer, it should spend a few seconds checking your settings then it should get out to the internet..

job done...
