Hi,
I have been trying for weeks to figure it out, with no luck, so hopefully one of you will be able to help.
When I 1st installed the wireless router, I couldn't get it to connect to the pc, yet managed to connect to laptop, ps3, etc.
I realised today that the wireless adapter in my pc was missing!! so I re-installed it & thought that would be the end of it, but no.
When I tried to set up a network connection it said windows could not configure, I realised that it was running through belkin wireless utility.
Belkin is saying im connected, yet I cant access the internet??
Help me please
