hello im having a problem with the belkin F5D7230-4 i am on virgin media broadband with no phone the problem is that the computer can not find the router when i go through the disk to install i get as far as plugging in the router and the only lights what show are power and the number 1 all the wires are in the correct places as i have rung belkin about it but they are useless they told me to type cmd in run and then in command prompt type ipconfig which i did then they said to ring virgin media which i did but at a pound per min it did not last long can someone help me please
how are you connected to the router, ethernet cable or usb? if ethernet cable then no need for the install disk.
not according to these links. http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=2470291#Specifications http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=136493 are you connected to a dsl or cable modem or what?
did you connect the modem to wan port of the router using an ethernet cable & then connect the router from 1 of it's 4 ports to your ethernet port on your computer using another ethernet cable? what windows are you using?
when i contacted belkin and virgin media they told me which wires go where and not to use the usb cable but nothing showed in network conections when i removed the usb cable so the only way to get onto the internet is via the blue usb cable i am using windows pro
is your network card enabled in device manager? goto network connections, right click on network card, do properties & put check mark in box to show connection in taskbar.
is your netcard intergrated into your motherboard or a pci card? as your card does not show in device manager & if intergrated into motherboard then it is disabled in the bios so enable it in the bios. will need motherboard disk to load netcard driver if xp doesn't load it's own driver.
driver page link & appears to be a broadcom netcard. http://support.dell.com/support/dow...ystemID=PLX_GX280&os=WW1&osl=en&catid=&impid=
download the 2nd broadcom marked as driver, recommended, 9/19/2006. goto Entering System Setup in this link. http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/opgx280/en/ug/advfeat0.htm#wp1132957 enable your netcard in NIC Controller section
