Initial Setup
Where to Place Your Router
For the best results, place the Router in an open location
away from large metal objects and magnets such aas those
found in speakers. Raising the Router above floor level
can improve the strength of your wireless signal.
How to Set It UP
1. Connect your Router’s ADSL cable to your phone jack or phone-
jack adapter (microfilter). If you are replacing an existing Router
or gateway, this may require unplugging the existing gateway.
Note: If required by your Internet Service Provider (ISP), plug the included
phone-jack adapter (microfilter) into your wall-mounted phone jack.
Please check with your provider before connecting your Router if you are
unsure whether or not you need to use the included phone-jack adapter.
2. Plug the Router’s power supply into a wall outlet.
3. If your PC has been installed with a wireless adapter,
search for wireless networks on your computer, connect to
the wireless network which matches the ‘’Network Name
(SSID)” on the label on the underside of your router.

by your ISP. This username and password is likely to be
found on materials that came from your ISP when you
signed up for service. If necessary, you may need to contact
your ISP to retrieve your username and password.
If you have a static IP address, you may need to enter
additional information also provided by your ISP.
If your PC has been installed with a wired network card, connect
your PC to a LAN interface of the Router using the Ethernet cable.

IP address automatically from modem, or set the IP address of the
computer as 192.168.2.X/255.255.255.0. The X is from 2 to 254.

can identify your Belkin Router by locating the network name
(SSID) from the card located underneath the foot of your Router.
3. Enter your network password (located on
your network information card).
Your wireless device will take a few moments to connect to your
network. If the connection is not made the first time, try this
process again. If you still have difficulty connecting to your network
after trying this process a few times, see the “Troubleshooting”
section in this manual for help with connecting to your network.
Note: In some cases you may be prompted to select the
security type. It is printed on the card for your convenience.
Using the WPS Button
1. Start WPS Push Button Connection (WPS PBC) on your
computer or other Wi-Fi device that you would like to
connect wirelessly to your Router. Often there will be a
button for this purpose in software that came with the
device, or a physical “WPS” button on the device itself.
2. Within two minutes, press the WPS button on your Router.
The WPS indicator will blink green while it listens for your
Wi-Fi device. Once a connection is established, the light will
turn green for about 5 minutes and then go out. If a connection
is not established, the light will blink green for 2 minutes and
30 seconds. You may repeat the process to try again.
You can repeat this process for each WPS-enabled
device you’d like to add to your network.
