Providing you have a working connection to your Router information similar to that 
shown below will be displayed;

By default all Computer Network Interface Cards (NICs) are set to ‘Obtain an IP Address 
Automatically’ if the Network Card has done this then it will obtain one from the Router 
which is acting as a DHCP Server. The Information shown in the Screenshot above 
shows that this is happening correctly;

1. The DNS Suffix shows ‘Belkin’ – This is the ‘Hostname’ of the Belkin Router
2. The Default Gateway shows the Router’s IP Address (192.168.2.1) as used above.
3. The PC has successfully obtained a 192.168.2.x IP-Address from the Router

If you receive that same type of information as shown above then please try connecting 
to the User Interface of the Router via your Internet Browser again, as a Network 
Connection does seem to be present.

If you receive Information that is missing a ‘DNS Suffix’ and/or ‘Default Gateway’ or 
shows any other message including ‘Media Disconnected’ then please double check 
the Physical connections and if required continue with the troubleshooting as follows.
