In most cases there will be no problems connecting between your PC and your
(Modem) Router providing they are connected to one another. We would always
recommend initially attempting to open the User Interface of the Router from a PC
connected via Ethernet Cable to test connectivity, before assuming a problem and
undertaking troubleshooting.
To access the Web User Interface of any Belkin (Modem) Router simply open your
Internet Browser (i.e. Internet Explorer) and type the IP Address of the (Modem) Router
into the Address Bar. This is usually 192.168.2.1.
All being well the Web User Interface of the Belkin (Modem) Router should appear. If it
doesn’t then the following steps should be undertaken.
As a primary check you ensure that the PC and (Modem) Router are indeed capable of
‘talking’ to one another from a physical connectivity point of view. Please therefore
ensure the following;
•
The (Modem) Router and PC are both powered on.
•
An Ethernet (Patch) Cable is plugged between PC and one of the Router’s LAN Ports
•
There are lights illuminated by the PCs Ethernet (LAN) port.
•
There is a light on the Front Fascia of the Router indicating the LAN connection
If you are having problems connecting to the (Modem) Router via a Wireless (WLAN)
connection, then we would suggest establishing a wired connection as described
above in the first instance.
