Given what you've posted above, it looks most definitely like it's not "as advertised" since there's nothing to suggest that it's *not* compatible with your set-up and, in fact it says "Compatibile with all 802.11b devices" which rather contradicts their statement:
"Access points/Routers of different brands or of the 802.11b standard will not communicate wirelessly with the Belkin 54g access point/router."
It sounds as if you've got a very good case for getting a full refund.

Getting a refund won't be a problem.
My main beef was that Belkin couldn't really have given a to$$. They were so blase about the whole thing it was amazing.
They were just like
"Oh, you need to speak to Tech Support" 
& couldn't grasp that I had already been there/done that & established that it wouldn't work, & that I wanted to speak to sopmeone about their (misleading?) advertising-they picked the wrong person to try to play telephone ping pong with!
I just feel Belkin should have attempted to resolve the situation more than they did-they had an opportunity to sell me a Belkin router that would (alledgedly!) have done the job, & had they offered some kind of discount due to their error I would have bought one-now as it is, I have returned the WAP & will never touch Belkin again.
