Hi fox i had that belkin router and i binned it and bought an edimax br6104k and my internet has improved a lot.  That belkin router is an old one as i understand it and not very suited for these modern times.  I still have problems with the internet dropping out but not sure if thats the routers fault or VM and being a complete networking newbie is not helping.  I would say buy a new router and you should see an improvement.  If some kind knowledgable person on these forums knows of a guide to fully explain routers, their settings and stuff in nice laymen terms i know i would greatly appreciate it
