A few major issues were found via testers/customers which were forwarded to Belkin tech, a new firmware may of been released for whatever model you have.
Go to 192.168.2.1 and on the homepage it should tell you the model number.
Go to Belkin-uk > support > firmware updates > and input your router details (3 steps)
save and download the firmware then update it via 192.168.2.1 > left hand side > firmware updates >browser > update.
Theres an auto update feature within the firmware updates page on Belkins web interface and also on admin I think, it sucks, do it the manual way (as stated above).
I use to own a Belkins router, a few in fact but lost my nerve with them. Go through all the settings and set it up properly and secure. If your laptop/wireless device still doesn't connect then having a look whether theres an issue there. Check what adapter you have within the device and make sure the router it set up to accept connections from it.... B/G/N etc.
You've also got tech support with the router so you can chat to belkins via their online chat on the support page, an advisor should help you correcting the issues.
PM me if nothing works.
