Hi,
When we plug in any USB hard drive or printer, sometimes in this router it will not show the light but the hard driver/printer will be getting deducted.
But if its not getting deducted, then follow these steps,
1. Open up the internet explorer in the comp in which you are online and clear the address bar and type in the number 192.168.2.1 and hit enter. You will be logged into the Belkin router setup page.
2. In the left hand side click on Firewall , when its asking for the password to login, leave the password as blank and click on submit
3. You will find the firewall: ENABLED, change it to DISABLED and click on apply changes.
4. Then power cycle the router for 30 sec (Unplug the power cable of the router and plug it back in after 30 sec)
5. See whether the hard drive/printer is getting deducted even if there is no light for the USB in the back of the router.
6. Still if its not getting deducted, then disable the Firewall in your computer (Windows and other third party firewall like NORTON, SPYWARE, or other antivirus software.)
7. If still if its not getting deducted, Uninstall the Belkin router Monitor software from the ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS and then reinstall it using the CD.
8. Right click on the Belkin Belkin router Monitor icon on the lower right bottom corner in the task bar and click on CONNECTED USB DEVICES.
It will be deducted, if not the its obvious the router USB slot is defective. Replace the router in the stores if you have bought it within 30 days or contact BELKIN technical support 1 800 2235546(toll free) and get your router replaced.
With regards,
Prema.
