I just connected my Ethernet cable and had my pc join the built in network. I personally don't like those extenders

What kind of software support you want. Router has own interface ans user menual show everything. If you want any kind of interface support let me know i help you

Sounds like at some point and time that they did their jobs and took a power hit. Now because of that the batteries inside them are no longer able to do their jobs. You can try taking one of the units and have the battery changed out for a new one. Or if you are handy you can try it yourself. This is usually the problem and had been the problem on all of mine so far. Just bought a new battery for them and they were fine BUT this is based on MY experience alone. Your experience might be different. Hope this helps.

You probably need some service technician's guidance for closing this issue.

The password and router logon should be listed on a label on the back of the router.. IF it is not then you need to figure out what the address is to connect to it with a browser or a setup disk. The ISP should have all the info that you need to do this.

Any router that you cannot remember the password to your only choice is to reset the router to factory default and reconfigure it. To reset a Belkin router: Press and hold the Reset button for 15 seconds. The router automatically reboots when it resets. Wait approximately one minute until the router restarts, and then navigate to "192.168.2.1" using any Web browser. Leave the Password field blank and click "Submit" to connect to the Web-based interface

Grandkids should see SSID on their computer if it is being broadcast by your modem ( you probably have modem/ router) if they don't see SSID , your modem may have broadcast SSID set to off. If they can see it, have them enter your password. Passwords are case sensative .

couldn't hurt to try a new one, but be warned, different manufacturers cards can get different speeds depending on the router you are connecting to.

Your set may have a defective wi fi detection circuit that is causing all the grief. I had to return a laptop for this reason. Maybe the signal is weak - try raising the router as high as possible off the floor and also try putting a deflector behind the router to direct the signals in the direction of tv set to maximize strength.

I haven't had that trouble but I just wanted to mention some of the WLAN analyser apps can be quite useful.

Unfortunately wireless routers fail somewhere after the warranty runs out. I have never gotten 5 years out of a router by any different manufacturers. Nothing in the settings except for the hours of operation will stop the router from working. If you have never made the time settings, then the router has failed internally.

Have you gotten the latest driver for the Belkin? How far is the Belkin from the router. Use the cable and base with the Belkin and put it as close to the ceiling as you can. If the router is on the floor or on the desk, relocate it to a higher location.

Does the surge protector have a "in and out" phone socket? Plug everything into the "out" side and then run a "phone wire" from the "in" side into the wall socket,.. you should be protected.. You are putting "all your stuff" after the surge protector.. so the surge protector can do its job..

Try opening the Network Control Panel on the MacBook. Select the TCP/IP tab, then click Advanced. Note the list of IP address numbers. Click the "Renew DHCP Lease" button and see what changed. Most likely all of them did, in particular the "Internet Gateway" and "DNS server" addresses. The first is the connection between the D-Link router and your ISP, and the other addresses are for servers that translate your web browser URLs into the IP addresses for the web sites you want to see. The Gateway and DNS server addresses have to match those in the upstream router(s). The routers must have current IP addresses assigned by the routers upstream, and any client computer must have a current address assigned by the first route upstream. You can check into this by logging in to the webpages for your routers and examining the status reports. Apparently one of the devices in the chain fails to obtain a new IP address when the D-Link router is powered on. I suspect it is the Belkin router. A computer with an expired DHCP lease will probably be using the Internet gateway IP address assigned to the D-Link router when it was on before (in a busy neighborhood, that address would have been re-assigned to some other household). The Windows system may be sending a request for DHCP renewal up the line, which triggers the Belkin router to ask for the same from the D-Link unit, but it may be ignoring the signal from the MacBook or not getting one. If the MacBook successfully gets online with a manual Renew DHCP Lease request, obtain the owner's manual for your Belkin router (find the model number, then go to the Belkin support/downloads page for that model). See what settings are available to automate the DHCP renewal process.

Please check the Network Range B/G/N Signal. This could be the issue if other aplications are able to connect.
