Hi Christopher s crisp,
Is it blinking Orange or steady?
Blinking amber: The Router can't detect the modem. Either the
modem is off, is not plugged into the Router, or is unresponsive.
It could be the modem.
You can try connecting the modem directly to computer bypassing the router and see if that works.
Check the LED on Modem.
Do you have other computers to test the connection?
Might need to talk to ISP if issue with Modem.

Let me know.
Thanks

SOURCE: Modem Light Blinking Orange

I wouldn't be too concerned about that. Probably just does it when it is adjusting.

SOURCE: Belkin F5D8236-4 Wireless Router will not connect

1) With direct connect with modem, check the IP address and default gateway.
(I came across such a modem, it gave default gateway as 192.168.1.254)
I also had the doubt of configuring as a dynamic connection
But it won't work!
Contact your ISP to completely bridge the modem and configure the dsl modem as PPPoE connection with correct username and password.
Finally connect the modem to router and do a complete network power cycle, i.e.: Unplug power from router 1st, then power from modem, unplug the telephone line and now do the exact reverse process... Plug back the tel. cable, then power to modem... now WAIT for lights on modem to come back, then plug in the power to router. This will surely work.

N300 router has a steady orange blinking light

The blinking orange power light suggests that there is a problem with your modem. The modem should be plugged into the top ethernet port of your router. Try turning off your modem for 10 seconds and then turning it back on.

No signal to my pc, the blue light goes to orange on the belkin

login problems to and from modem.

check your dsl lights or cable lights

and also make sure you are plugged in to the WAN part from the modem to router.

Once you have that check turn off modem for 3 minutes also have router turned off.
turn on router first wait 1 minutes then turn on modem. you might have to reset router to defaults.
depends of you bought it new then i wouldnt worry about resetting it.

Unplug both devices, the plug in router first then plug in modem to see if that helps.
you might need to get the PPPOE setting too. usually its the full email address and password.
since you gave no detail on what comapny you have and what service you have im shooting in the dark here. :)
