I have 2 x Belkin N1 vision dsl (cable) routers. One is connected fine with Virgin 20 meg broadband. Is it possible to use the other N1 vision router as a range extender up stairs to get better signal , without using any cat5 cabling ? I.e router-to-router

Firewall ports need to be opened. Log into router and turn on DMZ to your computer. Find your IP address on your machine 192.168.X.X and put that into DMZ settings or open up appropriate ports for VPN

It might be an idea to upgrade the firmware which can be downloaded from manufacturers' website

Probably the router is blocking the port that is used to receive emails. Are you using an email client to send/received your mails like Outlook? Does it work with out the router in place? You might wanna try changing the receiving port if you are using an email client. You can change it to 2525.

My N1 Vision does the same thing, If you turn off the guest account, you should find its ok. Only when this Guest account is on, thats when it disconnects. Hope this helps. John

Hi

i am fairly certain The WD my book external hard drive needs to have the correct software to be able to use and because routers dont have a CD drive i dont think you will be able to do it.

I searched for solution for some hours and find only questions, no usable answer.

So I had to start debugging myself.

Symptoms:

Router just stopped working one day by itself.

On boot the progress bar goes about 20% and hangs forever.

Screen backlight is wobbling a little.

What I did:

I cracked the router open and found that four of the capacitors were ballooned:

I changed the capacitors(470mF 6,3v or higher - about 1eur total sum.) and the router booted up once as new. Next time same problem - it boots on 20% and hangs.

That was the time I noticed that the screen was wobbling and I tested the router with another power adapter and voila - problem was finally fixed.

So, to fix the problem:

1. Try with another power adapter.
2. If that does not help, crack the router open and change those ballooned capacitors:

This is how to crack it open..Behind the sticker there are two screws:After removing them just crack it gently open. Those hooks are holding it together:Good Luck!Kalev

Wireless speakers and console controllers can causeinterference with the wireless router.5. Bluetooth devices, newer Bluetooth devices can jump todifferent frequencies if there is a connection problem.6. Power cables located near the wireless router can causedropouts and speed reduction.7. Fish tanks will cause massive Wi-Fi shadow on the otherside of the tank from the wireless router. 8. Depending upon the location of large mirrors will reflectwireless signal away your computer.9.

Disconct wireless devices...connect to pc via cable...Go to SSID settings... change bandwidth from 20/40mhz to 20mhz only ... rebooting issue will be soloved... link speed will show 65-150 Mbps .. bt dont worry.. u will get the whole bandwidth available .... after that reconnect wireless devices ... it wont reboot by itself ...

You can uplink a fairly good number of PCs or laptops with Belkin N1 as it supports high bandwidth. Keep in mind that upon adding every new PC, the overall bandwidth for the other PCs is reduced. If the PCs/ laptops do not require much bandwidth, you can connect / add more PCs to the network.
Generally, I have uplinked upto 10-15 clients to one router and the network worked just fine. It all depends upon the network environment and the bandwidth usage by each client PC. If the PCs are using just email and simple internet browsing (and remain idle for most of the time), you can add more clients to your network as not all the systems consume network resources at the same time.

Hope it helps! Good Luck!

When you only get 5 mbps are you connecting to the new router wirelessly or via the ethernet cable? If it is wirelessly then try connecting with an ethernet cable and see if you still get 5 mbps. If so then try resetting the router (the procedures for this will be explained in the manual) and re-test. Wireless connections can slow down due to obstacles such as thick walls or other obstacles of that type. If all else fails return the unit and try another.
