To access Belkin's web based setup page type 192.168.2.1 on the address bar of the browser.

2. Enter the password while it prompts

By default there is no password set for the router and you just simply click submit button to log on to router setup page.

3. Setup the connection type ( Internet WAN)

Click on Internet WAN and select the connection type you want.

4. Setup Wireless feature in Belkin Router

To edit the wireless settings click on Wireless tab in the setup page. You can edit the Wireless network name and wireless channel here.

Wireless name (SSID) is the name of your wireless network. The most recommended wireless channel is 6. You can use wireless channel 1 and 11 too.

Under Wireless Channel and SSID should be like this:
• Wireless Channel: 6 (recommended, but you can use any number from 1-11)
 • Extension Channel: 2
• SSID = Type a name that you want to call your network (any name will do)
 • Wireless Mode: 802.11b/g/n
• Bandwidth: 40MHz (but you can also increase or decrease this)
 • Broadcast SSID: Yes (put a checkmark)
• Protected Mode: Off
Under Security:
• Security Mode: WPA/WPA2-Personal(PSK)
• Authentication: WPA2-PSK
• Encryption Technique: AES
• Password(PSK): (type a password for your network, it will accept numbers and letters)

Then Click Save.

Samsung password reset
Im assuming its a samsung phone
Samsung cell phones come with many security features.
In addition to the common feature of preventing calls after a period of inactivity, some Samsung phones also allow you to prevent others' use of your phone's SIM chip and access to your files.
One password unlocks the various locks, except for two other passwords used for the SIM chip. The syntax of the menu items to click to reset a password differ somewhat between Samsung models but you can figure out roughly how to apply instructions for one phone to another.

1
Lock the phone from making calls by clicking "Start" or "Menu," "Security Settings" (or "More" and then "Security"), and "Phone Lock" or "Device Lock."
Change the password by clicking "Start" or "Menu," "Security Settings," and "Change Password." Then enter a new password.

2
Set the phone to work only with the current SIM chip by clicking "Menu," "Security Settings," and "SIM Lock."
Enter a new password when prompted.

3
Prevent unauthorized use of your SIM card by clicking "Menu," "Security Settings," and "PIN Lock." Type a new PIN when prompted.
4
Prohibit access to your files, messages and contact list by clicking "Menu," "Security Settings," and "Privacy Lock."
Enter the password from Step 1 when prompted to unlock access.
Reset the file lock/messages/contact password by resetting the phone lock password, as in
Step 1

How do i unlock my d link
The first thing you should do upon completing a wireless connection with a D-Link router is to set up wireless security by accessing the router settings. This protects you against computer hackers trying to gain access to your bandwidth to commit fraud against you or others. It also restricts access away from those who live around you that would rather use your bandwidth instead of paying for their own. Unauthorized users can drastically slow your network speed.

1.Enter the IP address for the D-Link router into a web browser. The default address is 192.168.0.1. This address is typically located underneath the router. Load the page to access the login details.

2.Enter the login details. Refer to your records if necessary. The user name is usually "admin." Enter in your password. A blank password is the default. Load the page to access the router settings. Note: It's important to set a password, if you haven't already done so.

3.Click on the "Set Up" hyperlink and then click on the "Wireless Settings" hyperlink.

4.Scroll down until you see "Wireless Security Mode" and select your desired level of security from the drop-down. The type of security you select depends on the electronic equipment you want to connect to your network and the level of security you want to enable. See Resources for details on the different types of security available. If you are still unsure, WEP offers a decent level of security and works with almost all Wi-Fi enabled components like mobile phones, gaming equipment and laptops.

5.Enter in your desired password into the "Password" field and then enter in the password a second time in the "Re-Enter Password" field. Select "Save Setting" to enable wireless security on your D-Link Router.

Describe your AT&T BlackBerry Curve
BlackBerry smartphones support individual security passwords between four and 14 characters in length. The use of the password is designed to make sure that only the BlackBerry smartphone user can access the information stored on the BlackBerry smartphone.
The BlackBerry smartphone rejects less secure passwords, such as those composed of identical characters or those that consist of natural sequences (for example, 1234). In instances such as these, the BlackBerry smartphone will display the message The password cannot be a sequence.
Set a BlackBerry smartphone password
  1. From the Home screen of the BlackBerry smartphone, click Options.
  2. Click Security Options.
  3. Click General Settings. Note: If you are running BlackBerry® Device Software 4.0.2 or earlier, click Options, and then Security.
  4. Change the Password field to Enabled.
  5. Display the menu and click Save.
  6. Type your new password and click Enter.
  7. Verify your new password by typing it again and click Enter.

To turn on Security Timeout, complete the following steps:
  1. From the Home screen of the BlackBerry smartphone, click Options.
  2. Click Security Options.
  3. Click General Settings.
  4. Set the Security Timeout field to the amount of inactive time the BlackBerry smartphone is permitted before it is locked automatically.

Important: If a password in incorrectly typed ten consecutive times, all of the information on the BlackBerry smartphone is automatically deleted. This is a security feature.


Additional Information When the Security Timeout feature is set for a longer duration than the Backlight Timeout feature, the BlackBerry smartphone will lock automatically when the combined duration of the features has elapsed. For example, if the Backlight Timeout feature is set to dim after two minutes and the Security Timeout feature is set for 20 minutes, the BlackBerry smartphone will not automatically lock until 22 minutes has elapsed.
