SOURCE: Cannot connect Belkin F5D8233-4 Router to Mac Laptop

Hi, I had the same problem with my MBP and the best solution I found was:
Dissable the Wlan security and use Mac Address control only for the wireless. This will keep your network secure anyway and you can connect normally.

The only inconvenience is that when you want to connect other computers to your wireless you have to enter its MAC address on the list.

Remember to set the list as Allow.

Check for a firmware update and, if that doesn't work, call Belkin and discuss a possible warranty replacement.

I have had nothing but problems with their equipment and do not recommend it.

SOURCE: Trying to create a bridge with two routers

You do not need a bridge if you are using a wireless adaptor on your pc in the other room. Just set up the Belkin Plus router to the WEP security settings you want and make sure the pc wireless usb adaptor has the same settings as the router. You should be good to go. Good Luck.

First reset your router to factory defaults.
You can reset it with RESET button press it for 10 secondsd it is in back side of router.
Then connect your router to comuter with ethernet cable then you can access it with following link.
http://192.168.1.1
or
http://192.168.0.1
for belkin router
http://192.168.15.1

user name as "admin" and if it want password then "admin" or blank or "password"

Then you can access it's configuration.
Let me know if you need more assistanse.

I got a problem in connecting my samsung galaxy GT-7500 to sitecom extender 300N .. I have tried to change the IP address but it doesn't work with me . Any help plz?

Which modes are you trying to use this Sitecom? If you have the Sitecom as your Access Point (AP Mode), then you would need a LAN connection to your internet gateway (DSL, Cable Modem, etc). I didn't see any LAN hook up so I assume you are trying to use it as a wireless repeater. So you need to configure the unit differently. The 3rd mode is called Bridge mode. Again, you need to have a LAN hook up to your local network with a router or network switch.
Because your Tablet is connecting to the Sitecom okay, which mean that you either have the Sitecom setting for AP mode or Bridge mode. And the reason it didn't give you access to internet because there is no internet gateway connection to the Sitecom (LAN). I hope this answer your question (or confuse you totally).

I cannot switch off the DHCP in the WL330 sitecom

You can find the user manual here: http://www.sitecom.com/wireless-range-extender-300n/p/714. I don't know your specific software, but on mine you have to click on every page to save changes. If you make all changes then save it will not save all changes.

Hi, I'm having problems connecting to the router (Virgin) to my bedroom from lost of signal strength, so i brought Sitecom Wireless Range Extender 300N to boast the signal. I've installed the Range...

1. did you first try to connect to the router via wire directly with it in the same room? then set up the wireless to work in the same room too.

2. once you've done that and it worked then move it to your bedroom. If it doesn't work there it could be that there is something inbetween the two rooms that is blocking the signal...ie a furnace can do that

3. if it won't work try relocating the router to another location. Try a different location in the same room first

but as i said , first get it set up and running in the same room so you know for sure it works.

I have a Sitecom wireless range extender 300N nd am trying to set it up following the manual. I reach the point where I have to enter the IP address into my web browser to be able to put my user name and...

I have had 2 of these extenders, first one worked until I got a virus and had to reset the settings. After that it only worked for a minute at a time, lost my temper and smashed it with a hammer. Got another one, determined not to smash it I went through the instructions following them step by step. I did this twice and STILL nothing. Works when connected to my router via an Ethernet cable, does not work wirelessly. I am resisting the urge to throw it out of the window and will be returning it to maplins later on today. Load of ****!

My Sitecom 300N repeater resularly loses its connection to my BT homehub. I think this is when the H homehub goes down sometimes. Resetting the Sitecom from scratch is a pain but resolves the problem. 3...

I also had this problem when the BTHomeHub goes down, power loss etc. I seem to have fixed the problem by changing the wireless config in the homehub to use a fixed channel, (the default is automatic which means it changes each time it restarts). This has been running trouble free for a couple of weeks through a number of power outages.

Can't help with Qs 2&3, get the same problems but less of an issue now that the thing works all the time.

Having Problem Acquiring IP Address

when using the range extender you have to make sure you set the SSID, channel & wireless key in the range extender the exact same as the router also it has to be in the same IP range so if the router IP address is 192.168.0.1 the range extender IP address has to change from 192.168.1.240 to 19.168.0.240. Hope that helps.
