I'm having some problems with using the N wireless setting on this router. I set it up a couple of days ago and followed all instructions correctly but when I configured it to n wireless it could only get up to .87 mbps and my old g router could get up to 20 mbps. I know I can configure it to g settings but I want n wireless to hopefully increase range. The firmware is up to date and I don't know what else to do. My modem and service is provided by Comcast however the modem is kinda old (if that is part of the problem please tell me). I need a fix if there is one.
Range (distance from modem/router to computer) is shorter on higher speeds -- N signals won't travel as far through your home as G. Walls greatly reduce range. Move the computer closer to the modem/router and see if you don't get higher speeds. Then you can decide if you need to relocate the modem/router closer to the computer. The question is, why is Wi-Fi speed important to you? Your G speed is already 10x - 20x your Internet speed. Wi-Fi speed only matters if you're doing a lot of file transfers between devices inside your network. You may be trying to solve a problem you don't have.

Does your router automatically set the ip addresses for each computer, or do you have to set them up yourself? Is the computer that can connect the one that is directly connected to the modem? if it does and you asked windows to repair the connection it probably is messed up. check in the router settings to see if your pc's are on the same ip address route (e.g 192.168.x.x), but not all the same last digit; and the subnet masks are all the same (eg 255.255.255.0)

To get to the Windows Zero Configuration settings in Windows XP:
Right click on My Computer>>Manage>>Double click on Services & Applications>>Applications.
Scroll down and right click on Windows Zero Configuration>>Properties. Make sure your start up type is Automatic and that the Service Status is Started. I hope this helps!

Comcast has a little known "trick" that they use when setting up users. Here's how it works:
When Comcast first comes to setup your new cable modem service, they insist on connecting it to your computer and "testing" it. Most people think nothing of it, and that it's good customer service ...truth be told, what they are doing is attaching your computer's MAC address to that cable modem, so that you cannot create a wireless network. This is because they want you to pay them $150 to do this for you.
In this situation, since the modem is a modem/wireless router in one, my guess is that the MAC address on your machine now does not match the MAC address on the new router, which is what Comcast has stored in their database(s).
Try this: on your computer (while connected to the modem), perform a release on your IP address (start, run, cmd, then type "ipconfig /release"). Disconnect the ethernet cable from the computer. Turn computer off completely. Hold down the reset button on the cable modem until it performs a reset. Once it's back up and running, boot up your computer with the cable back in the ethernet port.
The cable modem should assign a new address to your computer. However, that may or may not work ...this is an easy workaround with a Linksys router, but not necessarily with the all-in-one devices.
Worst case scenario: contact Comcast and notify them that the new modem is not recognizing your computer's MAC address and that it needs to be updated in their system. They will scan your computer (through the telnet interface on your modem) and get your computer's MAC address, then (hopefully) make the necessary changes on their end.
After that, everything should work flawlessly. If not, insist on a Comcast tech to "fix" the service that you are paying for.
Good luck - hope this helps :)

From the telephone outlet the dsl line (telephone line) connects to the dsl jack of the Speedstrem 4200 DSL Modem.
From the modems open port you connect one Cat5 network cable into the port (in back) of the Belkin N Wireless router.
For wireless internet connection to begin you must also do a wireless set-up on the software side of the Belkin router or through their web interface.

yes always best to use ethernet when you can.richardm69
