I also have this problem very often. All my devices have a hostname defined. Usually it appears on the Belkin display but some unknown.x appear in addition. Using the "list DHCP clients" on belkin web interface shows only real client host names, not the unknown.x. I have time lease 1 hour. Even after this, unknown remain on the display. I have mac restriction on filtering (LAN & Wifi) so there is no hidden device connected.
Any idea on how this solve this issue would be appreciated. Thanks

DHCP Host name is what your looking for.
you need to name each item ie. psp as psp and ps3 as ps3 when you setup each item for connection. so when you setup or edit the settings for your ps3 on your ps3 you need to look for DHCP Host name and name it ps3. etc
do the same for all.
SOURCE: belkin wireless router not assigning IPs for wireless clients
Some routers start handing out DHCP wireless IP's at 192.168.2.100. Try setting the upper limit at .110. If the router is found in a site survey (view wireless networks) but cannot connect, the limitation would be why.

SOURCE: need to add a computer to the DHCP client list of Belkin router
You can't add a computer to DHCP Client table manually, because DHCP client table is automatic. If you wanna know the MAC address of your computer, go to Start > Run > type CMD and press enter. On the command prompt type in IPCONFIG/ALL and look for Physical Address. That is also the MAC Address of your computer.

This problem is difficult to trace.
You could be getting some kind of elecrical/wireless interference. This is difficult to trace. If you have the TV on when the router drops off, have you noticed any electrical interference on the TV screen?
It could be as simple as someone using an arc welder in your area.
Or a neighbour heating up something in their microwave oven (this oven can be faulty and is leaking microwave energy).
If you can identify the source of interference then you may find a solution.
There are a few things you can try.
Get a surge protection power board and connect your computer equipment and wireless router to this power board.
You can configure the wireless router to a different channel, one that is not used by your neighbours so that the wireless signals won't interfer with each other.
Have a look at the signal strength to your computer, if it is weak then move the router away from walls and/or raise it higher to improve the signal strength.
