I forgot the passcode on my router and I can't get on line with my laptop, my question is how can I change the passcode if I dont have the old one. Please advise how. Iam new to PC
If you hit the reset button on your router you can restore it to factory defaults. then, you can log into the default IP address of your router and change the password to what you want. This is the only way to change it- being able to change your password without having the old one would be a GLARING security hole. If you update your question with the model # of your belkin I can find the manual online. It will list the default IP address, username and password that you will need to access it after the reset.

looks like the reset button is right under the antenna on the back and to the left of the dc plug.
Restoring the Factory Defaults
Press and hold the “Reset” button for at least 10 seconds,
then release it. The lights on the Router will momentarily
flash. The Power/Ready light will begin to blink. When the
Power/Ready light becomes solid again, the restore
is complete.
once that's done you can login by typing 192.168.2.1 into the address bar of your browser. the default login info is Username: Administrator and Password:
