On my windows vista, after i installed the cd; i am not able to setup because a window pops up saying that the "setup application/belkin router has stopped working"

Re install the software, or use the Windows Wireless Utility. Take a look at Belkin Support page: http://www.belkin.com/us/support-article?rnId=6915

Thank you for using fixya.

Being that your other computers in the network are working properly, you should switch the ip settings on your comnputer to automatically detect. That way your computer does all the routing and ip setting,

After you have set that back. Remove the power of your router, remove the power of your modem, and restart your computer.

Once your computer is back up, turn on modem, then the router.

It sounds very simple, but in most cases, it solves the problem.


Hope this information is helpful

Uninstall The Belkin Setup/Router Monitor From Control Panel

Usually when you get a new wireless card you should pop in the cd they provided and install the driver and utility from the disc. It should put an icon on your desktop and in your Program Files list. If you don't see a Belkin entry in your Program Files list then you should put the cd in and reinstall everything, which should give you the utility. I actually don't use any utilities besides the built-in Windows Wireless Zero configuration tool, which is the normal Windows wireless window that you are probably used to. So it isn't necessary to install the Belkin utility if you don't want to.

Follow this link http://en-us-support.belkin.com/app/product/list/q/routers/session/L3NpZC81UkJ5ZDdPag%3D%3D find you router and download the required software make sure you select the correct operating system ex: windows xp or vista or windows 7 or linux

Use a computer that is hard-wired (connected with an ethernet cable) to your Belkin router for this process:

1) Open Internet Explorer (or your favorite browser)

2) In the Address bar (where it says "http://www.fixya . . . " right now), delete the address that's there and type in these numbers: 192.168.2.1

3) Press the "Enter" key on your keyboard. This should open a Belkin router page. If it does NOT open a Belkin router page, follow steps 4 - 8 below. If it DOES open a Belkin router page, skip to step 9.

- - 4) Click "start" and then click "run." (On Vista, click "start")

- - 5) Type "CMD" (without the quotes) into the RUN window. (On Vista, type CMD where it says "start search.") Press the Enter key on your keyboard.

- - 6) You should now have a window open with a black background. Type "ping -r 1 www.yahoo.com" (without the quotes) and press the Enter key on your keyboard.

You will get a readout that looks something like this:

Reply from 66.94.230.43: bytes=32 time=294ms TTL=56
Route: 192.168.1.254

The number after the word "Route" is the address of your Belkin router. Write this number down.

- - 7) Close all open windows and open up Internet Explorer (or your favorite browser) again.

- - 8) Type in the address of your router.

9) On most Belkin routers, there is a section in the menu on the left that says "Wireless." Under this section is a link to "Security." Click that link, and you will see the wireless code you need to connect your laptop.

On some routers the "wireless" and "security" menus are in a different location, perhaps at the top of the page instead of on the left.

Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

Windows Vista; belkin says it's compatible. install program downloads, but desktop shortcut does not appear. When I attempt to open the file, I get error message "IP802MR MFC application has stopped working." IP802MR is the name of that file.
