You haven't told us what you tried and what happens when you do. Error
messages (exact text)?

Generally, have the computer attached to the Belkin with an ethernet
cable. Open a browser. If you have difficulties with IE, install Firefox
and use it instead. In the browser's addressbar, type:

http://192.168.2.1 [enter]

If the above doesn't work, try only typing the IP address without the
http://.

This should bring you to the router's login screen. Enter the default
user/password (refer to the manual) and go into the configuration utility.

I can't seem to access this page, I have tried it wi and without the router
with no luck. It keeps showing a 'this page can not be displayed. I have
even tried to access it via my laptop with the same result.

I don't know what "tried it with and without the router" means. How can
you configure a router without the router? Possibly the best solution is
for you to call Belkin tech support or have a knowledgeable friend
(someone who is really knowledgeable and not just saying s/he is) come
over to help you. Or have a local computer professional come over - not
someone from BigComputerStore/GeekSquad. I just can't make out what you
are or aren't doing from what you're writing.

Sorry that I was unable to help you.
