Hello,
I have a Belkin Wireless Router. I have one computer wired to it and
another I use wirelessly. Everything is fine when WEP securitiy is
disabled. However when I access the Router through my wired computer,
go to the setup page (192.168.2.1), click on Encryption and select the
64-bit manual option and enter my key and select 'Apply Changes,' the
router does not save the setting. It always reverts back to 'Disabled.'
I also tried with 128-bit, but the router is not accepting any security
it seems like.

Are you using Internet Explorer? If not, try it, some Websites
(including some built-in webservers on SoHo devices) don't always work
properly without paying homage to our overlords in Redmond.

If that's not it, try (re)flashing the latest firmware and resetting
the unit to factory defaults. If different firmwares map NVRAM
differently they may get themselves wedged without a full reset.

Thanks William, that was it. I was using Firefox.
