BELCOM 802.11g ADSL Modem/Router/Wireless Access Point.

Hi,
Just tried to set one of these up for a friend and failed. I can't see it
on either wireless card I have tried. The manual says the WLAN light should
light, but in my case it does not. Any one have one and can tell me what it
should show.

I call it "usenet question syndrome" :-)

This is the one with the ADSL modem, I have a predecessor. Have you
looked at its web interface on 192.168.2.1 (slightly unconventional)
to see if it thinks wireless is enabled. I don't know the default on
this model but I vaguely remember having to talk to mine via wired
ethernet to enable the wireless.

UK firmware update to v1.04.03UK at

It appears to be enabled by default. Tried enable/disable once I had found
the panel on the browser and nogo

Tried that and it won't load. Says something like "invalid user interface"

Rang the Belkin support line and they said "take it back" (its new)
