I have had a Belkin high speed wireless G Router connected to a Linksys
ADSL2MUE modem and have had no trouble with the Host computer or my wi-fi
enabled laptop.I've purchased a Dell computer for my Son,put it in the
bedroom,and fitted a Belkin USB wireless adaptor.It was ok for the Internet
for first 30mins and stopped working.it seems i have "limited or no
connection" due to computer not being assigned an I.P.address.Please help
with advice.
Belkin support was poor and my ISP doesn't advise on 3rd party hardware!
thanks,in anticipation,
smc

I suppose that you have DHCP enabled on your
unit. However, I use different access points around
the country and run into this frequently. From my
standpoint it usually was resolved by somehow
adjusting the received signal strength. Moving the
antenna around etc. Too little will produce the
problem. And it seems to require just the right
amount of signal strength to cure the problem when
using a strange AP. Luck!!

My Belkin network card on my laptop did the same thing. This may help.

From the Start Menu select RUN and enter the word command or cmd.

Then type in these entries

ipconfig
ipconfig/release
ipconfig/renew
exit

It may just force the router to assign a new and working ip address to
the new laptop.
