Click on the blue Belkin Router Manager icon (right-click for Windows) in your system tray (Windows) or menu bar (Mac). 2. Select “Check for Updates” or “Update Available” from the menu. 3. You should now see the Belkin Updater window. 4. Click on the “Install Update” icon. Updating the Router’s Firmware via the Web Interface
The following steps show you how to update your Router’s firmware using its web interface. You do not need to be connected to the Internet as this interface is built into the Router itself. Setup steps: 1. Locate and download the firmware file from the Belkin support site. (Type your part number into the search box in the top right corner and look for “Firmware” in the title.) 2. Save the file to a location on your computer where you can get to it easily, such as your desktop. 3. Connect the computer to one of the four LAN ports on the Router. 4. Open a web browser on the computer. 5. In the address bar of the web browser, type “http://192.168.2.1” and press “Enter” on your keyboard. 6. Click “Login” in the upper right-hand corner of the page. The Router does not ship with a password, so just click “Submit”.
7. Click on “Firmware Update” toward the bottom of the left-hand menu. 8. Click the “Browse” button toward the middle of the screen to search for the file you saved previously. Note: The firmware version in the images below is depicted as an example. Your file name will vary depending on your model and version. 9. Select the firmware file by left-clicking on it and then click the “Open” button in the lower-right corner of the window. This will take you back into the Router’s interface.
10. Click the “Update” button. 11. A prompt asking, “Are you sure you want to continue with upgrading?” will appear. Click “OK”. 12. A second prompt will open telling you the Router will not respond during the upgrade and warning you not to remove the power supply from the Router. Click “OK” once more. Congratulations. The firmware has been updated successfully. Resetting the Router Reset Button – Red The “Reset” button is used in rare cases when the Router may function improperly. Resetting the Router will restore the Router’s normal operation while maintaining the programmed settings. You can also restore the factory default settings by using the “Reset” button. Use the restore option in instances where you may have forgotten your custom password. Resetting the Router Push and release the “Reset” button. The lights on the Router will momentarily flash. The “Router” light will begin to blink. When the “Router” light becomes solid again, the reset is complete. Restoring Your Router to Factory Defaults Press and hold the “Reset” button for at least 10 seconds, and then release it. The lights on the Router will momentarily flash. The “Router” light will begin to blink. When the “Router” light becomes solid again, the restore is complete.
Restoring the Router to Default Settings Using the Web Interface Symptoms You need to restore the factory defaults using the web interface. This may be because the Router is not performing as expected or you wish to remove all previously configured settings. Setup steps: 1. Open a web browser on the computer. 2. In the address bar of the web browser, type “http://192.168.2.1”. 3. Click “Login” in the upper right-hand corner of the page. The Router does not ship with a password, so just click “Submit”. 4. Click on “Restore Factory Defaults” in the left-hand column under the “Utilities” heading. 5. Click on the “Restore Defaults” button. 6. A warning box will open that says, “Warning: All your settings will be lost. Are you sure you want to do this?” Click “OK”.
7. The Router will begin the restoring process. Once the restore is complete, the Router will reboot. Note: This may take several minutes. Your Router has successfully been restored to its factory settings.

Other factors that will cause signal degradation (metal is generally the worst culprit) are obstructions such as walls and metal appliances. Note also that connection speed may decrease as you move farther away from the Router. In order to determine if wireless issues are related to range, we suggest temporarily moving the computer within 10 feet from the Router if possible. Changing the wireless channel—Depending on local wireless traffic and interference, switching the wireless channel of your network can improve performance and reliability. See the section titled “Changing the Wireless Channel” for instructions on how to choose other channels. Limiting the wireless transmit rate—Limiting the wireless transmit rate can help improve range and connection stability. Most wireless cards have the ability to limit the transmission rate. To change this property in Windows, go to the Windows Control Panel, open “Network Connections”, and double-click on your wireless card’s connection. In the properties dialog, select the “Configure” button on the “General” tab, then choose the “Advanced” tab and select the rate property.
Wireless client cards are usually set to automatically adjust the wireless transmit rate for you, but doing so can cause periodic disconnects when the wireless signal is too weak; as a rule, slower transmission rates are more stable.
