Belkin router when connected will send wireless signal but will not allow mother computer to gain access to internet. tried bridging on dsl, and pinging. when i called belkin the @#$%^& told me it was a firewall problem and to contact windows. even after all firewalls were off. i am under the impression that wireless routers should not do this. please help!! thanks

Assuming your router is set correctly to your modem or the password and username are set correctly in a modem/router, make sure DHCP is enabled in the router, this gives each pc an ip address automatically.
Go to open internet explorer>tools>internet options>connections tab and ensure never dial a connection is ticked or greyed out. close IE
go to network connections, right click on your wireless adapter>properties>highlight TCP/IP line>properties and make sure that obtain an ip address automatically is ticked.
Open up internet explorer again and click refresh a few times, it will detect the proxy server then should connect, if not then the router configuration is wrong.
