Help with Belkin N1 Router & Virginmedia ISP

[Dimuc]

I am wondering if some one could help me? I use Virginmedia broadband 20mb cable. I recently upgraded my router from a D-link 54g to Belkin N1 router. Since then I can serve the net great from the different computers on my network, but sometimes I can get virginmedia then other times I can't, same with emails, on all the computers, then I can get it on one, but not another, but can still serve other web pages, same with emails. Went back to D-link router no problem, then connected modem direct to computer no problem, then reconnected Belin N1 router problem starts again, also Virginmedia have changed the modem but still same problem. I have contacted Belkin technical support, but end up in Indian call centre, and I am finding it hard to get myself understood by them, so please could anybody help me?

I am experiencing exactly the same problem using a new Belkin N1 and Virgin as my ISP. I have exchanged a couple of messages with Belkin Support to little avail thus far - perhaps you could let me know if you have managed to resolve the problem yet, please.

(I did notice a firmware update on the Belkin site that was needed due to problems connecting with a specific ISP in the Netherlands - perhaps we need a similar fix here!)
Cheers, Rodd.

I have bought a Netgear N router, and this works fantastic, then I have sold the Belkin N1 on Ebay, got �70.00 for it so lost about �20.00 on the hole, but now receive Virginmedia fantastically, but all in all with loosing �20 selling router approx �20 in phone calls its cost a lot and caused alot of hassle. I would advise you to sell it, and buy another one.

Hi Dimuk
