These are the various method in setting up both the wired and wireless Belkin router with CD and without CD.

Basic step before proceeding with any of the troubleshooting steps lets power-cycle modem and router.

1. Unplug the power cord of your Internet Modem.
2. Power off the router by unplugging the Belkin router from the power outlet (electric wall socket) as well. (IMPORTANT: Leave both the devices off for at least 60 seconds).
3. Then power on Internet modem first by plugging power cord back in and wait for 60 seconds until all the lights gets steady.
4. Once you see all the lights lit on the modem power on your Belkin router by plugging the power adapter into an electric outlet.

Now see if you can access internet if not reboot your computer and check for internet connectivity. This is the easiest workaround to fix any modem-router issues.

Routers connect a local area network -- a collection of one or more computer devices -- to a wide area network such as the Internet. You can set up a Belkin router in your home or office to enable your computers tablets smartphones and gaming systems to use the Internet at the same time. Modern Belkin routers include a CD that automates the setup process but if you're using an older model or lost the setup disc you can configure the Belkin router manually.

Click "Apply Changes".
