Hi Rich,
Go to this web site:
<http://www.belkin.com/us/support-article?rnId=6939>
There you will find instructions on how to deal with all sorts of
Belkin routers. They had info for my (very old) wireless unit,
and a couple of links to what looks to be yours. (Basically, it
looks like just hooking your computer directly to your router and
using your browser to open <http://192.168.2.1> should do it. But
you're best off checking yourself, just to be sure.)
This was one of the few times that Google has failed me. Googling
for Belkin 900N gave me many pages of sites wanting to sell
things to me. Googling for "Belkin 900N" gave me *one* site: a
FixMe troubleshooting site for Apple products. Bad Google, bad,
bad. No biscuit!
Anyway, I hope this helps.
Happy <insert-holiday-here> season! :-)
