Hi Julie Surprised to hear that, as I've found the Belkins I've set up for clients work very well with all iPhones, iPads, Mac's and even Windows machines, both off Ethernet and wireless as well. Normally Belkin is one of my recommendations. The other brands I tend to work with are Netgear and Billion. Both (and Belkin as well normally) I recommend and find work well with everything. Fairly easy to set up.
Personally (and this is my own experience, so others may differ), I'm not a big fan of Netcomm or D-Link. I find them to be a bit un-reliable and don't last as long. (I've gone through 3 Netcomm modems with a client and they only last about 9 months before falling over. All covered by warranty, but still a pain in downtime and swapping them out for a new one....) Just my 2cents with anyway. However, if it's a setting, then a new modem may do the same as well. So if the Belkin isn't too old a model, may be worth revisiting the settings for it,....as another idea as well ;) Hope that helps.
