    More information needed - what model number is it - what have you entered and what exactly is not working? can you get a net connection is the wireless working etc and the inevitable question have you read the manual?

    I spent quite a while yesterday setting up the Belkin wireless router (F5D7230-4) with my BT ZyXel Prestige 600 series modem. It was frustrating at times, but I think these steps should get you up and running in no time;

    BT ZyXel Prestige Modem;
    1) In the web configurator (192.168.1.1) select the following settings;
    Mode - Routing
    Encapsulation - PPPoE
    Multiplex - LLC
    Virtual Circuit ID:
    VPI - 8
    VCI - 35

    Click Next

    2) Enter broadband id and password from BT (make sure "@iolbb" is after your username)
    3) Make sure "Obtain IP Address automatically" is selected. The rest should be fine

    Click through until finished.

    Belkin Wireless Router (F5D7230-4);
    1) Go the the web configurator in your browser (192.168.2.1)
    2) Under the heading "Internet WAN" on the left, select "Connection Type" and choose 'Dynamic'
    3) Make sure the "Internet Status" on the top right says "Connected" (in green text). You will never get an internet connection until this says 'Connected'
    4) Logout

    NB: You may need to wait some time (30mins or so) before trying to use the internet. This happened to me. I had no connection straight after making the above changes, but after going out for 3 hours and returning it was working fine.

    Let me know how you get on!

    Good luck.
