    Hi…!
    i have a belkin router device N750 DB Wireless N+ Router (Model: F9K1103v1)
    when i turn-on the router device, a stable orange light appears(with no internet access) instead of blue light(sign of internet access).
    i started to use a shared connection from another router.
    How can i diagnose it?
    Please let me as soon as posssible!

  3. First, check your isp Service than we Would Suggest to Reset the Belkin Router using the reset Key. update the Firmware & setup Belkin Again like a fresh Router.

  4. Hello i have a problem staying connected with the internet with my Belkin AC1200 DB Wireless Router. At random times throughout the day/night it will have a solid blue light but no internet connection at all. any attempts to fix this issue involving changing DNS address and other minor things don’t fix my problem. The only thing that works is to unplug the router for 10 seconds then plug it back in. Connecting to the router during these times says that the router has timed out when i try to access it. Considering that the internet failures (not on the ISP’s side) are random and without warning, i would like to know if this problem is unique or something that can be fixed?
