Jody, does your system even see your network card? Can you ping the loopback address, or manually assign it an ip and ping it? I'm not familiar with the belkin, but if it's like the Linksys firewall router I use at home, can you ping the default gateway address on it? Need a little more information to determine what exactly is happening here. Anthony
