I have a win7 Home premium sp1 computer hooked through a D-link switch DGS1008G to a Belkin N150 router model # F9K1001V4 and from there to Hughesnet modem HN9000 with all wired connections at this time. There are several other things hooked to the switch (radio transmitter and endec emergency alert system device) that I access via the computer at ip addresses 192.168.2.3 and .4 respectively.
I had a power outage and afterwards the router went wonky. When I connect directly from the pc to the modem, I have no internet problems at all. But now when I go from the pc directly to the router, or through the switch to the router, the router light is solid amber, and 192.168.2.1 shows NOT connected. The internet connection actually works ok sometimes and sometimes does not connect at all, but regardless, it still shows amber and not connected.
I have done various sequences the Belkin people suggested, including power reset the modem, then the router, then reset factory defaults on the router then clone mac address on the router, but the internet connection still shows not connected, and amber. It may flash blue for a second during reset, but then goes back to solid amber.
I think I have checked all the cables one by one using the pc to modem direct connection and gotten internet connection, or connection through the switch to my other devices ok.
What do I need to do to get reliable internet connection and the correct blue light and 'connected' indications on the router?
