Most wireless systems have an option to show local wireless devices (so you can find one to connect to) and their channel so choose a channel not being used by another device.
You may be getting interference from some other equipment or your neighbours or something outside that is affecting / interfering with the signal.

The file I used is 1.37MB, and author "Option^Explicit Software Solutions", the same as claimed on the referenced site. Also I have a C:\ERDNT registry backup folder as described on that site, so I've no reason to doubt the authenticity of the file.
However it is an executable file, please satisfy yourself about its safety before you run it.
Prior to running that "fix" file the Windows Zero wireless management application allowed connection to the Internet but Belkin's manager would only connect to the router (describing the connection as "limited connectivity"). After I ran the "fix" both managers supported Internet connectivity.
If you do try the file I'd appreciate feedback here to let me know the result.

I am still at the same situation i.e I cannot use my wireless network connection, from PC to router, to access the Internet. My LAN works OK through the router and my laptop uses the wireless connection to the router. In WNC the signal from the PCI G+ card is full strength but I cannot connect to it. The router has encryption on it but I know what the key is of course. I've even tried disabling the encryption with no difference. I've run the fix file again with no improvement.
Thinking that the PCI wireless card may be faulty I got a replacement from PC World as the original was under warranty. No difference.
Any ideas guys? Thanks
John

It's early days but I maaayy have solved it. I uninstalled the Belkin wireless card and software. Re-booted, reinstalled the Belkin s/w, shut down and moved the wireless card to another slot, rebooted and the install software loaded more files off the CD which had not happened before. ATM it is working but its early days so fingers crossed.
Thanks
John

My next task is to back up the hard drive and then uninstall all the Windows updates to see what happens. As you say "clutching at straws"
Cheers
