Do you have a specific proxy set up on your IE, if you do, then this needs to be an exception as otherwise IE looks to the proxy to find the page and cannot find it.

In IE
Tools > internet options > Connections Tab > LAN settings button
at the bottom of that screen there is the proxy box, check it is unticked.

matey...the belkin is a MODEM ROUTER so you dont need your BT Voyager modem anymore.

lol yeah i know,what i was trying to was how do i get it to connect like my old adsl modem,i have a auto detect ip address so that means i have a dynamic sumthing or other,gone through all the settings as it says but it still not connect,i know i am doing something wrong?but what lol i have gone through the set up exactly as it says.
