How to Change the Channel on a Belkin Wireless Router

Having issues with dropped signal or spotty connections when using a Belkin router?  Other appliances or devices could be interfering with the signal being broadcast from the router.  Please use these instructions to change the channel on a Belkin router and hopefully you can resolve these issues.

  1. Open a web browser and go to http://192.168.2.1/.
  2. Click Login in the upper right hand corner of the page that appears.
  3. When prompted, type your password and click Submit (if you didn't create a password, just click Submit).
  4. Click on Channel and SSID on the left under the Wireless Heading.
  5. The router may be set to Auto for the channel selection. Try changing it to channel 1, 6, or 11.
  6. Click Apply changes near the bottom of the screen.
  7. If wireless, your computer will temporarily disconnect while the computer joins the network on the new channel.
