How do i know if the router is working, i would not be online if it was not
working.
i know i could connect direct to the internet hub, as i am on broadband.
i could provide the model number but i already know the ip for the router
for its site
and i have the manual, which does not help. cos it does not mention anything
about linux.

all of what you are saying is avoiding the main issue of what i am trying to
ask. i know for
a fact that some things dont work with linux and some need drivers for them
to work.

when i had the D-Link router and used my scanner on the network ip's i was
able to see
all the computers connected to the router. but with this Belkin router and
use the scanner
i can only see my windows computers on the list, but not the linux computer.
so all i am
asking is if anyone know if Belkin routers work with linux (with or without
drivers).

sorry if i did not explain correctly, i thought i would just a basic
question and would get
yes it works or no it does not. also just let you know that i am more than
general user
of a computer, just not very good with linux, less than i would like to be.
i hope this
explains on what i am trying to say.
