Are you using DSL (hence INTERNET from the Phone Company) or CABLE?

Is the "Internet Router" the modem or another router in between the Belkin and modem?

If it is another Router than you have to ensure (as ScottC wrote) to setup the Belkin otherwise it will not work. Also make sure that you have plugged the wire from the "Internet Router" into the WAN port of the Belkin.
