Ahhhh...didn't realise the password would be reset too.

The good news is I've managed, some how, get it working and I'm wirelessly connected as we speak, as is my wife. Thanks for your help and useful comments, I really appreciate all your input with my rather dumb questions ^

Despite Google and the Belkin website we haven't figured out how to secure the wireless network with a password, though I was able to get the MAC numbers for each of our laptops and only allowed those which is just as good by the sounds of things.
