Wireless router woes

[TommyV]

We have a 'Belkin Wireless G Plus MIMO Router'

We now have more devices on the network (laptops/xboxes/phones etc) than the IP ranges would allow, so I removed the entries within the given field when connecting to 192.168.2.1, and reset the router, assuming that there would now be no ranges, and anything could connect.

Now absolutely no device can connect to the router before, and I've no idea how to get back into the router to (presumably) need to setup the I.P ranges again, we cannot connect to it at all. Only way I can get onto the internet is by directly connecting the ethernet from the modem into my laptop.

Any ideas?

I'll be looking into more at work tomorrow, but if anyone can think of or knows any easy fixes for my idiocy, please let me know, much appreciated!

Cheers,
tommy

Presumably it has a reset button you can use to return it to factory settings? Once it's reset you shouldn't have a problem reconnecting. If you can't connect using wireless a cable should work.

A reset will wipe all of the existing configuration, so it'll need redoing from scratch once you're reconnected.

A default 192.168.n.n address range will allow 253 devices to connect. If you're running out of addresses something strange is going on.

Thanks bremen,

Resolved now, turns out I wasn't holding down the reset button long enough.
