Hello,

I have bought a belkin skype phone and cannot get it to connect to my orange livebox. I have tried the DHCP ip address and also setting the thing up manually with some settings found on the internet for ip address and dns etc. Both methods resulted in the phone saying that it was not issued with an ip address. Can anyone help with this please?

Thanks and Merry Christmas

Welcome to Geekzone... I don't know the specifications of the Orange LiveBox, but check that it's not configured to 802.11g only, and that it matches the wireless LAN types the Belkin Skype phone uses.

Also check that there's no MAC address filtering in action on the LiveBox.
