Belkin wireless router faulty - replacement?

Oct 24, 2006 3 Replies

My Belkin ADSL modem wireless router I bought last year broke down a few days ago. I'm assuming its faulty because the thing basically couldn't start up but there was power coming on.



Anyway, called the tech support guy (sounded a bit dodgy to me as he was like a cold caller) and told him the problem. He suggested a few possible solutions which I already did before making the call but to no avail. Then he told me a replacement has been requested but said nothing about returning my router back, he also didn't ask when I bought it.



Is it me or is it just weird that Belkin are not asking for the router back? because I read that people had to send their routers back in order to get the replacement. Any of you had this experience before?

I had a problem where I got the new one the next day and still kept the old one. Ken

they didn't ask for any proof that their hardware blew up on you..?

No. I am in the UK so not sure if different attitudes. They quizzed me and asked me to plug in do things and report what was happening. They said it was bust.
