1. Disable your XP firewall: go to the control panel, double click on Windows Firewall, check the disable box. Then configure Norton: Configuring Norton Internet Security (different instructions)

2. Generally Belkin work best when port forwarded; go here & find your model & follow directions carefully: http://portforward.com/routers.htm
