Most likely, it's known that some routers have software as well as hardware problems and the only way to fix it is to replace it.

Before replacing it try to update firmware, if it did not help, replace the router.

How do you connect computer to locked router?

Most routers have a reset switch in the back. You need to connect the computer to the router using a LAN Cable. Press and HOLD the reset button (you might need a pen) until the lights reset on the router. This will reset the router's current settings and reset the router to default. From there, you may need to reset your routers passwords and other settings. Best way is with your connected computer to your router, using your internet browser's address bar, put in the ip address displayed on your lan connection icon. Most routers have a setup menu flashed into the hardware. If it asks for username/password, check the model's website for default username and password. From there, you should be able to reestablish a new password in the security tab for your router. (Also, if you have an install disk, then you can install the same stuff to your pc where you can modify your settings, which may be easier for the less technical)

You will need to locate and read the manual if you cannot get to Belkin's support site online.
