Can't access wireless network after installing Linkstation Live

I have no idea what I'm doing - hubby bought this but I'm left to set it all up, and it's really beyond my understanding so totally dumbed down answers appreciated!

 

I'm working with: 

 

Linkstation Live, LS-CH1.0TL-V2, firmware 1.24

Hardwired to Belkin Wireless G router (F5D7230-4)

Desktop is hardwired to the router, and I have a laptop, an iPhone and an iPod touch that connect to the internet via a wireless network.

 

Managed to install the LS after a couple of attempts and I've mapped the drive on the desktop. Haven't got as far as setting up anything on the laptop.

 

My problem is that none of my other devices can now access the internet via the existing wireless network. They appear to connect to the network fine, but that's all. 

 

I haven't set up WebAccess yet but thought that was just for accessing the files on the LS (of which there are none thus far)? I don't really understand that either, but that's another post...

 

What am I doing wrong? 

 

Thanks!

Thats an Odd issue and have never heard of that before.  I cant see why the wireless would quit working like that.  I would start by contacting Belkin and asking them to look at the router for you.  Make sure that you have the unit plugged into one of the LAN ports not the WAN port.
