I had used a D-Link 704 (not the -P version, it did not have
the printer server integral but was exactly the same - they
just left the parallel port socket off the PCB and hid the
feature in the firmware) for quite a while before I went
wireless a few years back, I am sure the 704 allows you to
change the default IP address from 192.168.0.1 to a
different range.
That is what you need to do. Because only the Belkin has
DHCP enabled you should do one of two things:
1) Manually set one system to the IP range and subnet mask
of the D-Link - 192.168.0.1 and 255.255.255.0
2) Connect one system direct to the LAN port of the D-Link,
or through a switch is ok too but not through the Belkin,
the Belkin has to be not on the same network at the time.
After connecting one system to the D-Link, use the factory
reset button on it (consult manual to see how long and when
to press the button, possibly having to hold it in for 10
seconds when power is turned on). If you reset it that
enabled DHCP again to issue the IP # instead of having to
manually assign it to the connected PC, at which point you
should be able to enter the HTTP interface, change the
default IP address from 192.168.0.1 to
192.168.2.(something), disable DHCP if you had reset the
firmware, save the settings and reboot the D-Link.
Now hooking everything back up and setting the PC back to
auto/DHCP again if that were changed, your D-Link should no
longer have 192.168.0.1 IP address on it's LAN port.
If this much does not work, I would check the D-Link manual.
If you don't have it, that may be on D-link's website. If
it is not there let me know and I might have a copy of it
archived somewhere.
