I can't connect to my router

I just bought a new router and I can't get Arch Linux to connect to it. It's a Belkin N600

Re: I can't connect to my router

???

You need to provide a *lot* more information.  Or ... at least some.  What have you tried?  What error messages do you get from executing the proper commands?  Have you actually executed any commands?

Re: I can't connect to my router

Follow the manual connection steps on the wireless page of the wiki.  If/when there is an error in one of those steps, say which step failed, and provide the actual error message.

FYI: I just did a very quick google search on this device (which you should have done, and talked about in your OP) and found some posts claiming that this device requires ndiswrapper to work in linux.  However these posts are from several years ago - kernel device support has advanced *a lot* since then.  So one can hope this will now be properly supported, but you may want to do some checking on this.
