What might help is disconnecting the wireless adaptor temporarily,
reboot, go into the ZA settings, and configure the LAN side of the
router as "trusted" - i.e. 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.255 (assuming the
Belkin uses 192.168.0.1 as the router interface)
I could be completely wrong in this, i'll be brutally honest, but I
think that would put any machines on the "inside" of the LAN within a
safe zone for file sharing etc, whereas any traffic coming from
outside would be from the internet zone.
I'll open the floor to anyone who can advise further on this, as I
admit that networking is a weak spot of mine. All I know is that's how
I configure mine, and i've had no problems over the last 4 years or so
:-}
