The yellow port goes to your modem, then 1 of the black ones go to your PC.

hey man i'm interning at a networking company this summer i know a little bit about networking...who's ur ISP?

EDIT: no name dropping, had to edit

That's what i did. I put the yellow one in the modem and in the yellow square in the router, and i put the other one in my pc and in the square next to the yellow one. Nothing seems to work! I really need help =(Crotazoa8

Ok go to 192.168.0.1 (for netgear routers), use/pass is admin/admin or admin/pass by default.

Take a look in the settings page and see if the router is being given a IP, and see if your computer is listed in attached devices or something along those lines. If its not being given a IP, restart the router AND modem, take the power out and leave them off for like 15secs.

If your computer doesnt show up, but your router has a IP, come back here.
