I need some help setting up a wireless network. I just bought a router and hooked it up, but I couldn't get internet access. Basically, I ran the phone line through my modem, then used an ethernet cable to connect the modem to the router and another ethernet cable to connect the router to the PC. Now, I can't get internet access on either my PC or Laptop (although I am picking up the routers signal).

However, I can still get internet access when I disconnect the router and hook the modem straight to me PC. Does anyone ahve any idea what the problem might be?

you need to go into the router settings....check the manual. Some routers have a default setting of 192.168.1.1 for example.
