Ok so I've just recently got Wireless Internet (SiloWireless is the company), it's out here in the boonies (Country).

They installed it with a TRENDnet router, now this router is terrible, I get lots of lag when playing online games and such, so I decided to upgraqde to a Linksys Wireless-N Gigabit Router with Storage Link.

I pop the CD into the hard drive and begin to follow the instructions .. I unplug everything, then step by step begin to plug it all in, and yes it is all in the right areas. I get through almost the entire process, checks my settings, put in PPPoE username and password, all works fine it configures my router then it goes to find an internet connection and it says it cannot find an internet connection, yet it's hooked up EXACTLY like the TRENDnet router, so would anyone here know or direct me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance to anyone with help, it's much appreciated ...

I'm pretty sure I've tried everything .. it's probably just one little thing I'm not doing but can't figure it out .. do you know where I could get a better answer quicker?

You might want to try your Internet provider first. You might have a better chance of getting through to a real person and they can help you test your router with their network.
