You dont need a Cdrom to set this up.

Open IE or any other browser and type in http://192.168.1.254 (Default)
then input your dsl info and walla you should be good for default dsl connection.

Here's a driver-free, software-free solution.

Turn your cable-modem (or DSL-modem) off.
Turn your Netopia off.

Connect:

Ethernet--port on cable-modem <-- cable --> WAN port on Netopia.

One LAN port on Netopia <-- cable --> network-port on your computer.

Turn the cable-modem on, and wait until its lamps settle-down to a repeating pattern.

Turn the Netopia open, and wait until its lamps settle-down to a repeating pattern.

Restart your computer.

Click Start
Click Run
Type CMD
Press Enter
Type IPCONFIG
Press Enter
Look for output like: Default Gateway ... 192.168.123.456
Start Internet Explorer
Type http://192.168.123.456 (or whatever numbers you see)
Login to the web-server running "inside" the Netopia.
Click to run the "Wireless Networking Setup Wizard".
Enter an SSID of your choice.
Select the 'WPA' level of encryption.
Enter a network-password of your choice.
Click OK
Restart the router (if it did not automatically restart).

Disconnect the Ethernet cable from your computer's network-port.
Click "View Available Wireless Networks".
Click the SSID of your new network.
Click Connect.
Enter the password, when prompted.
Voila! You have a wireless connection to the internet.

reset your router to factory default....look for a small button on the router and keep pressing it until all the lights blink together at once.....do reply back

Change your LAN Cable and check...

if you can, enable PNP on the router . It will then discover devices that require ports opened and do it automatically.

If there are additional ethernet ports (looks like a large phone cord port) on the back of your router, you can connect one of the ethernet ports on the back of the router with the ethernet port on the back of your computer, using a patch cable, which is category 5/5e cable with the large phone plugs on each end.

Or, you will need to purchase a wireless adaptor for your computer, preferrably a Netopia brand.
