When i hook up my router , it cannot be plugged up too the computer to give off internet, so my desktop no longer has internet when the router is hooked up

check your router for proper settings.does the router give your desktop a ip address if plug in to the router only.either the modem or router does the dhcp.is the modem in bridge mode? check the settings on both

take the cable from the modem (with the little larger that a regular phone clear plastic connector on it) plug this into the back of the router to the port labeled WAN or Internet or it sits off by itself (while any other ports on the back of the router are grouped together) or could be a different color. Next take another RJ-45 network cable (just like the one that you just plugged in, with the little larger clear plastic phone connector at each end) into the network port on the back of your computer (it only fits one way and only in that port, may or may not be labeled, usually is above the USB ports on desktop computers). Plug in the power to the modem (if necessary), then the power to the router then finally turn on the computer. give it a few minutes and you should get a valid IP addy and then be connected to the internet, if not and you have to re-configure the router, post back here & we can answer that for you (or log in remotely and do it for you). Hope this helps ;-)

1.You should have a modem you received from your ISP (Internet Service Provider).
2.Plug the Ethernet Cord Into the Internet port of your router.
3.If you have a desktop computer plug in the ethernet cord into one of 4 ports of the router.
4.Open you wireless connections and connect to the internet.

Is there a NIC in the Gateway? A place to plug in a cat 5 cable? If yes, there is your answer. You will need a place to plug in the other end ... if you dont have a router, you will need one. I recommend LinkSys routers though there are other brands.

If you have no NIC, get a PCI based NIC at the Big Box Store. They can tell you how to put it in or for a small fee, they will do it for you.

Try turning OFF DHCP from services. This may fix your problem. Look for "DHCP Client", double click on it (or right click and choose properties), STOP the service, then set it's startup type to 'manual'. That'll kill it. See DHCP is what "Gives out/assigns addresses" and on the ONLY PC, it is the First one... 192.168.0.1... Both PC's will be assigning themselves as that, and that will cause a conflict. As the Router now does the DHCP work. Of course ensure you DO have DHCP set on router.

Hello, Under the wireless menu on router you must give a ssid name and enable and save to turn on wireless , hoe this helps?

Make sure DHCP is turned off on the modem or else you will get ip conflicts. Also make sure it is plugged into the wan port on the router

The only "installation" you need for the router is to connect it to the modem, plug in the power and, if it's a wired router, to connect it to the computer.

Then configure your computer's internet connection to connect to the router. (How you do that depends on which operating system the computer is running.)

If you're getting a wireless connection with no router, you're connecting to someone else's router - which is both illegal and dangerous (it gives them access to your computer).

Ah, you can no longer use the modem or the Blitzz screen to connect to your Internet connection. You'll need to patch another Ethernet cord from the router to your Ethernet port on your computer and it should automatically connect. If you still get prompted to dial, open up Internet Explorer and ignore any prompts to dial and then click Tools, then Internet Options, then click the Connections tab at the top, then click the selection to Never Dial a Connection. Confirm your choice by clicking OK and then try browsing the Internet like usual.
