Replacing a hard drive usually involves reinstalling an operating system and drivers for all devices.

Did you...
1. Install correct chipset drivers?
2. Install correct network drivers?
3. Configure correct network IP settings?

If so, the router should be pingable from a command prompt with the command ping RouterIPAddress.
