    Wireless Router Not Working Properly
    I just got a new laptop with a wireless card in it, and I got a wireless router as well, I tried running the setup guide but it didn't work from the CD, so I connected the router to my modem with the cable provided, my laptop will connect to the router, but it won't access the internet... My neibours have wireless I am guessing cause I can jump onto theirs if I want to... Maybe I missed a step? Anyone know the real steps from the beginning to take?
    Thanks!

    Generally, the easiest way is to set up the cable modem/DSL modem in bridge mode and have the new wireless router handle the PPPOE, DHCP and NAT.
