Welcome to the forum

If it's a wired connection (ethernet) then you don't need the install disk, just set up the ethernet conenction to "Aquire an address automatically"

If USB then you should change over to ethernet as USB will only give you about 6-7Mbps instead of full speed

would i have to take away the wireless router and start fresh from the modem?

IF you are using a Wireless Router you don't need the disc anyway

Where did you get the router from, and what model is it?

[GarysStewart]

its the one supplied by virgin media for the 20 meg internet

What model specifically i.e. what does it say on the label
