you need a cable router not a dsl one :welcome:

If your router is cable compatible (must have an ethernet enabled WAN port, and no onboard ADSL modem), simply power off the modem, and PC(s), ethernet the modem to router WAN, ethernet the rotuer LAN(s) to PC(s). Then power modem, router, PC(s).

To add wireless stuff get a wired internet connection going to a PC from the modem via router, then set up the wireless.
