??? NO cables plugged into the router and the Ethernet light on the cable modem goes off?

Do you mean ONLY the cable from the router to the modem is plugged in? If so, is it straight-through or cross-over? (NTL peeps - which should it be, or doesn't it matter?)

Just to be clear - the WAN port on the router should be plugged into the CM. the Workstation should be plugged into the router, and the lap-top should connect wirelessly through the router.
