Some of the basics. Power off the modem, before connecting your new router, then power on. The modem won't detect the new connection unless you do this.

The only password you should need is one for the router itself. You'll need that to setup the wireless security and stuff, but get a wired connection running first. If the router is second hand, do a reset to factory settings, the manual should show the default router password.

I am of course assuming that you have a cable compatible router, i.e. it does not have a built in ADSL modem.
