Make sure you have powered off the modem when you change the connection between modem <> router. The modem won't see the new router until you do that.

Connection should then work normally without a need for changes, unless you had something specific for your wireless before.

modem <ethernet> router WAN (internet) port
router LAN <ethernet> computer #1
router LAN <ethernet> computer #1
router <wireless> computer(s)

Setup the wired stuff before you log into the router and setup the wireless.
